docs(adr): add ADR-0008 — declarative manifest + on-disk layout conventions

Discharge the layout question ADR-0007 deferred. Fix the engineering-file
on-disk arrangement so the checker recovers lesson order/membership without
evaluating typst:

- manifest.toml at root: [project] + [info] + ordered [[parts]] (kind+path) +
  [targets.*]. Array order IS lesson order (ADR-0005). Subsumes the samples'
  project.toml/info.toml and replaces main.typ's `#let parts`.
- element.toml per element folder: explicit kind + scalar fields (self-describing,
  parent-dir grouping not load-bearing).
- content fields are convention-named <field>.typ siblings; the kind's JSON Schema
  (ADR-0006) is the source of truth for which .typ files must exist. Drops the
  samples' per-element main.typ wiring (now generated, not hand-authored).

Surfaced gaps (deferred): per-file render override (ADR-0005 says the matrix is
overridable in-file; MVP keeps rules in the render layer, no override), 题库
on-disk layout, manifest richness (per-part metadata, sectioning).

# ADR 0008: Engineering-File Layout — Declarative Manifest + Element Descriptors
## Status
Accepted — for the layout conventions below. Some sub-decisions are deferred;
see *Open Questions / Deferred*.
Discharges the layout question ADR-0007 left open. ADR-0007 fixed that the
engineering file is a real directory tree but explicitly deferred the concrete
layout: the manifest (name, location, contents), how element instances are
arranged and how their **order** (ADR-0005's `Lesson` is an ordered sequence) is
encoded, and how rich-content `.typ` files are named. This ADR fixes those.
## Context
Two real sample engineering files exist (TH-141, TH-144). They encode the lesson
as a typst file `main.typ` containing `#import`s of each element's `main.typ`
plus a `#let parts = (("segment", 模块), ("lemma", 模块), …)` ordered tuple list.
Each element is a folder under a per-kind directory (`segments/`, `examples/`,
`lemmas/`, `sop/`); its fields are typst source files (`textbook.typ`,
`problem.typ`/`solution.typ`, `stmt.typ`/`proof.typ`, `sop.typ`) wired up by the
element's own `main.typ` via `#let f = include "f.typ"`.
That embryo has one property in tension with the contract: **the ordering
manifest is itself a typst script**. ADR-0005 rejected typst as the
definition/scripting language (its typing is too weak), and ADR-0006 moved the
kind schema off typst onto declarative JSON Schema. A checker that had to *parse
typst* to recover the lesson's element order would re-introduce exactly the
dependency those ADRs removed: the order — a first-class part of the `Lesson`
contract — would be locked inside an evaluated typst program.
## Decision
### The lesson manifest is declarative, not a typst script
The lesson's order and membership live in a **declarative `manifest.toml`** at
the engineering-file root, read directly by the checker. TOML is chosen for
consistency with the samples' existing `project.toml` / `info.toml` /
`meta.toml`. It subsumes `project.toml` and `info.toml`. Shape:
```toml
[project]
id = "…" # stable project id
name = "…" # folder/display name
[info] # passed through to render targets verbatim
title = "…"
author = "…"
[[parts]] # ORDER OF THIS ARRAY IS THE LESSON ORDER (ADR-0005)
kind = "segment" # one of the known kinds (ADR-0006 / stdlib set)
path = "segments/开场对照导言" # element folder, relative to root
# … one [[parts]] block per element, in order …
[targets.student] # which export targets exist for this lesson
[targets.teacher]
```
The checker reads `parts` for order and membership. It **must not** parse typst
to recover ordering — the declarative array is the single source of truth. The
sample's `main.typ` `#let parts` is **replaced** by this; any typst entrypoint
that imports elements in order is a *generated build artifact* derived from the
manifest (see ADR-0007's note that the on-disk encoding of `Lesson` is separate
from "it's a tree"), never the canonical order.
### An element folder is self-describing via `element.toml`
Each element folder carries an **`element.toml`** declaring its kind and its
**scalar** fields (per the kind's JSON Schema, ADR-0006):
```toml
kind = "example"
source = "41 届物理竞赛复赛第三大题(1)" # a scalar field of the example kind
```
`kind` is explicit in the descriptor (not inferred from the parent directory
name) so a folder is self-describing and the `segments/`-vs-`lemmas/` directory
grouping is a human convenience, not load-bearing for the checker.
### `content` fields are convention-named `.typ` siblings
A kind's schema (ADR-0006) marks some fields as the `content` extension type.
For each such field `F`, its value is the typst source file **`F.typ`** in the
element folder. The schema — not `element.toml`, not a per-element `main.typ`
is the source of truth for *which* `.typ` files must exist. Concretely for the
MVP kind set: `segment``textbook.typ`; `example``problem.typ`,
`solution.typ`; `lemma``stmt.typ`, `proof.typ`; `sop``sop.typ`. This
**drops the samples' per-element `main.typ`** (`#let textbook = include …`):
that field-to-file wiring is now implied by the schema + naming convention and
materialized by the generated driver, not hand-authored.
A `content` field's denotation remains ADR-0006's: the **module body content**
of `F.typ`, not its `#let` exports. The file sits at a real relative path
(ADR-0007), so its spans resolve and its relative imports anchor within the tree
(ADR-0006 import boundary).
## Consequences
- The checker recovers the full ordered lesson from `manifest.toml` + each
`element.toml` without evaluating any typst — order and membership are plain
data, diffable and greppable.
- A typst driver entrypoint (static `#import`s + the render call) becomes a
*generated artifact* the renderer produces from the manifest per target; it is
never the canonical lesson and is not hand-edited.
- Element folders lose their per-element `main.typ`; `element.toml` + the schema's
content-file convention replace it. Migrating the samples is a mechanical
rewrite (the migration is part of the MVP).
- `path` being a real relative folder makes "the lesson references element X"
inspectable on disk; a dangling `path` is a structural error the checker can
point at.
## Open Questions / Deferred
- **Per-file render override.** ADR-0005 says the (kind × target) render matrix
lives *in* the engineering file with framework **defaults** the file may
**override**. This ADR's `[targets.*]` only *declares which targets exist*; the
MVP keeps the render rules entirely in the framework render layer with **no
per-file override**. Whether/how a lesson overrides a render rule (a block in
`manifest.toml`? a per-target file?) is deferred until a real override need
appears. This is a known, surfaced gap against ADR-0005, not an oversight.
- **Question bank (题库) on disk.** TH-144 has a `题目/` tree of problem/answer
pairs outside `parts`. Its layout and its element relationship (ADR-0005
Deferred: reference vs inline) stay open; out of MVP scope.
- **Manifest richness.** Per-part metadata, grouping/sectioning (TH-144's A/B/C
structure is only in folder names today), and target-specific options on a part
are not modeled here; add when needed rather than guessing now.
- **stdlib kind set & schema dialect** remain as ADR-0006 left them; this ADR
only fixes the on-disk *arrangement*, not the schemas themselves.
