Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 1d03b508a7 Let trace stubs emit values, so traces reach guarded branches
A stub that prints nothing makes `size=$(du -sk x)` empty, so every
`((size > 0))` is false and the trace walks past every guarded branch.
Two such traces compare identical while exercising none of the changed
code -- a green check that proves nothing, which is the exact failure
mode this harness exists to prevent.

--stub now takes `name=output`. Measured on a fixture whose `sudo rm -rf`
is guarded by a size test: the silent stub gives `size=[]` / "branch
skipped" and never records the rm; `--stub 'du=4096\t/some/dir'` gives
`size=[4096]` / "BRANCH TAKEN" and captures it.

This weakens the earlier disk_cleanup_check.sh trace, which used a silent
du stub: that trace only proved the empty-size path identical. The real
run from /tmp is what covered the populated path. Noted in the evidence.

Docs also record two limits found while surveying: file-placement
installers are not yet traceable (stub cp/chmod/ln and the trace is
empty; don't and it rewrites the live system), and baselines for scripts
reading relative paths must run from the script's own directory.
