thermo: close the C+ identity-only gap (injective + Bishop-finite), pin O-THERMO-∞ (#58)

## What

Advances the **Thermodynamic — Landauer/Bennett** direction from its
~70% / C+ rating by closing the one concrete gap that drove that rating
and converting the residual into a single *falsifiable* obligation.

The C+ gap was specific: the only proved zero-cost (Bennett) instance
was `bennett-reversible-id-zero` — the **identity map, at index zero**.
`ThermodynamicOptimality(p) := fiber-erasure-bound p σ _≟_ T ≡ 0` was
otherwise unproved off that single point.

### Closed cases (proved)

All `--safe --without-K`, **zero postulates, zero escape pragmas**;
`proofs/agda/All.agda` + `proofs/agda/Smoke.agda` re-verify exit 0.

- `EchoFiberCount.FiberSize-fin-injective` — any injective
  `f : Fin n → B` that hits `y` has fiber size exactly `1`
  (generalises `FiberSize-fin-id-zero` off the identity *and* off
  index zero).
- `EchoThermodynamics.bennett-reversible-injective` — zero erasure
  bound for **every injective map** at every value it hits;
  `bennett-reversible-id-zero` is now a corollary.
- `EchoThermodynamicsFinite` (new) — names the exact blocker to
  generalising past `Fin n` (`fiber-erasure-bound` is routed through
  `FiberSize-fin`, whose totality is structural recursion on the `Fin`
  index bound) and removes it for **any Bishop-finite carrier** via
  transport along an explicit bijection (record `FiniteDomain`):
  `bennett-reversible-finite`, `landauer-collapse-finite`.

### Stated falsifiable obligation

- **O-THERMO-∞** (`docs/ECHO-CNO-BRIDGE.adoc` §"Thermodynamic
  Bridge"): no `--safe`-total cost functional on an infinite carrier
  (`ProgramState = ℕ → ℕ`) can agree with `fiber-erasure-bound` on the
  finite restrictions. Stated with an explicit **kill condition**
  (exhibit such a `cost`, or mechanise the impossibility) — not
  softened to "future work".

## Honours retraction R-2026-05-18

Orthogonal to the retracted graded-comonad / two-models /
conservativity / universal-property / funext claims. No retracted
claim reinstated; no Agda module weakened or edited.

## Docs (same PR)

- `docs/ECHO-CNO-BRIDGE.adoc` §"Thermodynamic Bridge" — proved
  generalisations, O-THERMO-∞, Theorem 4, AZ mapping row.
- `docs/STABILITY_ANALYSIS.md` §3.3 + coverage matrix — C+ 70% → B-
  85%, single residual named.
- `docs/echo-types/MAP.adoc` — Thermodynamic Directions entry + status
  tag (governance rule). Stays `[REAL*]` (real, still partial) until
  O-THERMO-∞ is discharged or refuted.

## Base

Stacked on `docs/echo-types-master-map` (PR #54) because `MAP.adoc`
does not exist on `main` yet and the governance rule requires the
status-tag update in the same PR. Re-target to `main` once #54 lands.

-### What is NOT proved
+### The C+ gap, and how far the bound generalises (2026-05-18)
+
+The `STABILITY_ANALYSIS.md` §3.3 ~70% / C+ rating was driven by a
+single concrete gap: the only proved zero-cost (Bennett) instance was
+`bennett-reversible-id-zero` — *the identity map, at index zero*. The
+general predicate `ThermodynamicOptimality(p) := fiber-erasure-bound
+p σ _≟_ T ≡ 0` (Absolute-Zero mapping table) was otherwise unproved
+off that one point. Two strictly stronger cases are now closed, and
+the residual is pinned to one falsifiable obligation.
+
+**Proved — generalisation past the identity (`EchoFiberCount`,
+`EchoThermodynamics`).** Zero erasure cost holds for *every injective
+map*, at *every value it hits*, not just `id`/`zero`:
+
+```agda
+FiberSize-fin-injective :
+  (f : Fin n → B) (y : B) (_≟_ : DecidableEquality B)
+  (inj : ∀ {i j} → f i ≡ f j → i ≡ j)
+  (i₀ : Fin n) → f i₀ ≡ y →
+  FiberSize-fin f y _≟_ ≡ 1
+
+bennett-reversible-injective :
+  (f : Fin n → B) (y : B) (_≟_ : DecidableEquality B)
+  (inj : ∀ {i j} → f i ≡ f j → i ≡ j)
+  (i₀ : Fin n) → f i₀ ≡ y → (T : Temperature) →
+  fiber-erasure-bound f y _≟_ T ≡ 0
+```
+
+This is the exact constructive content of "reversible ⇒ no
+Landauer-mandated dissipation": injectivity *is* reversibility, a
+singleton fiber *is* the absence of fan-in. `bennett-reversible-id-zero`
+is now a corollary, not the only instance.
+
+**Proved — generalisation past `Fin n` to any Bishop-finite carrier
+(`EchoThermodynamicsFinite`).** What blocks `Fin n → B` from
+generalising is *exactly* one thing: `fiber-erasure-bound` is routed
+through `FiberSize-fin`, whose totality is structural recursion on the
+index bound `n` of `Fin n`. That is removed for any carrier `A`
+carrying an explicit bijection `A ≃ Fin n` (record `FiniteDomain`),
+by transport along the bijection — no new axiom, `--safe --without-K`,
+zero postulates:
+
+```agda
+record FiniteDomain (A : Set) : Set where
+  field card : ℕ; to : A → Fin card; from : Fin card → A
+        from∘to : ∀ a → from (to a) ≡ a

+```
+
+### Open obligation O-THERMO-∞ (precise, falsifiable — not softened)
+
+The infinite carrier (`ProgramState = ℕ → ℕ`, or any `A` with no
+`A ≃ Fin n`) does **not** generalise, and the reason is now stated
+sharply enough to be refuted:
+
+> **O-THERMO-∞.** There is no function
+> `cost : (ℕ → B) → (y : B) → DecidableEquality B → Temperature → Energy`
+> that is (i) `--safe --without-K` total (no postulate, no escape
+> pragma), and (ii) agrees with `fiber-erasure-bound` on every finite
+> restriction `Fin n ↪ ℕ` (equivalently: agrees with
+> `fiber-erasure-bound-fin` for every `FiniteDomain`-witnessed
+> sub-carrier).
+>
+> **Falsifier (how to kill this obligation).** Exhibit such a `cost`
+> and a mechanised proof of (i)+(ii); that refutes O-THERMO-∞ and
+> earns the claim back. **Witness that it bites:** the constant map
+> `c : ℕ → B`, `c _ = y₀` has `Echo c y₀ ≃ ℕ` — an infinite fiber.
+> Clause (ii) instantiated at the finite restrictions forces, by
+> `landauer-collapse`, `cost c y₀ _≟_ T = k · T · ⌊log₂ N⌋` with the
+> finite counts `N = 0,1,2,…` unboundedly — so any total `cost` must
+> assign `⌊log₂_⌋` of a quantity with no natural-number value. The
+> obligation is discharged in exactly one of two ways: a constructive
+> `cost` meeting (i)+(ii) (impossibility refuted), or a mechanised
