Completes the three-layer pack architecture:
identity (who CORE is) + safety (universal red lines)
+ ethics (deployment-specific propositional commitments)
manifold.boundary_ids = identity.boundary_ids
∪ safety.boundary_ids
∪ ethics.commitment_ids
Ethics packs are swappable like identity (fall back to default on load
failure) but propositional like safety (commitment ids union into the
manifold). EthicsPackError inherits from ValueError; only when both
the requested and default packs fail does startup refuse.
Ships default_general_ethics_v1 with five commitments:
- acknowledge_uncertainty
- defer_high_stakes_to_human_review
- disclose_limitations
- no_manipulation
- respect_user_autonomy

Test coverage: 20 new tests; combined identity/safety/ethics surface
suite is 81 tests, all green. Cognition (121), teaching (17), runtime
(19), smoke (67), and cognition eval all unaffected.
