fix(rank): treat non-ISO stored deadlines as absent in urgency and the sweep

Browse Source 
Rule 6's expiry sweep mutates status automatically from stored deadline
values, yet had no rule for the non-ISO shapes portals have shipped into
seen_jobs.json ("ASAP", DD.MM.YYYY, free text) - "ASAP" is incomparable
and "01.09.2026" is ambiguous between 1 Sep and 9 Jan. /outcome, which
merely displays dates, already carried the defensive-parse rule. A
non-YYYY-MM-DD stored value is now handled like an absent one (left
alone, never compared, never guessed at) and reported once with its
portal. Includes the F24-style coupling test. Review finding F17
(2026-08-19).

@@ -73,8 +73,8 @@ Back in the main context, for each scored job:
2. Map to the framework's verdict bands (Strong Fit 75+, Good Fit 60-74, Moderate Fit 45-59, Weak Fit 30-44, Poor Fit <30).
3. **Location veto:** `FAIL` (e.g. requires relocation) excludes the job from the shortlist no matter the score - list it separately with the reason. `FLAG` (e.g. heavy travel) stays in the ranking but carries a visible ⚠ marker for the user to judge.
4. **Language veto:** `language_gate: FAIL` (posting requires a language the candidate hasn't declared at all) excludes the job from the shortlist, same as a location FAIL - list it under "Excluded" with the quoted requirement from `language_note`. `language_gate: FLAG` (declared language, requirement reads above the declared level) stays in the ranking with a visible ⚠ marker and `language_note` shown alongside the score, same treatment as a location FLAG.
5. **Deadline urgency:** a deadline within 7 days gets a 🔥 marker and wins ties. A deadline that has already passed moves the job to `expired`. Take the deadline from the scoring agent's Step 2 JSON for a job scored in this run, and from the stored `deadline` in `seen_jobs.json` for one that already carries it - a stored value costs no fetch, so urgency is re-derived on every run without re-reading the posting. When both exist and disagree, the freshly scored value wins and replaces the stored one.
6. **Expiry sweep over already-ranked entries.** Before presenting, check the stored `deadline` of every `ranked` entry this run did not re-score. Any whose deadline has passed becomes `expired`; any within 7 days is listed under a short **Closing soon** heading in Step 5 with its 🔥 marker. This needs no fetch and no agent - it is a date comparison against values already on disk, and it is what finally enforces `/scrape`'s "only open positions" rule beyond the moment of fetching. **An entry with no stored `deadline` is left alone, never guessed at** - most entries predate the column, and inferring a deadline from `first_seen` would retire jobs on a date nobody set. `--all` re-scores entries of any status including `expired`, so a job the sweep retired can still be revived by a later `--all` that re-fetches it and finds the posting live: the sweep is reversible, which is what makes an automated status change acceptable here at all.

A stored value that does not parse as `YYYY-MM-DD` is skipped for urgency as well - rule 6's defensive-parse rule applies wherever a stored deadline is compared.

Sort by overall score (descending), urgency as tiebreaker.
