Update STATUS.md with full repository audit and inline diagrams

[krahd]

Motivation

• Bring STATUS.md into current, comprehensive project-status form after a full repository audit and to satisfy the repository's mandatory STATUS upkeep rules.
• Surface hygiene issues and release-blocking clarity (tracked backups/logs, stale config paths, unused constants, stale docs/diagrams) so maintainers can decide remediation before a release freeze.
• Replace external diagram references with inline SVG to keep the status report self-contained and reduce mismatches between docs and code.

Description

• Rewrote STATUS.md to a full project status report that includes project purpose, supported runtime, setup/run instructions, repository inventory, implementation state, docs state, packaging tooling, risks, pending tasks, next steps, and longer-term steps.
• Embedded two inline SVG diagrams (architecture and runtime flow) and updated the setup snippets (added python -m pip install --upgrade pip in venv flows) and environment-variable guidance for CI/CI-like runs.
• Recorded specific audit findings (tracked sdf, src/configs/config.yaml.bak, stale config-llama.yaml paths, unused OLLAMA_HELPER constant, stale roadmap wording, outdated standalone SVGs, large generated Doxygen output) and listed high-priority remediation and validation tasks for maintainers.
• Ensured the required Last updated: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM line appears exactly at the top and bottom and updated both to 2026-05-09 23:25.

Testing

• Attempted python -m pytest -q in this container and it failed during collection due to missing runtime deps in the default interpreter (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'yaml').
• Verified source/launcher byte-compile under a supported interpreter with python3.12 -m compileall -q src run_batllm.py run_game_analyzer.py run_tests.py create_release_bundles.py create_homebrew_formula.py validate_packaging_smoke.py, which completed successfully.
• Ran an automated timestamp-format check to ensure the top and bottom Last updated lines match exactly and are in the required format, which passed.
