M7: preserve overlapping text when dragging paragraphs (#594) (#1052)

* M7 #594: preserve ordinary paragraph drags (source-only GGEO candidate) [skip ci]

Route body drags through source-preserving MoveObjects, bind gestures to
the document generation, and keep added-content input ownership with
the Edit panel open or closed. Add nine real-shell source regressions.

Source-only transfer to the owner's fork, explicitly authorized before
validation. Independently source-reviewed; formatting, builds, tests,
rendering and all gates remain pending on ggeo-ai02. No upstream PR.

AI-assisted with OpenAI.

* M7 #594: record validated ordinary paragraph drags

Format the source-reviewed candidate and record successful GGEO validation:
focused UI/engine tests, exact-base source loss, native drag/history/save/reopen,
independent Poppler checks, and all eight repository CI gates.

* M7: use generic validation wording

* Tests: pin the clock where two saves or combines are compared byte for byte
