Where retired entries go.

docs/release-runbook.md says never to delete a feature entry: either strike its heading through and set status: retired, or move the whole entry here and leave a one-line stub in the feature list pointing at it. Heavy refactors move the old text here too.

This file is append-only and unordered. It is not a changelog and nothing reads it in sequence; it exists so that a question about why something was removed has an answer that is still in the tree, rather than only in a squashed commit message.

An entry keeps the key block it had when it was live, plus the reason it was retired and what replaced it.

It is empty because nothing has been retired yet. The runbook named it before it existed, which is the documentation form of a capability declared and not delivered; TestEveryDocumentationLinkResolves in internal/defaults is what noticed, and what will notice the next one.
