Publish quixos-protocol from c87835bff85794bc232dbaaddc1eb3b593c2aab8

Add native register acknowledgments and idempotent mutation replay, shared optimistic field controllers, overlapping custom setters, non-suspending hooks and explicit Suspense. Carry checked @live provenance through batched queries and hydrate shared browser fields with coverage leases. Update tracker/scaffolds/guides and verify compiler, PostgreSQL, browser and immutable workspace paths.
