+/**
+ * Delete generated content pages whose source markdown is gone.
+ *
+ * `emitAstroPages` writes a page per source file but never removed one,

+ * building, kept deploying, and kept being linked from tag archives.
+ * Measured on the blog — three deleted posts were still live.
+ *
+ * Deleting files needs a tighter contract than writing them, so this is
+ * bounded four ways:
+ *
+ *   ROOT   Only the subtree this invocation owns —
+ *          `src/pages/<basePath>/<section>` — never all of `src/pages`.
+ *          `--section` exists so several converts land in one project;
+ *          walking the whole tree meant each run deleted the previous
+ *          run's section.
+ *   FLOOR  Never prune when this run generated nothing. A mis-set
+ *          `--section`, a moved source dir or a config typo yields zero
+ *          pages, and an unguarded prune would delete the entire site
+ *          and exit 0.
+ *   WHOLE  Never prune when a page failed to generate. The page loop
+ *          warns and continues, so a failed page is absent from
+ *          `generatedPaths` and would look exactly like a deleted one —
+ *          turning a transient serializer throw into a deletion.
+ *   BANNER Only files carrying the `dogsbay convert` banner. That marks
+ *          content pages and their `.md` mirrors; taxonomy and blog
+ *          routes carry a `dogsbay site build` banner and a writer's own
+ *          page carries none. This runs BEFORE those emitters, when last
+ *          build's routes are present and unclaimed, so the distinction
+ *          is what keeps them alive.
+ *
+ * KNOWN GAP: missing-translation stubs are not covered. They carry
+ * `// AUTO-GENERATED missing-translation stub.`, not the convert banner,
+ * so deleting `en/foo.md` leaves `/fr/foo` as a live route redirecting to
+ * a now-404 `/en/foo` — the same symptom, one hop away. Fixing it needs
+ * the stubs tracked in `generatedPaths` first; giving them the convert
+ * banner alone would make every build prune the stub it just wrote.
