Summary
User impact
PatchHive now fails visibly instead of silently replacing unreadable, newer, full, denied, or externally changed browser storage. A second tab that writes a newer or corrupt payload locks the first tab before normal save/import/reset; the first tab can back up its in-memory work and reload the stored value.
Web Storage has no atomic compare-and-swap operation. The exact re-read plus storage-event lock narrows the race window but does not claim strong multi-writer consistency.

Part of #13.
External usability evidence remains N=0 trials. This PR does not close the evidence issue or claim external adoption.
