Module coverage debt ledger

Tracked, not silent — the repo's doctrine for known debt (same pattern as the file-size giants in henxels.yaml). The new_rune_modules_have_canary_or_test_coverage henxel fails any src/rune/*.py module with no test reference and no canary.

Rule: this list only shrinks. Every PR that adds a test or canary for a module removes it here. New modules can never be added — they ship governed. When the list is empty, this file records the fact and the henxel needs no escape.

Mechanism

The henxel reads this file: a module listed under ## Debt is tracked debt (warning-level in the ledger, visible here) instead of a contract failure. The distinction matters — nothing below is approved as "fine", it is known, owned, and scheduled for elimination via the P2 consolidation tranche (#125, #41).

Henxel escape: add the module name to this list only when the PR that touches the module cannot also carry its first test — and say why in the PR body.
