Speeds up the full rebuild for a new slot, e.g. the upcoming Alpine version.

## Changes

- **Seed pure-R binaries** (`local/seed-pure-r.R`, `local/seed-helpers.R`), opt-in via the new `SEED_FROM` variable on `build-all-versions-install-deps`.
  About 74% of the ~84k candidate versions have no compiled code and cost ~20s each to build; their R objects are identical across slots.
  Before the build list is computed, each donor candidate is downloaded and verified, then copied server-side:
  - donor must be the same OS family and arch;
  - DESCRIPTION has `Built` (not a CRAN source fallback) with an empty platform and no `libs/`;
  - built by the target's primary R minor;
  - bincraft's `tarball_abi_verdict()` calls it portable across every installed minor (unknown means no seed).

  Each copy gets the `single_builds` and `abi_flat_safety` rows an upload writes, so build-all skips it and the per-minor indexes keep it.
  Re-runs skip existing objects and rewrite rows idempotently.
- **Interleaved shards** in `local/build-all.R` via `shard_slice()`; contiguous alphabetical quarters ranged from 0.1h to 28h.
- **Shared build deadline**: `build-all-versions` sets `BUILD_DEADLINE` from `BUILD_BUDGET_HOURS` (44h, repo timeout 50h); `build-all.R` and `build-newer-r.R` stop cleanly when it passes, so archiving still runs.
- `codename_platform()` replaces the hard-coded codename-to-platform list.

## Testing

- New unit tests for the seed verdict, candidate filter, platform names and deadline; all `local/tests` pass.
- Verdicts checked on real amd64/alpine324 tarballs: R6 2.6.1/2.5.1 and jsonstat seeded, cli refused as compiled.
- `crow lint .crow/` passes.
- The seed has not run against B2/Postgres yet; the first bootstrap run is its end-to-end test.

## Usage

Trigger `build-all-versions` with `target_arch`, `OS`, `OS_VERSION` and `SEED_FROM="alpine324 alpine323"`.
The new Alpine version still needs adding to the `OS_VERSION` options once its image exists.

d558e27c11 feat: R-minor-sensitive binary builds (full + iterative) (#84)
Some checks failed
ci/crow/cron/process-updates-ubuntu-2204-amd64 Pipeline was successful
ci/crow/cron/process-updates-ubuntu-2204-arm64 Pipeline failed
## Summary

Builds R-minor-sensitive CRAN packages once per installed R minor version (into per-minor S3 slots `…/contrib/<x.y>/`) and everything else once into the generic slot, driven by bincraft 4.2.0's ABI classifier. Both the full and iterative pipelines are covered.

## What's in here

**Detection / precompute**

- `local/r-minor-helpers.R` — pure `classify_from_metadata()` (NeedsCompilation / risky `LinkingTo`) + `parse_build_args()`, with unit tests.
- `local/packages-to-build.R` — adds a per-package `r_minor_sensitive` flag: cheap CRAN-metadata rules first, source download + `bincraft::needs_per_minor_recompile()` only for the ambiguous compiled subset (fail-safe to sensitive). Classified once per package, applied to all versions.

**Full build**

- `local/build-all.R` — passes the per-row `is_r_minor_sensitive` flag; new `--sensitive-only` mode builds just the risky subset.
- `.crow/build-all-versions-{amd64,arm64}.yaml` — install-deps persists the sensitive subset; build step runs a sensitive-only pass under each non-primary `/opt/R/*` minor; new step uploads the generic index plus a per-minor index for each minor.

**Iterative build**

- All 14 `.crow/process-updates-*.yaml` — primary pass uses `r_minor_detection = 'classifier'`; a sensitive-only multi-R pass builds risky updates under each other minor; per-minor index upload added.

**Tooling / housekeeping**

- Pins bincraft `v4.1.1` → `v4.2.0` across all workflows; removes the superseded standalone `build-r-minor-sensitive-packages.yaml`.
- Adds prek/pre-commit hooks (prettier, markdownlint, editorconfig-checker, yamllint, air) and applies them repo-wide; excludes the verbatim GPL `LICENSE.md` and auxiliary shell scripts.
- Design + implementation docs under `docs/superpowers/`.

## Requires before merge

- A `v4.2.0` git tag must be pushed on the bincraft repo (codefloe.com/rpkgs/bincraft) — the workflow install steps pin `@v4.2.0`. The full-build install-deps clones `main`, so it is unaffected.
