docs: disclose single-engine-host node distribution + add study site & story slides

Paper (stage-07 lead): add an Apparatus disclosure (§4.3) and a Node-distribution
limitation (§7) stating that all relay hops ran as isolated Docker containers on a
single engine host and the two phones were consenting endpoints, not forwarders.
Containment (engine != local) holds; cross-machine timing is out of scope / future work.

Add the self-contained study site (docs/paper-site/: build_site.py, index.html) built
straight from the sealed paper markdown, plus a generator + six 1080x1920 Instagram-story
teaser slides (make_story_slides.py, story/) using only sealed, audited numbers. Defensive
measurement framing throughout; the pre-registered nulls are reported, not spun.

"""Generate Instagram-Story (1080x1920) teaser slides for the sor-consent study.
Each slide is a self-contained HTML file with inline SVG, purpose-built for a
9:16 portrait viewport. Numbers are transcribed from the SEALED confirmatory
artifacts (audited 2026-07-22):

- RQ2-P1 dH = -0.9587 bits [-1.0559, -0.8641] (shrink) SURVIVES
- RQ2-P3' rho = +0.624 [0.594, 0.655] (mix; mechanism-corrected) SURVIVES
- RQ1-P2 dAUC= +0.0113 [-0.0025, +0.0234] (padding-ineffective) non-survivor
