docs(ci): record resolution of required-gate incident

[proggeramlug]

Summary

• record the remediation lineage for the always-red required-gate incident
• note that fix(ci): restore release readiness gates #8087 restored lint, fix(codegen): record a stable source_filename on emitted modules #8095 fixed Linux ELF source identity for cargo-test, and ci: restructure CI into PR gate / main sweep / full suite tiers #8187 consolidated the required checks behind pr-gate
• close the still-open umbrella tracker now that its functional fixes and regression coverage are on main
