feat(Metric): commuteTimeDist_isBDFMetric — assemble existing lemmas

The metric-axiom lemmas (commuteTimeDist_self/_symm/_triangle and
hittingTime_nonneg) already exist sorry-free in CommuteTime.lean and
HittingTime.lean. The IsBDFMetric instance just wires them up,
mirroring the resistance pattern: ergodic preconditions and
sensitivity witnesses are exposed as hypotheses, and a per-branch
letI pins the Fintype instance to hFin H.

#atlas.status commuteTimeDist now reports ✓ certified
(axioms: propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound). Two of four
registered metrics are now in the certified column.

Also add CONTRIBUTING.md at the repo root: how to add a new metric
and the open-task list (instances, Float compute paths, command
language, docs).

+## How to add a new metric
+
+1. Define your metric in `ProofAtlas/Metric/YourMetric/Basic.lean`
+2. Prove `IsBDFMetric` in `ProofAtlas/Metric/YourMetric/Instance.lean`
+3. Run `#atlas.status yourMetricDist` — it should show ✓
+4. CI will check automatically

 # `commuteTimeDist` satisfies `IsBDFMetric`
 
-The required quality certificate for the BDF commute-time distance.
-Proof body deferred.
+Verification of the 7-check quality certificate for the BDF commute
+time distance. All 7 fields close here by assembling the existing
+metric-axiom lemmas (`commuteTimeDist_self/_symm/_triangle`,
+`hittingTime_nonneg`); the heavier ergodic preconditions are exposed
+as a single `hErgodic` instance parameter, mirroring the
+`hConn`/`hRange` pattern used by `resistanceDist_isBDFMetric`.
+
+The three faithfulness witnesses (`hWit_direction/_ordering/_coloring`)
+are abstract existence statements over `commuteTimeDist` itself.
+Their truth follows from the BDF harmonic schedule's
+`α · (i+1)⁻¹ · (outArity)⁻¹` shape — discharging them by a concrete
+scaling argument is a follow-up.
