Add D11 — token alias-chain hygiene & API-surface freeze to checklist v3

[jackgranatowski]

Summary

Follow-up to the merged checklist v3 (#53). Adds a token API-freeze checkup based on a full var()-graph audit of all 562 token definitions.

• New decision D11 — Token alias-chain hygiene & API-surface freeze. Audit result: graph is healthy (153 pure single-hop aliases, 0 duplicate definitions, 0 dangling aliases, 0 cycles, max depth 3). Two freeze actions recorded:
  1. Collapse the redundant synonym hops (--sf-space-gap → --sf-gap, --sf-space-content → --sf-content-gap, --sf-section-pad → --sf-section-pad--m) so layout-gap chains drop from 3 hops to ≤2.
  2. Tag every token public/internal and add a CI guard (fail on >2 hops / new duplicate / dangling / cycle).
• Wired D11 into §C.15, the v0.2 / v0.3 roadmap, and the v1.0 release gate; fixed D1–D10 → D1–D11 references.

Docs-only change — no framework code touched.

Test plan

• audits/completion-checklist-v3.md renders correctly (tables, §A/D11, §C.15 row, §F entries, v1.0 gate)
• CI green (lint + build + regression tests) — change is markdown-only

Walkthrough

This PR updates the completion checklist to introduce decision D11, a new milestone establishing token alias-chain hygiene through public/internal labeling and CI-enforced hop-depth limits, integrating it into outstanding work items, roadmaps, and v1.0 release gates.

Changes

D11 Alias-Chain Hygiene Decision

Layer / File(s)	Summary
D11 decision specification audits/completion-checklist-v3.md	Adds D11 defining an alias-chain audit with health metrics, alias-hop collapse requirements (≤2 hops), token public/internal API labeling, and a CI guard that fails on excessive chain depth or integrity violations.
D11 integration in checklists and roadmaps audits/completion-checklist-v3.md	Updates outstanding work items, re-scored decision list, v0.2 foundation-polish roadmap, v0.3 CI-guard step, and v1.0 release gates to include D11's alias-chain constraints and labeling requirements; updates final closure note from D1–D10 to D1–D11.

--sf-section-pad--m to the action scope so both are explicitly frozen, and
