sysadminandClaude Opus 4.8 ed0e8c82de fix(workflow): retire status:pr-open on every terminal PR transition (Closes #780)
status:pr-open was applied by gitea_create_pr and never removed again. Every
terminal path finished without touching it, so a repository audit found 40
closed issues still advertising an open PR.

Add terminal_pr_label_cleanup.py as the single authoritative rule and route
every sanctioned terminal path through it, so the paths cannot drift:

- merge (gitea_merge_pr)
- close without merge (gitea_edit_pr)
- supersession/abandonment (gitea_reconcile_superseded_by_merged_pr)
- already-landed reconciliation (gitea_reconcile_already_landed_pr)
- controller closure (gitea_close_issue)
- retry/recovery (new gitea_cleanup_terminal_pr_labels)

The rule removes only status:pr-open, preserves every other label, allows an
empty resulting set, is a no-op when the label is absent (so retries are
safe), and confirms the outcome by read-after-write rather than assumption.

Controller closure runs the cleanup before the state change and fails closed
if it cannot be completed and verified; closing first would bake in the stale
label with no later step to catch it. Post-merge cleanup never blocks the
merge, which already happened, and reports failures with a safe next action.

Also:
- gitea_assess_terminal_label_hygiene: read-only terminal validation that
  reports residual status:pr-open, exempting issues with a genuinely open PR.
- _put_issue_label_names now accepts Gitea's empty response body when the
  requested set is empty, so clearing the last label works.
- test_audit's close_issue fixture keys on the request instead of call order,
  since closing now also reads labels for the cleanup and its read-back.

Docs: label-taxonomy terminal-transition section, runbook pointer, and the
review-merge / reconcile-landed final-report terminal-label requirements.

Suite: 4045 passed, 11 failed, 6 skipped. The same 11 failures reproduce on
clean master df31674 (4010 passed, 11 failed) and are pre-existing.

"""Authoritative terminal-transition cleanup for ``status:pr-open`` (#780).
``status:pr-open`` is applied by ``gitea_create_pr`` while a linked pull
request is open. Nothing removed it again: the workflow's terminal paths
(merge, close-without-merge, supersession, already-landed reconciliation,
controller closure) each ended without touching the label, so a repository
audit found 40 closed issues still carrying it.
This module is the single source of truth for that cleanup. Every sanctioned
terminal path plans its label mutation here rather than implementing its own
rule, so the paths cannot drift apart:
- :func:`plan_pr_open_cleanup` decides the exact resulting label set. It only
ever removes ``status:pr-open``; every other label is preserved verbatim,
including the case where the result is an empty label set.
- :func:`verify_pr_open_cleanup` is the read-after-write check. It proves the
label is gone *and* that no unrelated label was dropped or added.
- :func:`detect_residual_pr_open` is the terminal validation: given issues, it
reports any that still carry the label, so a controller closure or audit
fails loudly instead of leaving the leak behind.
The rule is idempotent by construction: an issue without the label plans no
mutation, so retries and recovery re-runs are harmless.
This module performs no I/O — callers own the Gitea API calls.
