fix(runtime_provision): use team-template risk_profile, not hardcoded toolfree
The provisioner was hardcoding risk_profile=toolfree for every claw,
which the ZeroClaw config explicitly configures to EXCLUDE every
usable tool (shell, file_read, file_write, http_request, browser).
Result: coder/tester/committer claws had zero tools and produced text
in the context window with no ability to actually write files or run
tests — exactly what the last mission summary showed.

Fixes:
- provision_claw now takes risk_profile: &str, passed through from
  the team template (development teams already had coding_readwrite,
  which now actually gets applied).
- Research team templates updated from toolfree → research_readonly
  (file_read) and papers_research → research_web_readonly
  (file_read + web_search + web_fetch). Applied to both the on-disk
  TOML files and the live DB rows.
- Added RuntimeProvisioner::default_risk_profile_for_role for
  auto-provision code paths that lack a template context — picks
  coding_readwrite for coder-like roles, research_readonly otherwise.
- Split rebind_model out of provision_claw so the model-change UI
  path doesnt inadvertently clobber the existing risk_profile.

Templates DB fixup for missions launched pre-deploy is already
applied via manual UPDATE.

- arXiv daily new listings for each subject class in the tracked topics
- RSS feeds (curated list; do not add without operator approval)
- GitHub trending (filter by tracked language + tracked topic)
- HN + Lobsters + subreddit filters

open question in the vault?
- Depth: is this a primary source, or the 5th blog rehash of a paper?

## Redlines
- Do not up-rank items just because they're recent. Time is not a
quality signal.
- Do not down-rank items because they contradict our current line of
work. Contradiction is high-signal.
## Escape hatches
- Anything with `[operator-attention]` tag from the harvester bypasses
scoring — the operator explicitly flagged it.

## Discipline
- The "why it matters" sentence always links to an internal vault node.
If none applies, the item shouldn't be in the digest.
- The "what to do about it" is a decision, not a hedge. Never write
"consider evaluating" — pick one.
## Format
- Frontmatter carries the run date + total items harvested vs surfaced
ratio so we track selectivity drift over time.
