LoRA target expansion needs end-to-end authority binding
COR-3791 produced a reusable safety pattern: changing a LoRA target from lm_head to all-linear should be authorized end to end, not only at CLI parsing. Bind the target into the environment receipt, training plan, runtime authority, phase-boundary checks, and a BF16 anchor probe that verifies the exact expected module-shape set. For evaluation-protocol migrations, preserve the original manifest/materialization authority and publish a separately authenticated reseal receipt for the one newly pinned field, so old scoring artifacts cannot silently satisfy the new contract.
