feat: Phase 2 cross-module discoveries — 6 new experiments, all validated

Discovery 5: Time-dependent disambiguation (decay + interference)
  Faster-decohering meaning loses embedding structure over time,
  shifting which meaning wins. "Financial" starts dominant but
  "river" takes over as financial embedding decoheres faster.

Discovery 6: QEC on swarm reasoning chains (reasoning_qec + swarm)
  Syndrome bits map to agent boundaries. Fired syndromes indicate
  where adjacent agents disagree, enabling targeted identification
  of incoherent reasoning steps.

Discovery 7: Counterfactual search explanation (collapse + reversible)
  Removing each gate and measuring divergence reveals which operation
  was most responsible for a search result. Ry gate (divergence=0.45)
  vs identity-like gate (divergence=0.0).

Discovery 8: Syndrome-diagnosed swarm health (diagnosis + swarm)
  Syndrome extraction localizes faults to the disruptor's neighborhood.
  Low-health agent creates structural vulnerability that propagates
  through connected components.

Discovery 9: Decoherence as differential privacy (decay + collapse)
  Light noise (0.01): preserves top results, divergence=0.12, entropy=1.44
  Heavy noise (1.0): randomizes results, divergence=0.61, entropy=2.07
  Calibrated decoherence provides tunable privacy for embedding search.

Discovery 10: Full 4-module pipeline (decay→interfere→collapse→QEC)
  Fresh knowledge (fidelity=0.99): correct results, 0 QEC syndromes
  Stale knowledge (fidelity=0.28): corrupted results, QEC detects degradation
  Pipeline degrades gracefully with automatic reliability signaling.

105 total tests: 57 lib + 42 Phase 1 integration + 6 Phase 2 discoveries

// DISCOVERY 7: Counterfactual Search Explanation
// (quantum_collapse + reversible_memory)
//
// Can we EXPLAIN why a quantum collapse search picked a particular result
// by using counterfactual reasoning on the state preparation?
//
// Approach:
// 1. Build a reversible memory with a sequence of gates that bias the
// probability distribution toward certain basis states.
// 2. Extract the probability distribution and use it as the set of
// "candidate embeddings" for collapse search.
// 3. Run the search to find the top result.
// 4. For each gate in the preparation sequence, run counterfactual
// analysis (remove that gate) and see how the probability
// distribution --- and therefore the search result --- would change.
//
// HYPOTHESIS: The gate that created the most bias in the probability
// space will have the highest counterfactual divergence, and removing
// it will change the search result most dramatically.
