+ * Plugin merger — flatten a list of plugins + a SteeringConfig into a
+ * single `ResolvedPluginState` the evaluator and observer dispatcher can
+ * drive off directly.
+ *
+ * Per the accepted ADR ("Design → Plugin schema" and "Precedence:
+ * first-wins everywhere"):
+ *
+ *   - predicates / rules / observers — first-registered wins on name
+ *     collision; later entries logged as WARNings.
+ *   - trackers — HARD ERROR on name collision (two plugins claiming the
+ *     same state dimension is always a bug, not a soft-override).
+ *   - trackerExtensions — later plugins can layer modifiers onto an
+ *     existing tracker under a `(tracker, basename)` slot. Multiple
+ *     entries under the same slot are preserved in registration order.
+ *     Extensions targeting an unregistered tracker are warned about and
+ *     ignored.
+ *   - config.disabledRules / config.disabledPlugins — filter rules and
+ *     whole plugins by name. Disabled entries are surfaced via
+ *     `console.info` breadcrumbs (NOT diagnostics, since disabling is
+ *     by-design behavior). `config.disableDefaults` is the caller's
+ *     problem:
+ *     the caller chooses whether to include DEFAULT_PLUGINS in the input
+ *     list (handled upstream by the extension runtime).
+ *
+ * The composed trackers map returned here is what the runtime passes to
+ * `walk()`; the raw `trackers` map from individual plugins is kept on
+ * the result as well for introspection / tests.
