test(loadbearing): positive controls for three measured-vacuous negatives

Continues the sibling-vacuity sweep (pkt. 2). Each fix is value-proved:
GREEN BEFORE / RED AFTER under the same mutation, never a detach-proof alone.

- test_goal_without_ledger_reads_an_empty_book asserted only `code == 0`.
  Measured: stubbing check_goal_before_spend to return False before ever
  reading the ledger left it GREEN — it could not tell "empty book, goal
  evaluated" from "check skipped", which is the one thing its name claims.
  Now asserts the evaluation line (realized 0 of 1.0 NOK, not reached).

- test_the_allowlist_names_only_flags_the_cli_actually_has computed
  `missing == []` over _PORTFOLIO_SUPPORTED_DESTS. Measured: mutating the
  allowlist to frozenset() left it GREEN — an empty iteration yields an
  empty list, so a blind scanner reports no findings exactly as a clean one
  does. Now proves the detector fires on a flag the CLI lacks first.

- test_the_system_prompt_is_empty asserted `system_prompt is None`, which is
  the SDK's OWN default (measured, 0.2.120). Deleting `system_prompt=None`
  from build_call_options left it GREEN: it pinned the SDK, not our code.
  The distinguishable seam is the Claude Code preset the S10 post-mortem
  retired, so the test now guards that and is renamed for what it proves.
  The None-vs-untouched limit is UNCONTROLLABLE and stated in the test.

Also pins the SDK defaults both assertions choose against, so a future SDK
shipping [] or a preset default degrades the anchor loudly instead of
silently (an ANCHOR CAN DEGENERATE).

Negative findings, so no session re-measures them: test_zero_model_calls is
NOT vacuous (detaching the dry-run gate goes RED — though it dies inside the
client, before reaching its own `calls == []`); notify/ir/validator/step1
and the two cli_paritet flag tests are covered by same-class sibling pairing
on the same function.
