Retire three redundant interaction-manifest entries; era-bound a fourth

client-transport:http:protocol-version-stored and
transport:streamable-http:origin-validation were second labels on assertions
their tests already pin under client-transport:http:protocol-version-header
and hosting:http:dns-rebinding respectively (decorators removed, tests kept).
lifecycle:stateless:no-initialize described a pin API that no longer exists,
deferred against coverage that does not exist, and bound no tests.

transport:streamable-http:server-to-client is NOT deleted: the underlying
behaviour is real 2025-era wire truth that 2026 forbids (SEP-2322), so it
gets removed_in="2026-07-28" with the supersession note; the MRTR successor
link lands with the era pass. Cells unchanged (830 before and after).
