fix(evaluation): update stale Language Gate preamble to reflect tracking

04-job-evaluation.md still said the gate result "is not a field /scrape
or /rank track" - true when the gate was introduced, false since /rank
began persisting language_gate/language_note as shortlist veto fields
and /scrape began surfacing the flag. The authoritative framework file
taught agents the opposite of rank.md's own persistence rule. New
coupling test pins that the section names the tracked fields and never
reverts to the untracked claim. framework_version 1.2.3 -> 1.2.4.
Review finding F24 (2026-08-19).
