v4.0.16 — Enterprise demo: AuthGuardian gate + violation deduplication

## What's in this release

### v4.0.16 — Enterprise demo improvements

The control-plane demo (`examples/08-control-plane-stress-demo.ts`) is now video-ready and covers every major guardrail in a single no-API-key run.

**Changes:**
- **AuthGuardian permission gate added as Phase 2** — agent attempts `PAYMENTS` access with a weak justification → `BLOCKED`; retries with a specific task-scoped justification → `GRANTED` with a token + `["audit_required"]` restriction — the most enterprise-relevant moment in the whole stack, now visible in the demo
- **Violation deduplication** — `ComplianceMonitor` previously printed the same `RESPONSE_TIMEOUT` / `JOURNEY_TIMEOUT` line 8–12 times during the sleep window; now prints the first occurrence of each `type+agentId` pair and shows a suppressed-count summary line at the end
- Phases renumbered 1→4: Priority Preemption, Permission Gate, FSM + Compliance, Summary

**Run it (no API key required):**
```bash
npx ts-node examples/08-control-plane-stress-demo.ts

v4.0.15 — Enterprise trust artifacts

Three new files designed to let an engineer evaluate Network-AI without a meeting:

• ENTERPRISE.md — evaluation checklist (offline/air-gapped, data ownership, audit trail, adapter compatibility, security supply chain, cost), architecture summary, versioning + support policy, stability signals, integration entry points
• AUDIT_LOG_SCHEMA.md — complete audit log field reference: all 9 event types (permission_request, permission_granted, permission_denied, permission_revoked, ttl_cleanup, budget_initialized, handoff_allowed, handoff_blocked, safety_shutdown), per-event details schemas with typed field tables, weighted scoring formula, retention and privacy notes
• ADOPTERS.md — adopters registry; open a PR to add your organization or project
