* v0.5.7: fix vt verify content check — expect BLANK (0x70020), not zerosalmonik2026-08-031-0/+204
The pre-verify 0x70020 'mystery' was a debug artifact, not corruption: BLANK = {ch:32, fg:7, bg:0} = raw 0x70020, and vec![BLANK; n] fills both grids with it at init. The old check compared cells against 0 and its probe loop break-ed on the first non-zero cell, so probes 1-3 stayed at their zero-initialized slots — c=[0x70020,0,0,0] was bogus on every healthy boot. A full-grid dump proves QEMU grids are 100% BLANK at shell entry (nz=3700 blank=3700). Fix: probes compare against blank_raw (0x70020), record all four values (no early break), probe both cells and rendered, and add a full-grid nz/blank summary line. The OptiPlex firmware 0x00AAAAAA scrub remains cleanly distinguishable (scrub != blank). Markers: the shell banner occupies grid rows 0-1 and the prompt row 2 (proven by screendump), and a stale crash.log replays at rows 2+, so the shadow and vt markers moved to the bottom of the screen via the new gop::text_rows()/bottom_row(off) helpers instead of rows 1-2. QEMU verified: verify: ok every boot; test-msg + test-fault PASS; debug and release builds 0 warnings.
