proof/: fix ROLL, PICK, and pm_wf against real C ground truth, not just proof scripts

ROLL: forth_roll_def implemented a third, invented convention matching
neither the theory's own test lemma nor the real C stack_word_roll(). Traced
the actual C source (src/word_source/stack_words.c:287-320) and its passing
tests (stack_words_test.c roll_1/roll_2) to the real semantics -- ROLL is
1-indexed from the BOTTOM of the stack, not top-indexed as the old
definition assumed. Rewrote forth_roll_def to match, replaced the false
roll_one_nop/roll_two_is_rot with lemmas verified against the actual test
vectors.

PICK: forth_pick_def indexed into the pre-pop stack (still containing the
count n as its own head) instead of the post-pop stack, off by one position,
plus a bound check one too permissive. Fixed against src/word_source/
stack_words.c:265-282 and its pick_0/pick_1/pick_2 test vectors.

pm_wf: pm_record_hit_preserves_wf/pm_record_miss_preserves_wf were
oops-flagged as a genuine invariant gap. Fixed with the minimal added
hypothesis (pm_last_accuracy_den pm > 0), matching this session's established
discipline. Also documents a deeper finding: pm_last_accuracy_num/den don't
correspond to any field in the real PipelineGlobalMetrics C struct (which has
a single "double last_checked_accuracy", not a fraction) -- flagged for a
separate field-level audit, not attempted here.

All 23 theory files verify with zero errors.

attempts = 0, den is completely unconstrained (could be 0). Both attempts = 0, den is unconstrained (could be 0). Both pm_record_hit and

in a state where nothing in the precondition ever guaranteed it. Not a where the precondition never guaranteed it. Fixed with the minimal,
proof-script issue -- a genuine gap in what pm_wf requires versus what honest addition: assume "pm_last_accuracy_den pm > 0" directly, same
these two operations can establish. Left failing rather than silently discipline as every other missing-hypothesis fix this session (added,
strengthening pm_wf's own definition (a design decision, not a not silently invented into pm_wf's own definition, which is a design
mechanical fix) or weakening these lemmas' claim. *) decision for Captain Bob, not a mechanical fix).
(2) A deeper finding surfaced while chasing this: pm_last_accuracy_num
and pm_last_accuracy_den do not correspond to anything in the real C
struct. include/vm.h's PipelineGlobalMetrics has a single
"double last_checked_accuracy" field (confirmed via
src/vm_bootstrap.c:290-295 and src/vm_time.c:412-413,627-628) -- there
is no num/den fraction pair anywhere in the real struct. This theory's
pipeline_metrics_state record (StarForth_Base.thy) modeled accuracy as
a fraction that was never audited against the actual C fields it
claims to mirror. Not re-audited or corrected here -- a full field-level
pass over pipeline_metrics_state is its own separate task, flagged for
later, not attempted as a side effect of this fix. *)

n = 0: pop n, return (stack depth decreases by 1, TOS unchanged) the real C code nor its own test lemma (see git history for the

n \<ge> 2: save item at index (depth - n) from bottom (= dsp+1-n after pop), source and its passing tests:
shift items down to fill gap, place saved item on top.
Net effect on depth: decreases by 1 (n is consumed, one item moved). src/word_source/stack_words.c:291-320 (stack_word_roll): n is popped
FIRST. n=0 is a no-op. For n\<ge>1, the comment is explicit and the code
matches it exactly: "1-indexed from bottom: n=1 moves bottom item to
top" -- target = bottom + (n-1) (C array index, bottom=0); the item at
that index is removed, everything above it shifts down one slot, and
the removed item is placed on top. This is NOT the standard/gforth
"count from top" ROLL (which would make "2 ROLL" a ROT) -- it is a
different, deliberately bottom-indexed operation in this codebase.
Index convention after popping n (dsp' = dsp - 1): Verified against the real passing tests (stack_words_test.c):
value = data_stack[dsp'+1-n] = data_stack[dsp-n] "1 2 3 1 ROLL . . . CR" => prints "1 3 2"
Items at indices (dsp-n)..(dsp-1) shift down by 1. "1 2 3 2 ROLL . . . CR" => prints "2 3 1"

top" means: target index = length xs - n (n=1 -> last index = bottom,
n=length xs -> index 0 = TOS itself, a full-depth roll). Hand-checked
both test vectors against this formula -- both match exactly (worked
in the discovering session's transcript, not reproduced in-line here).
Bound: n=0 is a no-op (checked first, no shift). For n\<ge>1, valid range
is 1 \<le> n \<le> length xs (C: "n >= vm->dsp + 1" is the error condition,
vm->dsp+1 = length xs after the pop) -- n = length xs is a valid

remaining stack is rolled), not an error. *)
