ci: enforce mappable co-author credit

Add AUTHOR_MAP plus a lightweight co-author trailer checker so harvested commits use numeric GitHub noreply identities, reject bot/tool trailers, and require machine-readable credit when a commit says it was harvested from a PR.

Also normalize the local unpushed v0.9 harvest range so existing contributor authors/trailers for HUQIANTAO, Implementist, jrcjrcc, xyuai, cyq1017, idling11, and shenjackyuanjie use GitHub-mappable identities before the branch is published.

Validation: python3 scripts/check-coauthor-trailers.py --author-map .github/AUTHOR_MAP --range origin/main..HEAD --check-authors; python3 -m py_compile scripts/check-coauthor-trailers.py; ruby -e 'require "yaml"; YAML.load_file(".github/workflows/ci.yml")'; git diff --check; negative in-process validation for raw email, missing harvested credit, and bot author cases.

- If the maintainer copies or adapts your code, the harvested commit also
keeps attribution with the original author identity when possible: either by
preserving the commit author on a cherry-pick or by adding a
`Co-authored-by: Name <email>` trailer from the original PR commit. This is
`Co-authored-by: Name <id+login@users.noreply.github.com>` trailer. This is
what lets GitHub's contribution surfaces recognize more than prose credit.
Maintainers should use `.github/AUTHOR_MAP`, or run
`gh api users/<login> --jq '"\(.id)+\(.login)@users.noreply.github.com"'`,
rather than copying raw, `.local`, or old-style noreply emails from a
contributor's machine.
- The `CHANGELOG.md` entry for the next release credits you by handle.
- The auto-close workflow closes your PR with a templated thank-you and
a link to the commit on `main`.
