feat(geo): cross-check block heights against Mapbox building data

New Geo/tools/mapbox_buildings.py (stdlib urllib) Tilequeries
mapbox-streets-v8 / layer building at each building centroid and merges
height/min_height/type with our OSM height + source (tag > levels > guess,
reusing block_height_report.classify_height). Reports matches, close calls,
disagreements (sorted worst first), our-only and mapbox-only cases, and writes
optional JSON.

First run over 72 buildings: 58 match, 5 close, 3 disagree, 6 non-building.
- Mapbox independently classifies our roof/canopy/shelter volumes as roof,
  canopy or shelter -> corroborates the 0.1.2 finding.
- The 3 disagreements are rear building=yes/apartments structures rendering at
  our 2-level guess (6.4 m) vs Mapbox's 3.0 m.
- Every levels x 3.2 m building is ~0.6 m per 6 levels taller than Mapbox
  implies, i.e. Mapbox suggests 3.1 m per level. Recorded, not applied.

classify_height() now also treats building=canopy as a non-building volume
(found by this cross-check), with tests.

Data handling: Mapbox terms restrict persisting/redistributing their data, so
.gitignore covers Geo/raw/mapbox-cache/ and Geo/verification/*mapbox*; the tool
refuses to cache a response containing the token, and the token is never written
to the cache, report or JSON. Token comes from the ignored .env.

Also: 17 new tests (29 total) for the compare/nearest/centroid/render helpers
and the canopy rule; Geo/README inventory row; architecture 05 + architecture.md
tools table updated per the new upkeep rule.

### Patch tasks - active - 01a1b26b-3c94-707f-9665-2f6b4a79b564 (branch `scale-facade-0.1.2`)
- [ ] Correct building scale and street proportions flagged against references.
- [ ] Correct building scale and street proportions flagged against references. **Cross-check available:** `Geo/tools/mapbox_buildings.py` merges our OSM heights with Mapbox's building data for the same footprints (72 buildings: 58 match, 5 close, 3 disagree, 6 non-building). Three rear `building=yes`/`apartments` structures still render at our 2-level guess (6.4 m) against Mapbox's 3.0 m; and every `levels × 3.2 m` building is 0.6 m taller per 6 levels than Mapbox implies, i.e. **Mapbox suggests 3.1 m per level**. Neither is applied yet — decide from the reference photography.
- [ ] Refine hero façade details where reference photography shows discrepancies.
- [x] **Replace the placeholder heights.** **Resolved 2026-11-08 — they were never unknown buildings.** The three "guessed" ways are not building volumes at all: `1360755125` and `1360755126` are `building=roof` at `layer=1` (elevated canopies) and `1417995292` is `amenity=shelter` / `shelter_type=public_transport` (a transit shelter). The report defaulted them to "2 levels × 3.2 m" and produced the bogus 6.4 m. `Geo/tools/block_height_report.py` now classifies roof/shelter explicitly and reports **0 guessed heights**: all 15 block volumes have a real `height` tag, a `building:levels` derivation, or are correctly excluded as non-building volumes. No photograph measurement was needed, and no frontage building was affected.
- [ ] Resolve the remaining unknown on the hero: the colonnade currently occupies about 45 % of the height against roughly 50–60 % in the photographs. Fix the vertical proportions. **Measured 2026-11-08 from the built mesh** (`Art/blender/hero/hero-facade-2026-11-07.blend`): envelope 0–14.50 m; stylobate 0–2.00; columns 2.00–7.95; capitals 7.95–8.90; entablature 8.90–12.30; parapet 12.30–14.50. So the colonnade (columns + capitals) is **6.90 m = 47.6 %** of the height — inside the range only at the low end. Bringing it to ~55 % needs ~+1.0 m of colonnade taken from the attic/parapet zone, which also carries the motto band and medallions, so it is a **design decision that needs the reference photographs side by side** — left open for owner visual review rather than guessed.
