docs(6209): seventeen more test files — lesson shape and round trip, rule scope/moments/kind/surfacing, drift, deadlock race, backup, inception, backfill, claims, supersession, ledgers, family shapes
Docstrings and comments state the property and its reason in the present
tense. The session-context ledger test no longer describes the decision it
"used to pin"; the supersession tests state demote-not-filter without the
quote; one-row measurements become the general shape with their figures.

"""The supersession claim — who may make it, and what it refuses.
Ranking behaviour is in test_supersession_ranking.py; this covers only
recording and reading the relation.
The cycle tests are the ones worth reading. Under FLAT demotion a ring of
records that supersede each other claims every member is obsolete, so all of
them get demoted equally and the whole set drops out of ranked retrieval
together — with nothing in the data saying why.
