fix(780): reconcile the ruff gate with #784, merged in parallel (#814)
#780 and #784 were green separately and red together: the gate landed on a base
that predated scripts/check-doc-narrative.py, so nothing ever ran ruff over it.

- RUF100 x2 on `# noqa: BLE001` — BLE is not in this repo's select, so those
  directives suppress nothing. Enabling BLE instead was measured and rejected: 6
  further sites in decisions_validate.py, whose broad catches are deliberate. The
  non-enabled code is dropped; S110 and both comments stay.
- scripts/tests/test_check_doc_narrative.py was not ruff-formatted.

Verified with the shipped invocation: 35 files, all checks passed, all formatted;
suite 807 passed / 2 skipped.

refs #780, refs #784

"""Proofs for `scripts/check-doc-narrative.py` (ersatztv#784).
Every case below is a defect a cold review DEMONSTRATED in the first, shell implementation. They are
here because the never-fails invariant and the reported line numbers are both asserted in prose in
four places (the script header, the workflow comment, `docs/guard-inventory.md` and
`docs/remote-state-inventory.md`), and an invariant asserted only in prose is the shape this repo
keeps getting wrong.
The line-number cases all compare against the TRUTH computed from the file on disk, never against a
number written into the test — a hand-written expectation is a second copy of the parser.
