Correct the #122 claim this document got wrong from one green run

The ConversionForegroundType note asserted that #122's wedge no longer
kills the API 33 leg, on the evidence of a single run. The PR carrying
this document then wedged that exact leg: 23m08s, "wedged: yes --
gradle was killed after 1200s and never returned", failed: unknown.

Corrected to what the runs actually show: intermittent, not resolved --
five of the last six completed legs passed in ~7 minutes. And the
distinction the wedge row exists to draw is now stated, because it is
what keeps #88's reasoning intact: received: 60 means all sixty tests
still reported, so the API 33 regime was exercised; it is the failed
count that reads "unknown", so the leg could not have reported a break.

Also names what that changes -- a @Config(sdk = 33/34) JVM test is
worth three lines as insurance against a leg that cannot be trusted to
go red, which is a different and much smaller claim than the uncovered
behaviour this first looked like.

Its API 33 and 34 arms are cold on the JVM, but issue **#88** already established that the class is
covered by `ConversionWorkerTest.foregroundTypeMatchesTheRunningApiLevel` across the CI matrix, and
that its 0% is the `testDebugUnitTest`-only measurement boundary. The one premise worth re-checking
was whether the 33/34 legs still complete, given #122's wedge — they do: the API 33 leg on the most
recent `status_check` run reports **expected 60, received 60, failed 0, completed cleanly: yes**,
with no `wedged:` row. Recorded because that check is the whole reason this is not a ticket.

The premise worth re-checking was whether the 33/34 legs still complete, given #122's wedge.
**They mostly do, and #122 is not resolved** — this entry said "they do" on first writing, from a
single green run, and the PR carrying this very document proved that wrong:
| run | API 33 leg | shape |
|---|---|---|
| `32933262839` (#127) | success, 7m16s | `expected 60, received 60, failed 0, completed cleanly: yes` |
| `33033036857` (PR #131, docs-only) | **failure, 23m08s** | `expected 60, received 60, failed unknown, wedged: yes — gradle killed after 1200s` |
Five of the last six completed API 33 legs passed in about seven minutes, so the wedge is
intermittent rather than systematic. **What it costs is the verdict, not the execution**: `received:
60` on the wedged run means all sixty tests still reported, so the API 33 regime *was* exercised —
but `failed:` reads `unknown`, so that leg could not have told anyone if it had broken.
That is why this stays a note and not a ticket, and also why it is not simply deleted: #88's
reasoning holds, but the leg it rests on cannot be relied on to report a failure. A
`@Config(sdk = 33)` / `@Config(sdk = 34)` JVM test would pin all three arms deterministically in one
run for about three lines. Small, and worth doing the next time this file is opened — but it is
insurance against a flaky leg, not the uncovered behaviour it first looked like.
**The Compose screens' branch coverage.** `ConverterScreenKt` reports 110 of 200 branches missed and
`JoinScreenKt` 60 of 82, which looks alarming and is not a signal: the Compose compiler synthesises
