Subject: [PATCH] test: pin the fr entry to the fr dictionary via a live-bundle
 mutant (#371)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The entry-removed variant died at build time (tree-shaking drops the fr
chunk and the manifest emit guard refuses the bundle) — an infrastructure
failure, not a red guard. The mutant now swaps the fr entry to the German
loader instead: everything builds, parity units stay green, and only the
French smoke catches the wrong dictionary.

Issue: #371
