Add alpha-hardening ADRs and issue plan from pre-release audit.

Lock alpha scope, tracker auth, TOPLOC fraud verification, and deferred multi-tracker money-path work; supersede legacy fraud issues with ADR-0018.

# TAI token: revenue-backed rewards for nodes, USDT/SOL payments for clients
## Status: Accepted (settlement mechanics superseded by ADR-0015)
> **Settlement update (2026-07-04):** Alpha and near-term production use **USDT-direct custodial settlement** with pending-balance forfeiture penalties (ADR-0015). TAI emission, backing-price buyback, and stake deposits described below remain the **roadmap tokenomics** — not the live payment path. When TAI ships, it will mint from accumulated protocol cut; this ADR's incentive structure still governs long-term design.
## Core principle
Nodes must get paid reliably for inference work. This is the primary growth engine. All tokenomics decisions serve this goal first. The model is intentionally simple and sound — parameters can be tweaked later, but the structure must have no fatal flaws from day one.
