docs: pipeline prototype bit-exact, but dropped-in register won't cut depth -> go spec-level on_clock (Refs #1764)

[gHashTag]

Starts Variant 1 (pipeline the shared core) with an RTL prototype and reports what it revealed.

• Auto-retiming ruled out. synth_xilinx -retime moves only a few levels (ltp 57 → 51 on GftSadd with two output registers) — not enough to split the deep cloud.
• Two 2-stage GftSmul prototypes, both bit-exact. Cut after the product, and cut mid-RNE (after carry/q/r); each verified bit-exact to the combinational core over ~40 k random operands. But ltp rose 44 → 49 / 50: dropping a register into the generated combinational function defeats yosys's cross-function optimization of the inlined sadd/magmul/mul_noop, and the RNE-normalize/accumulator depth does not split at a hand-inserted register.
• Implication: the pipeline must be a spec-level on_clock where t27c co-optimizes the stages (and the multiply becomes a real pipelined primitive), not a register hand-dropped into codegen output. Added as ruled-out items [TASK-001]: Fix graph.tri — add missing spec declarations, fix typo #8 (auto-retime) and feat(ring-1): lex all 28 specs without errors [SEED-1] #9 (dropped-in register).
• Depth reduction is secondary anyway — the untested lever is mid-cloud resynchronization; since the microsequencer already waits settle ≫ 1 cycle, a latency-1 pipelined core needs no sequencer change, so the decisive next experiment is to build the trainer on pipelined cores and see if the glitch dies.

Prototypes in scratchpad/retime/. Board untouched (generated capstone, XOR 4/4). Docs-only. Refs #1764
