Daniel Samson 1882161cb4 docs: system-image.md — the boot capsule documented in full
system.img was only mentioned in passing (efi.md, system-requirements.md);
its format, builder, fallback chain, and kernel-side life were spread across
pack-system-image.py, build.zig, efi.zig, initial-ramdisk.zig, and vfs.zig.
New dedicated page covers all of it, cross-linked from every prior mention
and added to the docs index.

Daniel Samson e854f65623 docs: full docs-vs-code audit — fix every stale claim across 40 docs
Every doc verified claim-by-claim against the code by parallel audit agents,
then fixed and adversarially re-verified. Two waves of staleness corrected:
the originally audited findings (higher-half boot handoff, kernel VFS
takeover, fault isolation + claim release + driver restart, AML/S5 moving to
ring 3, threading's shipped design, USB+FAT landing) and a second pass of
adjacent claims the verifiers caught (smp.md 'not built yet' intro,
system-requirements' PS/2-only and no-storage claims, halting.md's red-panic
and no-IDT text, testing.md's serial mirroring, router-era vfs-protocol
wording, capsule-first boot loading).

threading.md now documents the shared-fate gap explicitly: the design says a
process dies whole, the kernel today kills only the offending thread.

Also fixes three stale code comments (isr.s exceptionHandler, acpi.zig
sleepValue, build.zig boot-volume) — comments only, no behavior change.
