Rewrite Passepartout architecture page as narrative introduction

- architecture.org becomes a narrative: problem → three-subsystem solution
  → staged approach → what it means
- Moved TAM, revenue paths, analytical frames, strategy/IP links to _index.org
- _index.org is now the navigation hub with roadmap table and all catalog links

This section documents the Passepartout architecture: the staged build-out from conventional computing through verified infrastructure, the subsystems, and the systemic effects of verification becoming the default.
This section documents the Passepartout architecture the narrative introduction, the staged build-out, the systemic effects, and the analytical frames that justify it.

**Staged roadmap (progressive capability layers):**
Each stage covers: what is added, what threats are eliminated, what it costs, when it is viable.

**Revenue streams:**
Total addressable market: ~$960B/year across cloud, AI, OS, social media, payments, productivity, and compliance. The business model is the AWS of provable computing: AGPL infrastructure is free, revenue comes from verification appliances, gate rules, certification, namespace registry, hosted PDS, and a [[id:3c6b0449-a8fb-5b89-b82a-34efb21ef5b5][compute marketplace]].
