Golden runs, benchmarks and documentation captures each called
assertFreshDemoBundle; the smoke launcher never did, so all ~128 smokes could
silently test a stale demo/srv/assets bundle. On #234 that cost a round of
analysis: three assertions went red and a fourth went green, because the old
code was wrong in two places that agreed with each other, and a mixed result
reads as a logic defect rather than a stale artefact.
launch() now runs the check once for every smoke, against the repository root
rather than the serving root — demo/srv has no src/** to fingerprint.
HP_ALLOW_STALE_BUNDLE=1 skips it for debugging and warns out loud, because a
guard that says nothing when it steps aside is the silent success this project
keeps removing. A mutation entry proves the call cannot quietly disappear.
