Per operator: the level ladder is now the FOUR essential rungs every recipe is
held to — install, upgrade (essential), backup/restore, functional (top = L4).
Integration (SSO/OIDC) and recipe-local are OPTIONAL capabilities: they no longer
appear as level rungs or skip rows and never cap the level. SSO is still enforced
for the run VERDICT (unchanged in run_recipe_ci.py); it just doesn't affect the
level. derive_rungs simplified accordingly (drops declared/deps/sso/repo-local
inputs). custom-html-tiny's EXPECTED_NA is back to just backup_restore.

Per operator: drop the gap-sensitivity / cap-intent-clause / stale-detection
machinery. Model is now dead simple — recipe_meta.EXPECTED_NA = {rung: reason}
lists the rungs a recipe intentionally skips; ANY rung skipped (N/A) and not in
that list is unintentional.
results.json: replace the 'na' block + level_cap_intent with
skips: { intentional: {rung: reason}, unintentional: [rung] }
plus level_cap_rung (which rung capped). Badge/card derive intentional-vs-
unintentional from whether the capping rung is in the intentional list. Skips
still cap the level (never inflate). custom-html-tiny lists all three rungs it
intentionally skips (backup_restore, integration, recipe_local).

The level badge gains a third segment derived from level_cap_intent:
- amber 'gap?' when the climb was capped by an UNDECLARED gap-sensitive N/A
(backup_restore / functional) — a likely-missing test (unexpected skip)
- muted 'expected' when capped by a DECLARED intentional N/A (reviewed, nothing to fix)
- nothing extra for a clean cap, a full climb, or a real failure.
Font-safe text labels (no emoji) so the SVG renders headless/anywhere. Badge
never inflates — it only annotates the cap the level already reflects.
