v2.2.0 - EventChain (tamper-evident HMAC event log)
EventChain - a tamper-evident, HMAC-SHA-256-chained event log. The integrity-bearing sibling of EventLog: every appended record is signed and folds in the previous record signature, so the whole log is a hash chain. Catches field tampering, record deletion, reordering, and (with seal) tail truncation. Ported from the server-authoritative event tape running in the LoomMaster backend.
