Punch list item 2: MINT-SCRATCH-EMIT, verified live on all 3 arches

Adds the hand-transcription mechanism FABRIC-3.md §XXXII.2's punch list
item 2 calls for: MINT-SCRATCH-EMIT prints the last successful
MINT-SCRATCH's drive_uuid + cert devblock as ready-to-paste FORTH
source (HEX-based CREATE ... C, ... byte sequences), so packaging an
unattended identity into a capsule is a mechanical copy out of the
captured boot log rather than a manual hex-to-FORTH translation an
operator could transpose a digit in.

Refuses (no output) if no MINT-SCRATCH has ever succeeded -- printing
4112 zero bytes as if they were a real identity would be a silent,
misleading success, matching this session's own error-handling audit
discipline rather than adding a new silent-failure primitive right
after finishing one.

Verified live on amd64: MINT-SCRATCH-EMIT correctly refuses before any
mint, then after MINT-SCRATCH succeeds, emits UNATTENDED-ID-UUID and
UNATTENDED-ID-CERT as valid FORTH literals. Cross-checked byte-exact:
the cert's own embedded ASN.1 serialNumber field matches the emitted
UUID bytes exactly, confirming x509_build_user_cert()'s drive_uuid
binding round-trips correctly through the scratch-device path. Clean
3-arch qemu boot (amd64/aarch64/riscv64).

Remaining punch-list items (writing/committing a real capsule file for
an actual named identity, the unattended-birth call site, the ACL cap
bit) not started -- authoring a real committed capsule needs a name/
purpose decision that isn't mine to make.
