fix(telemetry): a warning fired on an arm whose decline rate is arithmetic, not evidence (#4232)
Found by reading a live `retrieval_telemetry` readout after milestone 419
deployed, not by inspection. The readout said:

    cannot_decline / report_preference — "45 calls, 0 of them returned
    nothing. An arm that fires unasked has to be able to say nothing; this one
    never has. Check that it applies its floor at all."

And printed, beside it, that arm's band: p10 = p50 = p90 = min = max = 0.791.

FIVE IDENTICAL PERCENTILES IS THE TELL. That is not a ranking, it is one
record at one score on every call — because `report_preference` searches a
fixed string (`reply_preferences.COMPLETION_QUERY`, a module constant, and
deliberately so).

For a fixed query against a stable corpus the top score is a CONSTANT, so the
arm's decline rate is 0% or 100% and never in between; which of the two it is
depends only on where the bar sits relative to that one number. "Never
returned nothing" is therefore arithmetic, not evidence, and the warning's own
remedy — check whether it applies a floor — cannot be answered from it.

The arm already knew this about itself; the warning did not:

    "a fixed query makes this arm's score a constant and a floor a hair above
     it produces a dead arm no amount of traffic will ever reveal"
        — services/reply_preferences.py

THIS CLASS OF BUG ALREADY HAS A GUARD, which is the argument for the shape of
the fix. `Point.logs_unconditionally` exists because of #3497: both rule arms
once logged only their hits, so their zero count was structurally 0 and this
same warning would have fired on a LOGGING property while sending the reader
to move a threshold that was never involved. This is that one step over — a
QUERY-SHAPE property — and gets the same treatment: a declared field on
`Point`, and exclusion rather than trust.

AND THE WARNING THAT WOULD BE INFORMATIVE HERE DID NOT EXIST. For a fixed-query
arm the dangerous state is the mirror image: every call empty, meaning the bar
is above the constant and no further traffic will ever move it. The arm is off
rather than quiet, and nothing in the readout said so — `expects_traffic`
covers an arm with NO calls, not one with calls and a 100% decline rate. That
state is real and reached: `report_preference` once logged 69 consecutive
declines at 0.0006 under its bar.

So `fixed_query_never_clears` sends the reader to `near_miss_samples` and not
to the dial — because that incident is also the one where the statistic and
the correct action pointed opposite ways. Every percentile said lower the
floor; opening the refused record showed it was rule 77 arriving as a false
positive, and lowering it would have delivered that rule on every completion
report ever written.

Guards in tests/test_retrieval_warnings.py, including the falsifier that
matters most here: `cannot_decline` must still fire on an arm whose query
varies, or this change is a disabled check wearing a narrowed one's clothes.
Both boundaries tested from both sides, per that module's own standard.

The new code is documented in the `retrieval_telemetry` tool docstring beside
the others (rule 33) — an undocumented code in a readout is a reader meeting a
verdict with no way to disagree with it.

"""`retrieval_telemetry` says what is wrong, rather than implying it (#3431).
WHY THIS IS TESTED AS ARITHMETIC AND NOT THROUGH THE DATABASE. The warnings
are a pure function of the blocks the readout already built — that is the
design, so a verdict can never disagree with the numbers printed beside it —
and the risk in them is not whether rows load. It is whether a rule fires on
the wrong shape. Every case below is a shape that once produced, or would
produce, a wrong reading:
* an arm that never declines, which is either a missing floor or a missing
LOG (#3497 — the rule arms recorded only their hits, so their decline
count was structurally zero and the obvious warning would have sent a
reader to move a threshold that was never involved);
* a search that never declines, which is a search working correctly;
* a quiet window, where firing every check would describe an empty database
rather than a broken one (rule 115);
* a floor the band is sitting on, which is the case where tuning changes
volume while looking like it changes quality.
The ε and N boundaries are tested from BOTH sides. A threshold asserted only
where it fires is half-tested: the expensive failure here is a false positive,
because a readout that cries wolf is one nobody reads.
