Add generated persistence log event catalog with freshness + completeness gates

docs/persistence-catalog/log-events.md enumerates every SessionEventMap
member — the owning dsh-session vocabulary plus the dsh-compact and
dsh-hook-protocol declaration merges — with payload, surface/log-only badge,
JSDoc prose, and declaration site. scripts/gen-persistence-catalog.ts is a
pure AST pass in the gen-cordis-catalog mold: verify-persistence-catalog
(--check) joins doc-sync, so a stale committed catalog fails pre-push and CI.

The walk enforces JSDoc completeness (every member needs description prose;
@mode is rejected as a category error — log events do not dispatch on the
cordis bus), derives the surface badge from the SurfaceEventType union with a
stale-member cross-check, and hard-errors on duplicate declarations. Payloads
render through the TypeScript printer so newline-separated multi-line type
literals still emit valid one-line fragments.

Documented the five previously JSDoc-less core events (turn/step boundaries,
tool/call), removed the two stray @mode tags on the hook/* merges, and
replaced the hand-restated event enumerations (session.md hook/* table,
compact README table, hook-protocol README bullets, session README name-list
— whose merge note had already drifted) with links to the catalog. RFC:
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-04-persistence-log-catalog.md.

# RFC: Generated persistence log event catalog
Status: implemented (accepted 2026-07-04)
## Context
The session event log is the harness's on-disk contract: every `SessionEventMap` member is a record a persistence backend writes verbatim and a replay reconstructs from, and adding one that breaks the durability rules is a breaking change to the on-disk format. Yet the vocabulary had no single reference. The declarations are split across three files — the owning interface in `@deepseek-ai/dsh-session` plus declaration merges in `@deepseek-ai/dsh-compact` and `@deepseek-ai/dsh-hook-protocol` — and the doc surfaces covered it with hand-copies: a `hook/*` payload table in [session.md](../../../core-data-structures/session.md), a `compact/*` payload table in the compact README, payload bullets in the hook-protocol README, and a name-list in the session README. The name-list's merge note had already drifted (it named the compaction merge and omitted the hook merge entirely), and nothing could catch the next merge going undocumented: a hand-copy only checks the names someone already wrote down. This is the same gap the [cordis catalog](2026-06-20-generated-cordis-catalog.md) closed for bus events and the [tool catalog](2026-07-02-tool-schema-catalog.md) closed for model-facing tools — and log events are covered by neither: a `SessionEventMap` member is not a cordis `Events` declaration (it reaches listeners via the single `session/event` emit), so it has no cordis-catalog row by design.
## Decision
Generate `docs/persistence-catalog/log-events.md` from source, with a freshness gate, as the fourth reference surface: the *records* a persisted session log can contain, complementing the cordis catalog (wiring), core-data-structures (vocabulary), and the tool catalog (tools).
`scripts/gen-persistence-catalog.ts` is a pure TypeScript-AST pass, like `gen-cordis-catalog.ts` and unlike the boot-based tool catalog — the right technique because log events ARE statically knowable: every member is a string-literal-named property with a static type annotation, so the AST is the whole truth. The walk collects every `interface SessionEventMap` declaration under `packages/*/*/src` — the owning top-level interface and every `declare module '@deepseek-ai/dsh-session'` merge — so a brand-new event, core or merged, appears in the next regenerate and an un-regenerated file fails `--check` (`verify-persistence-catalog`, a `doc-sync` member, so pre-push and CI both run it). Each entry renders the member's JSDoc prose, its payload (printed through the TypeScript printer, so a newline-separated multi-line type literal still yields a valid one-line fragment), a surface badge, cross-links into core-data-structures, and the declaration's source pointer, grouped by scope.
Specific choices:
- **JSDoc completeness, enforced.** Every member must carry description prose — the JSDoc becomes the catalog entry, the same forcing function the cordis catalog applies to bus events. An `@mode` tag on a member is a hard error: dispatch modes belong to cordis bus events, and a log event has none — the tag would misread as "this fires on the bus with mode X". Violations aggregate into one error listing every offender.
- **The surface badge is derived, not hand-listed.** `SurfaceEventType` — the subset that produces LLM messages and may carry `surfaceOp` — is parsed from its union declaration in the owning package; a union member naming no declared event is a hard error (a stale union member would otherwise silently badge nothing). Everything else renders **log-only**.
- **A dedicated fence.** Payload blocks use a ` ```ts persistence-catalog ` info string that `doc-typecheck` recognizes and skips, excluded from the opt-out ratio — the same treatment as `ts cordis-catalog` (a bare payload fragment is not standalone-compilable).
- **Repo scope.** The catalog enumerates the packages in this repo, matching the siblings' packages-only scope; a downstream plugin can merge further event types, which are outside the catalog by construction. Nothing else in the repo may name an interface `SessionEventMap` — the walk treats every such declaration as the merged vocabulary, and a duplicate member across declarations is a hard error.
This supersedes the hand-copies: the session.md `hook/*` table, the compact README's event table, the hook-protocol README's payload bullets, and the session README's name-list now link the catalog instead of restating payloads (the surrounding semantics prose stays where it was). The two stray `@mode emit` tags on the hook-protocol merge members are removed — the new gate rejects them as the category error they were.
## Consequences
- The catalog cannot drift: a vocabulary change the committed file doesn't reflect fails `verify-persistence-catalog` in the pre-push hook and CI, and a new merged event with no JSDoc fails the generator outright — a plugin can no longer add an undocumented on-disk record type.
- Event prose has a single home, the JSDoc at the declaration; thin JSDoc yields a thin catalog entry, pressuring authors to document at the source.
- The `SurfaceEventType` union is now structurally load-bearing for docs: renaming an event without updating the union (or vice versa) fails the generator, not just the compiler.
- The badge derivation assumes the union stays a closed set of string literals with exactly one owner; a refactor away from that shape must update the generator in the same change.
