Closes the v0.9.0 release loop on top of Phase 9a-Newton + Phase 8b-Lite:
* CHANGELOG.md (NEW) — Keep-A-Changelog format, with v0.9.0 entry
detailing all Phase 9a / 9b / 8b-Lite contents and the doc-audit
corrections that landed via PR #10.
* CITATION.cff — version 0.7.0 → 0.9.0, date 2026-05-18 → 2026-05-22.
* Stale HDS-port stubs removed (13 GTEST_SKIPs total):
- code/tests/test_spherical_functional.cpp
- code/tests/test_hyper_ideal_functional.cpp
- code/tests/test_hyper_ideal_hyperelliptic_utility.cpp
These referenced a "HDS port (Phase 4)" that never happened —
CoHDS was intentionally replaced by CGAL::Surface_mesh, and the
functional tests live in code/tests/cgal/test_*_functional.cpp.
* Test-count updates everywhere:
- Non-CGAL 36 → 23 (drop = 13 deleted stubs)
- CGAL 176 → 227
- Total 212 → 250 (+38 net, 0 skipped)

README.md: reduced from 703 to ~75 lines — what/why, status, quick
start, minimal usage example, navigation table to doc/ files.
doc/architecture/overall_pipeline.md: trimmed — roadmap, extension
points, declarative pipeline YAML, and references sections removed
(each now has its own dedicated file). Replaced with a link table.
New files:
doc/getting-started.md — build modes, single-test invocation, CLI
doc/api/pipeline.md — full pipeline API with code for all 3 geometries
doc/api/extending.md — new functionals, geometry modes, Java porting guide
doc/api/contracts.md — processing unit preconditions/provides table
doc/api/cgal-package.md — Phase 8 CGAL package design + YAML pipeline (TODO)
doc/math/geometry-modes.md — Euclidean/Spherical/HyperIdeal comparison
doc/math/references.md — all papers by module
doc/roadmap/phases.md — Phases 1–10 with porting/research boundary
doc/roadmap/java-parity.md — Java vs C++ feature parity table
doc/contributing.md — language policy, test standards, release flow
