Allow callers to authorize one atomic surface update through generic retained object handles while TP remains the sole owner of mount resolution, buffer publication, and rollback.
Verified: byte compilation with warnings as errors; 726 ERT tests; 92 doctests; targeted scoped-update tests; checkdoc; git diff --check.
Allow retained logical objects to own multiple marker-backed output fragments without leaking handles or positions into pure plans. Expose only defensive numeric mount snapshots through the public object index.
Verified: 718 ERT tests, 92 doctests, WERROR compile-all, checkdoc, and git diff --check.
Expose one-shot string and buffer styling plus reactive range watches over the same schema, mutation, binding, and retained surface core.
