test(harness): L2 tests -- ablazione session + value grounding + memory save-one (D4, D5)

Pre-release, non-deterministic tests (marker l2, skipped without .env + VPN). They
close the gaps L1 leaves open: real value grounding on the live schema, real memory
save-one upsert to pgvector, and the full GLM 5.2 -> gate conversation on the
'ablazione' question (which exercises D14 value grounding + formula on a multi-
column case + the gate glue L1 cannot reach).

workspaces/chirone-test.yaml points at the remote endpoints (DWH read-only +
pgvector dual-key, TLS self-signed); secrets via ${THOTH_*}.

- test_session_ablazione: precondition checks (workspace loads, env present, pi on
  PATH) + the documented manual run protocol (human-in-the-loop; scripted-answers
  variant is a follow-up). Default run skips cleanly.
- test_value_grounding_real: 'ablazione' grounds to multiple columns on the real
  schema (D14a non-collapsing), needs a built LSH index.
- test_memory_save_one_real: save_one_memory upserts one row via the writer key
  (D11) and search_similar retrieves it via the reader key.

Operator runs before release (pytest -m l2). Default run: 109 passed, 5 skipped.

+"""L2: full session -- 'ablazione' question with GLM 5.2 + real DWH (spec D4, L2).
+
+End-to-end validation that L1 cannot do: GLM 5.2 driving the real harness against
+the real Chirone DWH + pgvector, on the 'ablazione' question (exercises D14 value
+grounding + formula on a multi-column case), through the gate glue (widget-descriptor
+emit/consume) that L1 cannot reach.
+
+MODES (both manual, non-deterministic, pre-release -- NOT a regression gate):
+  - human-in-the-loop (default): the reviewer answers each gate widget via terminal.
+  - scripted answers (opt-in, --answers-file): canned reviewer answers for the
+    Altro/value-grounding/rollback paths so specific behaviors assert deterministically.
+
+HOW TO RUN (operator, before release):
+  1. Populate harness/.env (THOTH_DWH_API_KEY, THOTH_VEC_API_KEY,
+     THOTH_VEC_WRITE_API_KEY, THOTH_SSL_CA, THOTH_*_REST_URL, THOTH_OLLAMA_URL).
+  2. Connect VPN. Ensure Pi is configured locally with GLM 5.2.
+  3. Run: pytest -m l2 tests/l2/test_session_ablazione.py -s
+
+The full LLM->gate conversation is exercised manually here; this file provides the
+prerequisite checks (workspace loads, env present, Pi on PATH) and documents the
+session-assertions the operator confirms by inspection (sql_final.sql present and
+read-only-validates; the ledger shows value_grounded or concept_formula_approved
+-- i.e. D14 surfaced). Automated assertions grow as a fake-Pi driver lands.
