* CIP-XXXX? | Utilization-Scaled Pledge Bonus

Adds a new CIP proposing that the pledge bonus in the Reward Sharing
Scheme be multiplied by pool utilization u = min(S, S_sat) / S_sat.

The change removes the dilution regime that currently punishes
delegators for arriving at high-pledge pools (per-delegator ROA
becomes monotonically increasing in pool stake), strengthens Sybil
resistance at the formula level (splitting an MPO's pledge across N
pools reduces total bonus by ~1/N), and leaves a_0 untouched so the
existing delegator-preference deterrent continues to operate.

Folder contents:
- README.md - the CIP itself.
- CIP_UTILIZATION_SCALED_PLEDGE_BONUS.html - interactive simulator
  with four guided tutorials (math explainer, stakeholder tour, MPO
  tour, free exploration). Also published at
  https://johnshearing.github.io/pool_ranger/CIP_UTILIZATION_SCALED_PLEDGE_BONUS.html
- utilization_scaled_pledge_bonus.md - full written derivation,
  numerical anchors, and risk analysis.

* CIP-XXXX? | Address review: consolidate to single Markdown file

Per rphair's review on PR #1193:

- Fold utilization_scaled_pledge_bonus.md into README.md as
  Appendix A (Detailed Derivation and Worked Examples). Drop the
  sections that duplicated the body; keep the deeper problem
  statement, Sybil math, worked numerical example, extended
  stakeholder analysis, and expanded risks table.
- Remove CIP_UTILIZATION_SCALED_PLEDGE_BONUS.html from the CIP
  folder. The simulator stays on the author's repository and is
  linked once from the Rationale and once from References.
- Trim the interactive-simulator callout from the Abstract.
- Capitalize "Why" and "How" in the Motivation and Rationale
  section headings.
- Fix front-matter Discussions URL (pull/? -> pull/1193).
- Define Pool Ranger with a link on first reference; bare name
  thereafter.
- Add GitHub hyperlinks for CIP-0001, CIP-0050, CIP-0084,
  CIP-1694 in the Comparison table and References. Link the RSS
  paper to its IACR preprint.
- Expand the Notation subsection under Specification to absorb
  F, m, p, and A with current mainnet values, in lieu of a
  separate Glossary appendix.
- Generalize the Appendix's cooperative-bargaining discussion
  to "cooperatives" as a class, with Pool Ranger cited as an
  example where it grounds an abstract claim.

* CIP-XXXX? | Fix stale references to deleted supporting files

Replace the Motivation pointer to the now-deleted
utilization_scaled_pledge_bonus.md and CIP_UTILIZATION_SCALED_PLEDGE_BONUS.html
with a link to Appendix A and the live simulator. Missed in the
prior consolidation commit.

* CIP-0187 | Drop letter from Appendix heading & fix incoming links

Rename "Appendix A" to "Appendix" (only one appendix, so the letter
violates outline convention and makes anchors fragile), update the two
incoming links to the new anchor, and renumber subsections A.1-A.5 to
1-5 for consistency. Addresses reviewer feedback on PR #1193.

* CIP-0187 | Use exact 'Appendix' section heading to pass validation

The validator matches the full H2 heading text against the allowed
section names, so the descriptive title made it an "Unknown section".
Rename the heading to exactly "## Appendix" and point the two incoming
links at #appendix. The descriptive phrasing already lives in the
appendix intro sentence. Addresses rphair's review on PR #1193.

* Reworked as standalone metadata standard

Key updates:

Reworked the structure to no longer depend on the governance Info Action, surveys can now exist independently.

Added an optional referenceAction field (transactionId, actionIndex) to link a survey to a governance action when relevant.

Updated rationale, examples, and CDDL schema to align with the new standalone approach.

This version aims to make the standard simpler, cheaper to use, and more flexible, while still allowing contextual linkage to governance actions when desired.

* Update survey CIP to use metadata label 0017 and clean up abstract

Update the survey CIP to use metadata label 0017 and revise the abstract accordingly. All references to metadata label 674 have been replaced with 0017 throughout the specification, including in surveyDetails, surveyResponse, examples, and explorer guidance. Incorrect references to CIP-0068 “via 674” and any implied dependency on CIP-20 have been removed. The abstract has been updated to clarify that surveys use a dedicated metadata label, and a rationale has been added explaining the choice of 0017, referencing the Roman census of 17 BC as an early example of structured population data collection. No other structural or semantic changes have been made. Using a dedicated metadata label avoids congestion in CIP-20’s reserved space and provides a clear, unambiguous channel for survey metadata.

refactor(scripts): rename conway_fast/slow testnets to local_fast/slow

The testnet names no longer hardcode the Conway era; descriptions now
refer to a generic target era so the names stay valid across eras.
