docs(knowledge): Reference Transition Scenarios (RTS-001..003) + ISO9001->CRA pattern

Three ANONYMIZED reference transition scenarios (no real company names stored) = canonical
regression scenarios that test the KNOWLEDGE, not just the engine. Each pins an Expected
Outcome (expected_likely_covered + expected_delta); every commit must reproduce it (identical
or better).

- RTS-001 automotive supplier (TISAX+ISO27001) -> CRA: mature ISMS, standard CRA delta.
- RTS-002 classic machine builder (ISO9001) -> CRA: only process discipline -> MUCH larger delta
  (10 missing vs 3 covered). New TP-ISO9001-CRA-v1 pattern (different shape).
- RTS-003 networked machine builder (ISMS) -> CRA: highlights the Data Act.

Data Act is modelled as UNCERTAIN (a hypothesis), never a fixed gilt/gilt-nicht: the generator
checks the engine SURFACES the uncertainty + the deciding question (generates_usage_data) and
never wrongly ASSERTS applicability. All three RTS PASS.

Non-runtime knowledge + reference harness -> no deploy (ADR-001). Names deliberately absent.

A networked machine is MORE likely to fall under the Data Act than a pure component, but it is NOT
a settled fact — it depends on usage-data generation, user access, and scope. The Reference Suite
checks that the engine recognises the RIGHT uncertainty and asks the deciding question, NOT that it
writes a fixed gilt/gilt-nicht.

# Transition KNOWLEDGE Pattern (TKP) — ISO 9001 (QMS) -> CRA (Reg. (EU) 2024/2847)

Curated expert knowledge, NOT a normative proof. KEY INSIGHT: ISO 9001 is a QUALITY management
system — it provides process discipline but no information-security or product-cybersecurity
capability. The CRA delta for an ISO-9001-only manufacturer is therefore LARGE (nearly the whole
CRA security + vulnerability-handling + conformity set). Welt-1; confidence from the curated relationship.

Two independent auditors should agree that an ISO-9001-only manufacturer needs almost the whole CRA
security set; the QMS reduces effort only on documentation/change/release discipline.
