spillover-tva: address CI codex R7 P2 — 2-decimal precision contract

R7 noted that the notebook, README, and CHANGELOG publish 2-decimal
numbers (-4.29, -7.34, -4.53, -5.38, -2.59) but the drift tests only
enforce round-to-1 precision. Future drift smaller than 0.05 could
leave the prose stale without failing any test.

Mixed fix:

- WELL-CONDITIONED headline pins tightened to round-to-2 (matching
  what the prose actually quotes):
    * test_naive_att_endpoint_matches_quoted: -4.3 → -4.29
    * test_spillover_did_recovers_tau_total: -7.3 → -7.34
    * test_spillover_did_recovers_delta_1: -4.5 → -4.53

- BORDERLINE rings=[0,50] grid point left at round-to-1 (per the R5
  reviewer's BLAS-safety guidance). Notebook §4 prose coarsened to
  match: "-5.38" → "~-5.4" and "-2.59" → "~-2.6", with an explicit
  parenthetical explaining WHY this point uses 1-decimal precision
  while §5 uses 2 (borderline-rank-deficient design under d_bar=50
  can shift across BLAS paths).

Headline values are stable across BLAS paths to better than 0.005
(verified on Apple Silicon; cross-platform variance on well-
conditioned fits is sub-ULP). The drift-test docstrings now
explicitly document the 2-decimal vs 1-decimal contract for future
maintainers.
