Jakob Wennberg d3409183c0 fix(categorize): make confidence honest — backing-driven, not the model's word (#1791)
A backtest against real bookings (scripts/backtest-categorize.ts, read-only)
showed the selector reporting 0.95 on pure category guesses, so "säker" was a
lie: high-confidence picks were only ~52% accurate.

Confidence is now driven by DETERMINISTIC BACKING — the confidence of a
candidate that independently points at the chosen account — not the model's
verbalized confidence (which the backtest showed is ~always "high"):
- a BACKED pick takes the candidate's confidence, reduced only when the model
  itself is unsure;
- an UNBACKED pick (a category guess no candidate agreed with) is capped at 0.7,
  below the säker band (0.8) — a guess is never "säker", however sure the model
  claims to be.

Re-running the backtest: säker (conf ≥0.8) accuracy 52% → 73%, and it now fires
only on template-backed picks. Still not auto-book-grade (want ~95%), so
auto-book stays off until isotonic calibration on real approvals — but the band
is now honest, which is what makes the whole UX trustworthy.

Also adds the read-only backtest harness so we can re-measure after any change.
37 categorize tests green; lint + guards clean.

/**
* Tier 2 of the auto-booking cascade: the provider-agnostic account SELECTOR.
*
* Given a transaction, its underlag (extracted receipt/invoice text), and the
* ranked candidate accounts the deterministic engine already retrieved (Tier 1:
* counterparty templates, rules, history), the model reasons and then CHOOSES,
* from a CLOSED set of options:
* - one of the retrieved candidate accounts (the "known" path), or
* - one of the standard business categories (the "novel" path — a first-time
* vendor with no candidate), which maps deterministically to a BAS account, or
* - `needs_review` when nothing fits (routed to a human, never auto-applied).
*
* Why a selector and not a free-form categorizer (2026 best practice, see the
* architecture doc): the model picking from a closed enum can't invent an
* account, runs on any provider (Bedrock or a local model), and is cheap
* because the taxonomy is a stable, cacheable prefix. The account + VAT
* derivation stays deterministic and validated: the model chooses the category,
* code resolves the numbers.
*
* Confidence never trusts the model's own word alone: it combines the model's
* stated confidence with SELF-CONSISTENCY (sampling the choice N times and
* measuring agreement) and, when a known candidate is chosen, that candidate's
* deterministic confidence. The combined score is what a later calibration step
* turns into an auto-book / suggest / review gate.
