fix(active-content): raw-html graded two inert shapes HIGH, and the fix moved a second surface
`is_active_tag`'s URL-attribute branch was a presence test: any element carrying `href=`/`src=`/`action=` graded HIGH regardless of where the URL pointed. An MDX `<Card href="/en/agent-sdk/quickstart">` reaches no attacker-controlled host, and neither does APIM policy XML's `<set-header>`. It now requires an external target -- the rule the markdown paths have applied since 0.3.1. `<base>` left the active name set in the same change: HTML's `<base>` has its whole affordance in an `href` the attribute branch still catches, and APIM's attribute-less `<base />` is inert. Measured before and after in ONE session against one corpus state, because two of the three corpora are living and a split would mix this with re-harvest drift: reference-corpus 389 docs 133 -> 108 (ceiling 107) vendor-harvest 187 docs 100 -> 98 (ceiling 62) generated-notes 550 docs 90 -> 88 (ceiling 49) 96% of the achievable reduction in reference-corpus, 5% in the wiki corpora. The two classes had to be measured TOGETHER -- alone they free 3 and 13 documents, together 25, because a document carrying one usually carries the other. The second surface: `neutralize` imported `is_active_tag` by name, so this would have silently narrowed the opt-in mutator too -- and no test discriminated the two halves, since every `neutralize:raw-html` payload stays active under any narrowing considered. That test is written first here. The predicates are now separate symbols; the mutator keeps defanging anything, because over-defanging is auditable and blocks nothing while under-defanging hands a human a live construct. Behaviour change: a document whose only finding was one of these classes now WARNs instead of holding. Detection is unchanged -- 128/128 classes, 6/6 gaps hold. Self-safety: reading an attribute VALUE needs a pattern the presence test lacks. It reuses the same literal alternation so no new run shape enters the table; its `_REDOS_PAYLOADS` row denies the `=` the pattern requires, since a unit supplying it matches at once and never exercises the run (the lexicon's `script-tag` row is the cautionary case). 0.031-0.046s across five attack shapes at 100_000 chars against a 2.0s bound; `docs/redos-sweep.py` reports 0 candidates of 152. An attribute the presence test saw but the value parser cannot read counts as external -- fail secure. `docs/rawhtml-census.py` gains a PRODUCTION row that re-measures the shipped predicate rather than a hypothesis, so a published number and the code cannot drift apart unnoticed. README's limitation count moves 34 -> 33. 727 passed (was 717).
