fix: address v0.7.0 review findings

- Auto-select: fast workflow now maps to pipeline strategy (was falling through to pdca)
- Evidence validation: check for missing evidence markers, not just banned phrases
- Remove sed-based artifact mutation (avoids table row corruption), track downgrades in events only
- Pipeline verify: explicit merge guard prevents merging before tests/re-review pass
