fix(trim): audit trail and review list rebuilt from the store; fetch list regenerated

Browse Source 
- auto_trim.py: trim-decisions-auto.json and auto-trim-review.md are now derived
  from the whole store on every run (paragraphs_kept, cut_note, staged files),
  so a run limited to a few cases no longer overwrites the decisions for the
  rest. Restores the full trail: 378 decisions across 287 cases, 36 review
  entries (7 off-case suspects, 12 too small, 20 weak anchors).
- make_fetch_list.py: regenerates the manual fetch list on sofia-worklist.md
  from the store between markers; replaces the hand-written July list. 65
  sources remain unreadable by script, none on a case without other text.
