The site half of IntentFile/intent-specification#17.

Adds ## history — the change trail to docs/spec/entities.md (between locksWithMaster and
hierarchy / leafOnly, keeping the data-integrity cluster together), the entity-attribute table row,
the docs/reference.md DSL-index row, and drops the shipped item from the reference page's
"Planned" list.

Content mirrors the spec section, in site form: the shadow history table, the field-level deltas with
their user/system source, the read-only History panel, and the normative rules in an
::: info Normative container — append-only by construction, every write path appends,
representation-only differences are not changes, the key and audit columns are untracked, and a
scoped surface that hides sensitive: fields is not handed a trail it cannot filter.

Built with npm run docs:build; the new anchor renders as #history-the-change-trail and every
cross-link in the section resolves in the built HTML.

Left open for maintainer review.

Mirrors the specification section: the shadow history table, the field-level
deltas with their user/system source, the read-only History panel, and the
normative rules - append-only by construction, every write path appends,
representation-only differences are not changes, and a scoped surface that
hides sensitive fields is not handed a trail it cannot filter.

Also adds the entity-attribute row, the DSL-index row, and removes the item
from the "Planned" list.
