_parse_tests_verdict now accepts three equal-rank machine-readable
frontmatter fields in 13-test-report.md — result: (canonical tester
output), verdict: and status: (legacy/enduro-trails). Any one non-empty
field suffices; a negative token in any field stays authoritative.
Fixes the producer/consumer contract mismatch where the tester emits
`result: PASS` (per .openclaw/agents/tester.md) but the gate only read
verdict:/status:, causing a testing->development rollback loop until
MAX_DEVELOPER_RETRIES (observed on ORCH-17). Token sets frozen and gate
signature/QG_CHECKS unchanged for full backward compatibility.
