Drew T e76a55abdf fix(distill): a stale READY marker no longer blocks the lane forever
A marker is a CLAIM on work, not a record of it. axbm.json sat in .run/distill_ready
for 10.5 hours AFTER its waves were distilled into cookbook §269 — the reviewer landed
the sections, updated the mined state, and never removed the marker — and distill_scan's
one-pending-marker-at-a-time rule (correct, it stopped eight overlapping batches) then
refused to raise anything while 18 waves / 315 novel candidates accumulated behind it.

The marker's own waves are checkable against the mined state, so check them: a marker
whose every wave is already mined clears itself and says so. Negative control (R39): a
marker naming any still-unmined wave survives untouched.

Same family as R47 — a stage that consumes work must also consume the token that
represents it.
