Review round 2 on PR #195: the marker writes had no test, so reverting
them to by-path writes, or the refusal to log-only, stayed green. The
link is planted from inside the fake model call, between the walk's
Lstat and the marker write, for both markers and both an outside and
an in-brain relative target; red on all four flips. The marker-entry
skip is now checked for .failed too.

Also pins cleanRel's acceptance of a backslash as a filename byte in
brainfs itself, and stops the buildAndWrite control claiming writes it
does not count.

mathiasandClaude Opus 5.5 1a2a93d2f4 fix(watcher): refusals end in a terminal state; pin every converted writer (#158)

Review round 1 on PR #195:
- A refused marker or archive write left no marker, so the note was
  reprocessed every interval (archive copies piling up; an LLM call per
  round on the failure path). The marker check now uses Lstat (any entry
  at the marker path counts, so a dangling marker link skips the note
  instead of looping), and a note whose archive copy or marker write is
  refused is remembered (path, size, mtime) and not retried until it
  changes.
- cleanRel no longer refuses a backslash: it is a legal filename byte on
  Linux, not a traversal, and a raw note named with one was never
  archived or marked.
- Tests now reach every converted writer: the log.md append (real
  raw/failed so the log is reached, symlinked log.md), a dangling marker
  link, the refused-retry loop with a positive control, a backslash name,
  a buildAndWrite swap race, and the claude-session archive with in-brain
  and outside symlinked archive dirs. The stale lint allowlist entry for
  appendWatcherLog is removed.

The remaining writers created or rewrote brain files by path:
- pipeline buildAndWrite: os.MkdirAll + os.WriteFile of every page.
- BackfillRefs: os.WriteFile of each concept page; a page swapped for a
  symlink after the read was written through (the race test overwrote an
  in-brain target before this change).
- watcher: the raw/processed and raw/failed archive copies (os.Create),
  the .processed/.failed markers and the log.md entry (os.OpenFile).
- cmd/server: the claude-session archive.

All now go through brainfs PutRegular/AppendRegular (new package-level
PutFile/AppendFile for one-off writers: the watcher's call-site lint bans
.Open calls in that file so raw/ reads stay on OpenRegular).

Stacked on #189 (needs PutRegular/AppendRegular).
