Subject: [PATCH] docs(ml): frontier-context note on the model ledger

Same-instrument numbers from the protocol ledger: GLM-5.2 2.51 DER
plain completion vs GLM-5.3-Flash 8.57 / GLM-5.3 9.98 raw on
SadeedDiac-25 (1,200 paragraphs, windowed zero-skip evaluator);
attribution: wrong vowels, not convention. Dedicated distilled
models framed as the reproducible, protocol-pinned path. Links
rababa/docs/RESULTS.md for the disclosed rows.
