driver.collapse_best built its evaluator with _fitness_for's default
collapse_insearch=True, so collapse_finish's base_fails/cand_fails were
both measured through score_with_fails' own auto-collapse pass -- base
silently equalled collapsed on 5/5 probed files, making the "keep only
if fails don't increase" safety guard vacuous and understating 94g's
real effect in logs. fitness.collapse_finish now forces canonical
(collapse_insearch=False) scoring for its own measurement regardless of
self's config; collapse_best now builds its evaluator canonically too
(matching what homemaker-fitness reports for the written .dom) and
threads max_share/conn_grade through. Same-family fix in
search_annealed's no-polish-budget rescore branch, which silently
defaulted to collapse_insearch=True via _evaluate's default.
