diaz-modulus-lean: the companion note reaches 1.0, where the case analysis ends

The companion note to diaz-modulus-lean is now fixed at stable version 1.0 (f4cca8b) — the point at which the formal case analysis stops rather than a point along it. Every branch of Diaz’s conjecture is either closed by a machine-checked proof or reduced, by a machine-checked reduction, to one of three statements: that e^{-iγ/π} is transcendental for real algebraic γ ≠ 0, that e^{β/π} is transcendental for real algebraic β ≠ 0, and that |u| is transcendental for a generic conjugate pair of logarithms, which is the conjecture itself. All three follow from the strong four exponentials conjecture, and the note says so, with the section the abstract had always promised and the body never contained; section 5 gains the two interpolation obstructions proved on 19 September.

The release records its own checks: the 33 identifiers of Appendix A were verified against the platform by script with zero mismatches, and 166 of 166 proved results are mirrored, with lake build Diaz clean and only propext, Classical.choice and Quot.sound behind them. The axiom list is now checked by CI instead of by hand, and prove2me-logs mirrors the note at the same tag.
