Stop draft PDFs claiming to be ratified - #4

Conversation
The title page hardcoded "Ratified <date>" for every build, so the draft pre-release published minutes ago opened with "Ratified 2026-08-21" while the notice at the head of all seven documents it contains says the opposite, its page footers say "draft", and its release notes say in bold that nothing has been ratified. The one line a reader sees first was the one line that lied. Only a date tag may say ratified. Everything else is now dated "Draft of <date>. Not ratified." The wording is deliberately plain: an em-dash is dropped somewhere between the shell and the LaTeX template, which is worth knowing before someone reaches for one in metadata again.
