docs: pin QGIS 4.2.3 and compute the projected origin with PROJ

QGIS stable is 4.2.3 on the current KDE runtime; the stale 3.28.9 lts install
stays flagged for removal. PROJ 9.9.0 from that flatpak turns the recorded
origin into E 376515.389 / N 3774224.083 (NAD83 UTM 11N), with six control
points whose projected spans reproduce the OSM footprint measurements. Engine
decision recorded: 5.8.4 is downloading, 5.2.0 stays only as a fallback.

1. **Blosm on Blender 5.2.** Blosm versions historically lag Blender releases. Verify Blosm against the installed Blender 5.2 before the blockout step. If it fails, add a side-by-side Blender 4.5 LTS Flatpak and convert that step's output only; do not mix Blender versions within one asset.
2. **MPFB 2.0.18 on Blender 5.2.** The extension declares Blender >= 4.2 but predates 5.x. The acceptance test is the `0.1.0` requirement to export one MPFB character with baked materials and a deform skeleton and import it into Unreal.
3. **QGIS flatpak tracks a stale LTR.** The flathub `lts` branch is `3.28.9` (2022) on `org.kde.Platform 5.15-21.08`, which is end-of-life. A 2022 QGIS still converts CRS and edits vectors correctly, but its PROJ/GDAL data and processing algorithms are four years behind the current LTR, and the runtime gets no security fixes. Replace it before the geo pipeline depends on it; record whichever version ends up pinned.
3. **Two QGIS installs.** `stable` (4.2.3, current runtime) and the old `lts` (3.28.9, EOL runtime) are both present. Nothing breaks, but launching the wrong one silently gives older PROJ data. Uninstall `lts` and keep one pin. QGIS 4.x also uses Qt6, so any processing recipe copied from a 3.x tutorial needs re-checking before it is trusted.
4. **Driver and Vulkan validation on Bazzite.** Not an officially supported Unreal distribution. Validate before asset production, as `ROADMAP.md` requires.
