The three things this repo took from under libavr's counter are now over
it, and the local copies fold away. The USART release on a software
link's pins is the library's init contract (its guard here becomes a
deletion, byte-identical images held by the gate); the WDRF routing test
is power::peek_reset_cause().watchdog instead of a hand lookup of the
flag's register; the tsb tiers' baud arithmetic is the public solver.
libavr pin advances over those three additions.

A fourth tier answering one question: what does the full TinySafeBoot
feature set cost in C++ under pureboot's rules — no assembly, no
register variables, every pureboot lesson applied. 638 bytes, protocol
suite green: 198 below the idiomatic tier, 126 above the 512 B section,
and above the tiers that pay with the banned mechanisms (526 global
registers, 510 with two asm routines). The gap decomposes into the rent
policy-clean C++ pays for state held across calls — push/pop and
argument threading a global-register protocol avoids — and both
control-flow merges tried measured larger than the split cases they
replaced, while the data merge (one send loop over both memories) paid.
The tiers stay; this one keeps the floor an artifact instead of a claim.
