Bundle I (Coverage Audit Closure): QA-doc drift cleanup — H-007 + H-008 closed

Applies Patches 1-7 from coverage-audit-2026-04-27/tables/qa-doc-patches.md

(Patch 5 re-anchored against actual HEAD seed counts after Phase 0 recon

discovered the original patch's anticipated counts were themselves drifted).

docs/qa-test-guide.md:

  - Patch 1: 'all 54 Parts' -> '49 of 56 Parts' + not-yet-automated callout

  - Patch 2: Totals line replaced with verified-2026-04-27 breakdown + recompute commands

  - Patch 3: Coverage Map gains Parts 23, 24, 55, 56 (each '0 (NOT AUTOMATED)')

  - Patch 4: 'Not Yet Automated' subsection added under 'What This Test Does NOT Cover'

  - Patch 5: Seed Data Reference re-anchored to authoritative HEAD counts:

      32 certs (already correct), 12 agents (was 9), 13 issuers (was 9),

      8 targets (already correct), 4 nst (already correct).

      Replaced narrow ID enumerations with sed | grep recompute commands.

      Added maintenance-note pointer to Strengthening #6 (CI guard).

  - Patch 6: Version History entry v1.2 added

  - Bonus: integration_test comparison row updated (12 agents + 13 issuers)

deploy/test/qa_test.go (Patch 7):

  4 new t.Run('PartN_*', ...) blocks for Parts 23, 24, 55, 56 — each calls

  t.Skip with a docs/testing-guide.md::Part N pointer + automation candidates.

  Skip-with-rationale form keeps Part numbering consistent + makes the

  manual-test pointer machine-readable. Replacing each Skip with a real

  test body is gap-backlog work.

Verification:

  grep -cE '^## Part [0-9]+:' docs/testing-guide.md          == 56  PASS

  grep -cE 't\.Run("Part[0-9]+_' deploy/test/qa_test.go    == 53  PASS

  go vet -tags qa ./deploy/test/...                          PASS

  go test -tags qa -run='__nope__' ./deploy/test/...         PASS (compile)

(Full SKIP-grep gate requires the live demo stack; t.Skip bodies trivial.)

Audit deliverables:

  findings.yaml: H-007 (-0014), H-008 (-0015) status open -> closed

  gap-backlog.md: strikethrough both rows + Bundle I closure-log entry

  tables/qa-doc-drift.md: 'PATCHES APPLIED' header marker (not retro-edited)

  acquisition-readiness.md: QA-doc rigor 2.5 -> 4.0

  closure-plan.md: Bundle I checklist box ticked

  CHANGELOG.md: [unreleased] Bundle I entry
