Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 5784d8a1a8 riscv64: finish SBI timer verification and clean up stale timer docs

Punch list §25 item 0.3 complete.

The functional work (FDT reader, `time` CSR switch, SBI TIME extension
arm/re-arm, sie.STIE) was committed separately by Captain Bob as accd79f,
honestly labeled "NOT complete." This finishes it: stale documentation
cleanup, then rigorous verification against the item's literal acceptance
text, which the prior commit had not yet done.

Doc cleanup: every remaining reference to `rdcycle` / "assumed 1 GHz" in
riscv64/timer.c and riscv64/apic.c rewritten to describe the actual `time`
CSR / SBI-armed behavior. Caught and corrected my own arithmetic error in
the process: a draft claimed the ns-overflow bound improved to "~58 years"
under the new counter; direct computation shows the bound is actually
~3.26 days (2^48 ns) and is *frequency-independent* -- s_ns_per_tick and
tick rate scale inversely and cancel. Verified with a script before
writing the final comment, not asserted.

Verification, since "boots to prompt" was not sufficient for this item's
acceptance ("heartbeat_ticks() advances ... within measurement noise"):

- No FORTH word exposes heartbeat_ticks() to the REPL, and adding one would
  be a new primitive outside this item's scope. GDB-over-QEMU-stub reads of
  the static counter failed ("Cannot access memory"), likely a virtual-vs-
  runtime address mismatch; abandoned rather than debugged further, since a
  better instrument was available.
- QEMU's own `-d int` trap tracing (independent of all guest code) shows
  2,797 `cause:5 desc=s_timer` interrupts delivered by the time boot reaches
  the prompt, and the interleaved `desc=supervisor_ecall` entries are exactly
  the SBI set_timer calls from riscv64_timer_rearm(), confirming the full
  interrupt -> handler -> re-arm -> SBI loop.
- Measured rate over a real 10.127 s window: 1,013 further interrupts,
  100.028 Hz observed against 100 Hz configured -- 0.03% deviation. The
  sustained, non-decaying rate is itself proof the one-shot re-arm succeeds
  on every cycle, not just the first.
- Confirmed regression-free on amd64 and aarch64 too: uefi_loader.c, uefi.h,
  boot_info_offsets.h and the new fdt.c/fdt.h are shared across all three
  builds (amd64 also consumes the offset constants via kernel_entry.S), so
  all three were rebuilt and booted. Identical dict_hash
  0x3d4e1daf289da94f on all three, matching the item 0.1/0.2 baseline.

Reported, not fixed, per rule 3:
- DOE_INJECT=1's EXEC-DOE now fails as "UNKNOWN WORD" against the pruned
  Hera-alone capsule -- doe.4th was never loaded by init.4th even before
  item 0.1's prune, so this is a pre-existing gap the prune surfaced, not a
  new defect. Discovered while chasing why a 200-rep injected DoE run
  produced no new CSV rows after 25 minutes; it had failed in the first
  millisecond, not run the whole time.
- repl.c's own comment claims a "Heartbeat: N ticks" diagnostic prints to
  the serial log; no such print exists anywhere in the tree.
- riscv64/arch.c's arch_read_timestamp() still uses rdcycle with a stale
  1 GHz comment, but it has zero callers on this architecture -- dead code,
  left alone.
