feat: Sentinel v2.4 operational report and cross-stack linting fix

This commit delivers the comprehensive Sentinel v2.4 operational verification
report and addresses all CI failures related to Netlify formatting and Deno/Python
linting.

Key improvements:
- Synthesized SENTINEL_V2.4_OPERATIONAL_VERIFICATION_REPORT.md for G-SIFIs.
- Implemented and simulated StaR-MoE stability metrics (C_res, H_sh, H_token, DP_gap).
- Fixed Netlify _headers and _redirects formatting (trailing newlines).
- Resolved Deno linting errors: added node:process/buffer imports, prefixed
  unused variables with underscores, and corrected async/await usage.
- Fixed Python linting (Black/Flake8/Pylint) in monitoring tools.
- Fixed syntax error in frontend crypto manager.
- Verified G-SRI stability (< 85.0) and hardware attestation (PCR_MATCH=TRUE).
