feat(replay): R0 snapshot recorder — archive per-cycle decisions into signals

The signals and markets tables existed since Phase 2/5 but never had a
writer; the replay engine (phase plan line 2.1) needs a per-(market, cycle)
archive of what the strategy saw and decided. This wires them up:

- signals: one row per evaluated market per cycle, now carrying INPUTS
  (news_sentiment, feat_*_lo, volume_24h, days_to_resolution) plus the
  existing outputs (probs, edges, gates, skip_reason). skip_reason is
  granular: unsupported/no_signals/prior_extreme/family/edge_net/
  confidence/reentry_guard. news_budget_skipped distinguishes "GNews not
  asked" (5-query budget) from "no news".
- ext_snapshots: one row per cycle with the ExternalSignals snapshot;
  signals rows join on cycle_ts.
- markets: metadata upserted each cycle (replay rebuilds Market from it).
- Retention: prune > SIGNALS_RETENTION_DAYS (default 90) once a day.
- SIGNAL_RECORDER_ENABLED (default true) gates all DB writes; every write
  is try/except — the recorder can never break trading.

Strategy changes are purely additive (record accumulation at each exit
path of evaluate()); no weights, thresholds, gates or sizing touched,
per the freeze in the current phase plan.

Tests: 10 new deterministic tests (85 total passing). Schema migration
dry-run validated against prod postgres inside a rolled-back transaction.

+"""
+Tests for the GNews guardrail (catastrophic fuse).
+
+Post-mortem NVIDIA 631181: one uncorroborated signal at high weight flipped a
+0.845 market to 0.431.  With Manifold observational-only and macro signals
+gated behind is_non_price, GNews is the only live signal able to move politics
+markets 20-30 pp against the order-book consensus.  The fuse clamps the
+posterior to prior ± MAX_NEWS_ONLY_PROB_SHIFT when GNews is the ONLY material
+signal (|log-odds| >= NEWS_MATERIAL_LOGODDS_THRESHOLD); any other material
+signal counts as corroboration and disables the clamp.
+
+Politics markets have no macro adjustments, so full-path tests exercise the
+"GNews only" branch naturally; the corroboration branch is tested through the
+pure helper apply_news_guardrail().
+
+evaluate() emits a NEWS_MATERIAL log line for every market whose news
+contribution is material (trade or skip); tests parse it via caplog.
