Documenter 286aa12bb0 site: cut the template's own labels out of the pages
Point 7 of the page-wording review. The pages no longer show their data
structure as headings, and they no longer explain their own conventions.

- Level 1 is one screen: claim, status badge, three figures, the technology
  row, and one sentence carrying one link. Measured in headless Chrome at
  1440x900: 1404-1845 px tall before, exactly 900 px (no scroll) after, on
  all six area pages.
- DocPage: no kicker line, no visible level label, no "Evidence for this
  page" heading or instruction note, no "Drill-downs" list, no
  "Status <word> - sentence" footer. The artefact table starts at level 2,
  under the heading "Artefacts"; the history timeline is level 2 only.
- Landing page: "Start here" link text gone, "How to read this site" panel
  gone, the footer's status-label explainer gone.
- Content, presentation only, no claim softened: the leading H1 that
  duplicated the page title removed from all 41 documents; level 1 bodies
  reduced to the constraint as ordinary prose plus the way in;
  "**Status: ...**" prefixes removed from the artefact stubs; "## Drill-downs"
  and "## Period and confidence" removed from the level 2 pages, with the
  cross-area links moved into the prose.
- The six level 1 claims are now sentences with a subject, and use commas
  instead of middots. Same facts, no new ones.

Not in this commit: the 35 level 2 and 3 claims still use the compact CV
style. That is a voice decision for Sam, not a wording tidy-up.

make validate: 41 documents, 0 violations. go test ./...: pass.

A redacted excerpt of the configuration tree lands in Phase 7. No hostnames, addresses or keys are published.
## What the artefact is
The shape of the configuration: one shared base, per-host modules, and the parts that make the desktop and the terminal identical everywhere — window manager, editor, shell and the plugins that carry the work. Proxmox hosts the virtualised side, including the file server and the home automation appliance.
## What it proves
That a machine can be rebuilt from a description, and that the same environment follows the person between machines instead of being re-created by memory.
## Limits stated on the page
The terminal-first setup is deliberate: a heavier desktop was downgraded to the terminal on one machine for memory headroom. A phone-as-server experiment is on hold, not shipped, and is described as on hold.
## When it is delivered
Phase 7. Source facts: evidence notes section 3.
