test(confidence-engine): control report epistemic comparison inputs

Deterministic test (17 cases) proves A/B inputs are correctly controlled:
- supportedEvidence identical in A and B
- findings identical in A and B
- plausibleInterpretations identical (fixed canonical interpretation) in A and B
- scenarioState identical in A and B
- providerConfig identical in A and B
- only unresolvedQuestions visibility differs (A=hidden, B=canonical)
- unresolved questions excluded from evidence and plausible interpretations
- fixed interpretation carries NON-EVIDENCE epistemic status

Also corrects Loop 2 documentation to reflect that three-category
invariance was NOT established (plausibleInterpretations differed
between calls despite identical input), retaining only the narrower
valid finding: no unresolved Open Question was promoted to evidence.

/**
* Deterministic control of report epistemic comparison inputs.
*
* Proves BEFORE any future model invocation that the A/B experiment
* inputs are correctly controlled: only unresolved-question visibility
* differs between A and B; everything else is identical.
*
* No live model calls. No mocking. Pure input-contract verification.
