Phase 4 slice 3: checks on the gate, and statuses on the page

Phase 4 slice 3: checks on the gate, and statuses on the page A protected branch now requires both an approved change request and passing checks for the commit being landed. Approvals say a person read the change; checks say it works. Neither substitutes for the other. The gate asks about the *approved head*, not about the merge commit somebody may be pushing: CI ran on the head, and a merge commit is a new object nobody built. That also keeps the gate consistent with what approvals already name. Details that decide whether this is usable: - A repository with no workflows is unaffected — nothing to run means nothing to wait for — so existing repositories do not start failing pushes. - A job with no run is refused with an explanation that names the branch filter, because `on: push: branches: [main]` never produces a result for a feature branch. That is the one configuration that can deadlock a merge, and the error says so instead of leaving somebody guessing. - Failed, cancelled, still-running and missing are four different messages; a reviewer should be able to tell which. - `vole acl checks <repo> on|off` turns it off, default on. Statuses are readable: the repository page lists recent runs (job, commit, status, attempts, age) and a change request shows its head's job statuses next to the approvals, so the reviewer sees the same facts the gate uses. Tests cover the three interesting shapes: approved + green lands; approved + red is refused naming the failed job; approved + no run at all is refused with the branch-filter hint. Verified on a live instance: pushing a workflow queues and runs it, the repository page shows `build · .vole/workflows/ci.yaml · success`, and the change request shows `wilbur · current` alongside `build · success`. Phase 4 is now complete except signed run records, which are Phase 7's.
