docs(rfc): define and enforce a uniform RFC format; adopt it across the corpus

Define the in-file RFC contract in docs/rfc/README.md § The file format:
the header block (`# RFC: <title>` plus a dateless Status enum
cross-checked against the lifecycle folder), the per-lifecycle body
skeleton (a Problem opener everywhere; Proposal/Alternatives considered/
Acceptance criteria/Risks in proposed/; present-tense Decision/
Consequences with proposal-era headings banned in implemented/; the
frozen proposal shape in rejected/), and a mandatory Alternatives
considered section with a date-fenced grandfather comment for pre-format
RFCs whose alternatives are not reconstructible from the record.

Enforce it with a new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-rfc-format.ts, and
normalize all 112 RFCs to it: ~15 Status-line spellings collapse to the
enum, 29 Context openers become Problem, the 39 legacy-format XXX debt
markers are resolved and banned from reappearing, proposal-era sections
in implemented RFCs are rewritten to shipped reality (including the
web/fs/subagent seam RFCs' migration plans and test checklists, closing
the doc-tiers deferred-work item on the web seam), every RFC gains an
Alternatives considered section or the grandfather comment, and the
bilingual pair is re-mirrored and re-recorded.

Move the generated index tables out of README.md into a fully generated
docs/rfc/INDEX.md — gen-rfc-index now writes the whole file, and
verify-rfc-classification checks its freshness and rejects index-shaped
rows in the curated README — which makes room for the format contract to
live in the README front door instead of a separate FORMAT.md.

The decision record, and the first RFC written in the new format, is
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-05-uniform-rfc-format.md.

This was not just cosmetic. Because every top-level package looked like part of the same public surface, future removal was harder, and publish/lint/doc scripts had to encode intent through comments or hand-maintained static lists rather than reading it off the layout.
## What landed
## Decision
Packages are grouped by modular role at a uniform `packages/<group>/<pkg>/` depth. Group directories are pure containers (no `package.json`); every package keeps its `@deepseek-ai/dsh-<pkg>` name — this is repo structure and maintenance policy, not package renaming.

- `scripts/verify-package-paths.ts` flags a `packages/<path>` reference (in Markdown or a `.ts` comment/string) that does not resolve **and** names a real package in a segment — i.e. a stale path to a moved package. A path naming a package that exists nowhere (a forward-looking proposal) is left alone, so the gate applies uniformly across proposed/implemented/rejected.
- `scripts/check-workspace-constraints.ts` asserts the `packages/<group>/<pkg>` shape: group dirs carry no `package.json`, and no package sits flat at the root or nests deeper. Group names stay open — a new group may be added without editing the gate; only the depth-2 shape is fixed.
## What we gave up
## Alternatives considered
- **A third tier (`adapters/` / `impls/` under each family)** — rejected: uniform depth 2 keeps the workspace glob a clean `packages/*/*` and lets one `@deepseek-ai/dsh-*` tsconfig wildcard resolve every package.
- **Nesting persistence under `core/session/`** — rejected: the storage backends form a parallel capability family mirroring `llm/` and `bash/`, while the session log itself stays core product API.
- **`ui-stdio` under `ui/`** — rejected: it is example-coupled dev support, not a product surface; `acp` is the only `ui/` member because an editor actually drives it.
## Consequences
The restructure churned imports, workspace globs, doc links, build references, and package paths in one coordinated move. That churn is acceptable pre-release (per the AGENTS.md foundation-over-blast-radius stance) because it stops the flat layout from fossilizing support packages as product contracts, and it is a one-time cost: the wildcard `paths`, the glob-derived publint list, and the shape gate mean a new package needs no further structural edits.
