James Dansereau 1c60da6f46 docs: clarify rule #2's diagnostic scope + define rule-2 sign-off process
Widens the written scope of AGENTS.md non-negotiable #2's ABI exception to
match established practice (runtime struct/union misreads, not just
ROM-serialized structs — the D209/D210/D255 pattern), states explicitly
that diagnosis into src/game is never restricted (only the fix is), and
defines a real three-bucket taxonomy + sign-off procedure (dev-process.md
§7) for the rare genuine-behavior-difference case, replacing the
undefined ad hoc "ask the user" gesture that's been referenced without
being defined across ~10 places in the docs.

Mirrors the same framing into CONTRIBUTING.md and the PR template for
external contributors. Extends porting-notes.md §A1 with D255 as a third
worked example and a tell-tale-signs checklist, explicitly distinguishing
it from D284 (same epistemic shape, different mechanism, no rule-2
question at all). Appends a ready-to-dispatch pass-10 brief to the D236
entry applying the new taxonomy to its actual next step.

Docs-only; no code/build changes. Per docs/dev/notes/RULE-2-CLARIFICATION-PLAN.md.
