* Refine live-to-final long-running session RFC
* Mark RFC accepted, decouple from live PR status, normalize terminal state names
Three follow-up adjustments to the refined live-to-final RFC:
- Status: Proposed -> Accepted, since the doc is now referenced as the parent
contract for follow-up slices; live implementation status stays in #3400.
- Keep volatile PR/merge state out of the RFC body. The Public Inventory and
Delivery map now state that their classification/vehicle columns record
durable scope, and that #3400 is authoritative for open/merged/superseded
status. Dropped the point-in-time "has shipped through release" / "remains an
active PR" assertions that would drift as PRs land.
- Normalize terminal-state naming: use the backticked snake_case identifiers
(`cancelled`, `compression_exhausted`, `tool_limit_reached`, `no_response`,
`interrupted`, `error`) consistently in prose, and add a note that these name
product states, not a wire/enum or persisted schema contract (consistent with
Scope, which does not own a backend schema change).

Merging the RFC as the agreed product contract for long-running-session assistant replies. Thank you @franksong2702! 🙏
It's docs-only (no code), well-structured, and gives the project a shared vocabulary for the follow-up implementation slices — in particular the honest terminal-state set (completed / cancelled / interrupted / compression-exhausted / tool-limit-reached / no-response / error, specific-wins-over-generic) and the live → settled → recovery/replay lifecycle. Nathan blessed merging it as the north-star contract.
