Claude a8321e32cc process: mutants run only in the nightly full registry; speed rules for ship/show (#709) ...

Owner's decision 2026-09-29: mutants check the tests, not the product.
During development they are not run at all — not locally, not in CI,
not by the reviewer. The whole registry is the nightly run
(mutation-gate.yml, #513); a survivor files an issue (#472). The #693
post-mortem: 36 of 57 minutes of a one-line fix went to optional work.

- process-track.mjs: `mutants` is always false (no track, no label).
- classify-changes.mjs: Validate requests no diff mutants on any event;
  the `mutants` input stays so old `-f mutants=…` calls do not fail.
- _process.yml: the default for the gate and the merge is false.
- pre-push-gate.mjs: the manual run no longer runs mutants.
- Canon: PROCESS §2.7 (a mutant is written, not run; `--check` keeps the
  anchors), §5.1 (`ci:mutants` retired), §8 (ship/show: nothing beyond
  gate:small and the spec — one proof per item, no `--smokes` on ship,
  a stray flake is an issue, not an investigation), §10.4; AUTHOR,
  REVIEWER, AGENTS, TESTING.
- Registry: four mutants of the old request rules replaced by
  dev-mutants-requested-again and track-pays-for-mutants-again.
