review: the port's findings — the version map speaks v7, costs told true

The in-file version window now carries the v7 line its own comment
claimed to hold; the GPIOR note counts words, not instructions; the
USART-release cost and citation match the silicon (two bytes on the
classics, §20.6.3); and the 512-byte claim reads as the slot bound it
is. The libavr pin advances over the review pass — images byte-identical.

not the port register — owns the TX pin, and a loader entered from an
application that left it enabled would receive and obey while answering nothing

`SERIAL autobaud` takes neither: the loader **measures** the host's bit timing
at run time, so `CLOCK` and `BAUD` are not build parameters there and one
