fix(rest,client)!: reconcile the two REST-client mismatches the audit ledgered (#3610, #3611)

#3610: the REST package registrar claimed the bare POST /packages for
marketplace publish ({manifest, metadata}) while the dispatcher packages
domain gives the same verb+path install semantics — and REST registers
first in the production stack (first-match-wins), so every
client.packages.install call landed on the publish handler and 400'd.
Marketplace publish moves to POST /api/v1/packages/publish (zero direct
callers found repo- and objectui-wide; the dispatcher's two-segment
POST /packages/:id/publish is a different shape, no clash). The remaining
REST GET/GET/DELETE shadows are compatible and stay: the dispatcher
already double-writes on install (protocol.installPackage) and fully
uninstalls on DELETE (protocol.deletePackage).

#3611: meta.getView spoke the ?type= query dialect only the dispatcher
/ui domain understands; REST mounts only the path form
/ui/view/:object/:type, so the query form 404'd wherever REST serves
(e.g. project-scoped bases). The client now sends the path form both
surfaces accept, with a URL-pinning test — no test locked this URL
before, which is exactly how the split survived.

REST route ledger: both mismatch rows resolved (packages publish row is
server-only publisher tooling; ui row flips to sdk). Zero mismatches
remain.

+fix(rest,client)!: reconcile the two REST↔client mismatches the #3587 audit
+ledgered (#3610, #3611)
+
+**#3610 — `POST /api/v1/packages` publish-vs-install collision.** The REST
+package registrar claimed the bare `POST /packages` for *marketplace publish*
+(`{manifest, metadata}`), while the dispatcher packages domain gives the same
+verb+path *install* semantics — and REST registers first in the production
+stack (first-match-wins), so every `client.packages.install` call landed on
+the publish handler and 400'd. Marketplace publish moves to
+`POST /api/v1/packages/publish` (breaking for direct callers; a repo-wide and
+objectui-wide sweep found zero). The dispatcher's `POST /packages/:id/publish`
+(ADR-0033 draft publish) is two segments — different shape, no clash. The
+dispatcher already writes both stores on install (`protocol.installPackage`)
+and fully uninstalls on DELETE (`protocol.deletePackage`), so the remaining
+REST GET/GET/DELETE shadows stay — they are compatible.
+
+**#3611 — UI view dialect split.** `meta.getView` spoke the `?type=` query
+dialect that only the dispatcher `/ui` domain understands; the REST surface
+mounts only the path form `/ui/view/:object/:type`, so the query form 404'd
+wherever REST serves (e.g. project-scoped bases). The client now sends the
+path form both surfaces accept; a URL-pinning test keeps it that way.
+
+REST route ledger updated: the two `mismatch` rows are resolved (packages
+publish row is `server-only` publisher tooling; the ui row flips to `sdk`).
+The ledger now carries zero mismatches.
