/**
 * Capability emulation — key POSSESSION, not an authorization list.
 *
 * In NextGraph a ReadCap **is** the document's read key: whoever holds it reads,
 * and there is no read-ACL anywhere. This module emulates that shape (see
 * `docs/briefs/2026-07-27-p1a-cap-surface.md`), which means it answers exactly one
 * question — *do I hold this document's cap?* — and cannot answer "may principal P
 * read document D", because the real model cannot either.
 *
 * ── Where caps come from — and why this is NOT "a keyring" ────────────────
 * There is no keyring object in NextGraph, and calling this one invited a wrong
 * mental model: that some single place holds every key. It does not. Upstream the
 * caps of a user are in **two** places, by origin (see
 * `docs/readcap-and-nuri-model.md` §4quater/§4quinquies):
 *
 *   - documents the user CREATED → `AddRepo { read_cap }` on the **Store branch**
 *     of the store they live in — one such branch per store;
 *   - caps RECEIVED for someone else's documents → `AddLink { read_cap }` on the
 *     **User branch** of the private store.
 *
 * The wallet itself holds exactly one key per user: the private store's read cap,
 * from which everything else is reached. Hence the invariant:
 *
 *   > You do not derive a cap from a bare reference. You look it up in what you
 *   > hold — or you were given it.
 *
 * This class is the in-memory record of what the connected holder currently holds:
 * upstream's local user storage, not a durable register. The durable ones are
 * emulated in `store-registry.ts` — for created documents, `holdOwnCap` writes and
 * `readStoreCaps` reads the Store branch back; for received ones, `addLink` /
 * `readLinks` on the User branch. `connect.ts` restores the Links at connection;
 * the own-document caps come back through `listMyEntityDocs`.
 *
 * One record PER holder, since one shared wallet hosts every identity. Switching
 * identity therefore SWITCHES records; it never wipes one (a wipe would make
 * durability a lie and bring per-session re-declaration back under another name).
 *
 * ── Sharing ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 * Not here: the unit of sharing is the document and the recipient is an INBOX, so
 * sharing is `inbox.share(doc, toUser)` — a **Link** deposit — and receiving is
 * the recipient processing their inbox. Handing over a store's cap is NOT the
 * gesture: it would give away everything that store contains, present and future.
 *
 * And for a document in a PUBLIC store there is no sharing act at all: the store hands
 * its cap to whoever asks (`public-store.ts`), so what circulates is the bare
 * reference. Filed apart (`learnFromPublicStore`) because it grants reading only.
 *
 * ── What this module does NOT do ──────────────────────────────────────────
 * Enforce. The shape is right after P1a; the isolation is still fake. Per-document
 * encryption and closing the read paths that bypass the guard (an ANCHORLESS
 * `docs.sparqlQuery`, the inbox, `store-registry`, `subscribe`, `open-repo`) are P1b.
 * Nothing may be claimed "anonymous" or "private" until then.
 *
 * The write caps below (`grantWrite`, `governsWrite`, `canWrite`, `hasWritePolicy`) are
 * **inert, not partial** — a distinction the docs got wrong until 2026-08-07, when an
 * adversarial review measured it. `grantWrite` has NO production caller, so
 * `hasWritePolicy()` is permanently false and the `ng-proxy` guard they feed never fires
 * at all. Writing is governed instead by OWNERSHIP, at the write door (`reach.ts`
 * `assertMayWrite`) — which is what upstream's `verify_permission` actually checks. These
 * four are dead surface kept for P1b; do not read them as a working policy.
