+/**
+ * block-preprocess.mjs — THE line-preprocessing contract for the block parsers
+ * under `scripts/lib/config/` (#1162).
+ *
+ * Every block parser here begins with `content.split(/\r?\n/)`, then walks lines
+ * looking for its own header and the indented sub-keys under it. Two markdown
+ * shapes that are ordinary in a CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md were invisible to that
+ * walk, and both failed in the dangerous direction:
+ *
+ *   (a) A block commented OUT with a multi-line `<!-- … -->` was read as LIVE
+ *       config. Commenting a key out is the most ordinary way to disable it; it
+ *       must not arm it. (`_extractConfigSection` learned this in #1097 — the
+ *       block parsers never did.)
+ *   (b) The bold-bullet rendering of a SUB-key (`- **enabled:** true`) matched
+ *       no sub-key regex, so the key was absent and its DEFAULT applied. For a
+ *       boolean that default is `false`, which reads exactly like a deliberately
+ *       disabled block — no error, in any log. #823 fixed this for the block
+ *       HEADER only (see `block-header.mjs`); this fixes it for the body.
+ *
+ * ZERO IMPORTS beyond the sibling `section-extractor.mjs` skipper, stdlib only —
+ * `tests/lib/config/cycle-guard.test.mjs` forbids any `scripts/lib/config/*.mjs`
+ * from importing `../config.mjs`, and the RAW-PARITY constraint (block-header.mjs
+ * docblock) requires the normalisation to live in the helper each parser calls,
+ * never in a preprocessing step in `config.mjs`.
+ *
+ * DELIBERATE NON-GOAL — fenced code blocks. These parsers are fence-UNAWARE, and
+ * that is a pinned contract, not an oversight. Two tests, cited by NAME because
+ * line numbers rot: `tests/lib/config/frontend-slop-hook.test.mjs` — "parses a
+ * block wrapped in a fenced code block — the parser is fence-unaware", and
+ * `tests/lib/config/dispatcher-autonomy-capture.test.mjs` — "treats a header
+ * inside a fenced code block as PRESENT". Both assert that a ```-fenced block IS
+ * parsed. Teaching this module about
+ * fences would flip ~36 parsers at once and break those pins, so it does not.
+ * Revisit only as its own change, with those two tests as the blast radius.

+ * comment (#1162a).
+ *
+ * Wraps `htmlCommentSkipper()` from `section-extractor.mjs` rather than
+ * re-deriving the state machine, so the block parsers and the Session Config
+ * KV extractor share ONE definition of "this line is commented-out
+ * documentation" by construction. A fresh closure is built per call: the skipper
+ * carries per-document state, and a shared instance would leak an unterminated
+ * comment from one document into the next.
+ *
+ * Inherits the skipper's deliberate ceiling: the opener must be at the START of
+ * a line (`/^\s*<!--/`), so `waves: 5 <!-- note` does NOT swallow the following

+ * every later block silently disappears and each parser falls back to its
+ * defaults — for `config-protection` that is `strict` → `warn`, i.e. a guard
+ * disarmed by a typo, with no error anywhere. When the skipper would still be
+ * inside a comment at EOF, this returns the INPUT lines unfiltered (the
