docs(frank-dragoon): the 401,408-position pool is live; every figure re-keyed to the boot ledger

Deployed 2026-10-18 (e2e 33/33). The boot ledger prints
`reserving the KV pool, 401408 positions (about 11.0 GiB)` and
`62.9 GiB of weights locked … 11.0 GiB of KV pool, 5.7 GiB of working memory,
79.6 GiB in all`, so the ~10.8 GiB that every page quoted from the
~28 KiB/position arithmetic is replaced by the reservation the engine actually
makes (11.0) and its preflight bill (11.3). Host MemAvailable fell 26 -> 22 GiB
across the raise: the FLAGS.md collision (pool RAM is n-gram page cache) paid in
full, so the warm prompt-cache ratio is flagged as the number to watch.

All "committed but not yet deployed" clauses retired: AGENTS.md topology row,
KV-pool law and memory ledger, frank-dragoon.env lore, both index pages, the
iommu page, and the runbook chronology (third production boot recorded).

The sweep also caught the LLM index still describing frank-zealot as
Bonsai-2-27B at 2 x 200,704 in its intro and topology diagram - re-keyed to the
live 9B: 8 full-attention + 24 Gated DeltaNet + blk.32 MTP, 3 x 262,144,
tensor type 141.

verified in its `flash_serve` `/proc/<pid>/environ` and in the host-deployed
`frank-dragoon.env` — and the 2026-10-18 boot ledger reserves `the KV pool,
200704 positions (about 5.5 GiB)` with `74.1 GiB in all`
(`/home/dank/logs/frank_dragoon.log`). Until the next
`./scripts/deploy.sh dankclaw --service frank-dragoon`, the boot ledger keeps
printing `2 slots over ONE 200704-position KV pool`; the first boot at the
new pool must show `ONE 401408-position KV pool` and the ~10.8 GiB
reservation — read that line before quoting 401,408 as live anywhere.

`2 slots over ONE 401408-position KV pool, each request up to 200704 (it

`62.9 GiB of weights locked in RAM (0.8 of them the vision tower's), 11.0 GiB
