docs: dankserver board swap clears the PCIe-atomics wall

Reanalysis after the 2026-09-20 swap to an ASUS ProArt B850-Creator WiFi
NEO: both R9700s now sit on CPU GPP root ports (x8/x8 Gen5 bifurcation),
every bridge reads AtomicOpsCap Routing+, and both endpoints read
AtomicOpsCtl ReqEn+ (CAP_EXP+28.w = 0x1440) — the exact precondition
Dual-R9700-Cooperation's test plan named. TP=2 is therefore unblocked,
not proven: no collective has been dispatched since the swap,
GGML_HIP_RCCL is still OFF, and the 272 t/s "tensor" number on record
measured a butterfly fallback.

- Dual-R9700-Cooperation: short answer rewritten, re-measured 2026-09-20
  topology table, rebuild-hypothesis door marked moot, probe plan is now
  standing work.
- Dankserver System Specs: Motherboard section; GPU BDFs 0b:00.0 ->
  07:00.0, iGPU 10:00.0 -> 11:00.0, kernel 7.0.0-31, SMT on, and the new
  eno2 (192.168.0.247) second 5GbE port holding the low-metric default
  route while eno1 keeps the fleet's static .235.
- frank-medium-llamacpp-dflash2: rationale and hardware row split past
  from present; dated work-log sections stay as history.
- AGENTS.md + both indexes: no longer assert a wall that no longer exists.

Docs only; frank-medium stayed active and healthy throughout (verified
/health). ./tests/run.sh 331/331.
