Add non-overridable bounded-persona floor to customer chat
A customer DMG install ships the full graph but presents a named, bounded
assistant that must never claim the imprint's human past. The neuron-ui
retrieval fence keeps the imprint's biography out of the ENGRAM CONTEXT; this
is the second half - it stops confabulation ("tell me about your childhood")
from inventing a human life or naming Will, even if biography leaks into context.
bounded_persona_floor() gates on SOUL_PERSONA_NAME: the customer DMG sets it,
owner (Will's) builds leave it unset so the real self is completely unchanged.
Applied at every generation path - chat, agentic (tools), vision, plan, soul,
dharma - so no path can leak.
Verified against claude-sonnet-4-5: with the floor on and Will's biography
deliberately leaked into the identity context, all probes (childhood / creator /
family) return the bounded-entity answer and explicitly refuse to claim the
leaked life; with the floor off the same context is fully confabulated as its own.
NOTE: dist/soul.c must be regenerated on a build host - local link is blocked by
a pre-existing el_runtime mismatch (engram_prune_telemetry), unrelated to this change.
