A merge by a record manager now reads as its own sentence in the owner's
activity feed, the merged toast goes through the written-outcome toast,
and the export test doubles carry the alias and merge tables.
The merge moves every reading and every reader shows one series, a dry run
answers the same and writes nothing, conversions keep the printed value,
an unconvertible source refuses the whole merge, a chosen spelling resolves
on the next scan and on manual entry, and aliases and the merge ledger
survive both kinds of backup. The merge route joins the record-scoped
manage inventory with its driver.
