- tests: make the transient-backoff progression assertion load-independent by
bracketing the get_retry_decision call with before/after timestamps instead of
measuring against a second datetime.now() (no freezegun dependency).
- tests: use pytest.approx for the ingest-queue-depth gauge assertions —
SonarCloud python:S1244 (float == ) was a MAJOR reliability finding that
tripped the new_reliability_rating quality gate.
- processor: tighten the EscalateError lazy-bind comment (file processing already
imports the document stack via get_registry; the gating only spares the
delete / text-doc paths and module-load time).
Deck #323.
