docs: surface Prometheus four-feature win in READMEs
Update both the Prometheus README and the top-level README to reflect today's substrate-moat win streak: - Content-addressed checkpoints (round-trip verified) - Geodesic bias primitive (numerically matches PyTorch impl) - Harmonic SGD (WINS 3/3 seeds, -13.2% mean loss) - Substrate-cached inference (survives model reload) The priority list in omnimcode-core/src/prometheus/README.md flips from "to do" to "done" with per-item evidence.
