proof-kinds: one builder for every AIP-23 proof kind

A generic builder of AERE Proof Protocol envelopes (AIP-23) for the standard proof kinds: data, execution, identity, compliance, runtime, location, device, payment, ownership, time, block, authorization, settlement and provenance. Every kind produces the same envelope (statement plus statementHash, the SHA-256 of the canonical statement text), so the same AIP-23 reference verifier checks all of them with no kind-specific verification code.

import { buildProof, KINDS } from './proof-kinds.mjs';
const envelope = buildProof('runtime', { host, artifactContent, attested, matches: true, createdAt });

A kind is a schema: its required fields, some of them digests, plus createdAt. Raw content given for a digest field is hashed (bytes as they are, strings as UTF-8, other values as their JSON text), and a value that is already a 32-byte digest is kept, so an envelope carries digests, never the raw content. A missing required field stops the build with an error instead of producing an incomplete envelope. Notarization and post-quantum finality come from AIP-23, not from this builder.

Test: node proba-proof-kinds.mjs (24 checks: every kind built and found VALID by the reference verifier, six negative controls such as content changed after hashing or a required field missing, no raw content in any envelope, bytes hashed as bytes). It needs the AIP-23 reference verifier: AERE_VERIFY_PROOF=<path to verify-proof.mjs> (from the aere-node repository, after npm install there); without it the test reports that it did not measure and exits with 2. Node.js 24.
