Release Deletion Guards

POST 
/api/v1/admin/deletion-guards/release

Clear stuck delete guards. Admin only; explicit list, no wildcard. Preconditions are re-checked here rather than trusted from the marker, the same TOCTOU reasoning as the D1b drop guards. The one fact taken from the marker is first_seen, for guards too old to carry a start_time — it is the only record of their age, and it can only under-state it, so it never lets a young guard through. This frees the 409 only. The name reservation is deliberately left held, so no same-name resource can be created and then destroyed by a late cleanup — release those separately via /admin/name-fences/release once the physical objects are confirmed gone.
