docs: lens shading resolved from the factory rootfs

The factory image carries a register loader that nothing calls, the app
references an apply script the rootfs does not have, and the OV5648
driver has no regs attribute. No shipped machine applies a per-unit
shading table. BRINGUP item 6 drops the claim; CAMPAIGN-LOG has the
search.

## 2026-08-31: lens shading, resolved from the factory rootfs
Item 6 carried a per-unit lens-shading (OmniVision LENC) table the
factory was said to push into the sensor at every stream start. The
factory v2.6.0-2228 rootfs, dumped and searched, says otherwise:
- `/usr/bin/load_cam_regs.sh` exists: it takes `<lid|head> <regfile>`,
writes each register line into `/sys/bus/i2c/devices/<bus>-0036/regs`,
and remaps OV8858 `0x58xx` addresses to the OV8856's `0x59xx`. Nothing
on the rootfs calls it (no script, no init file, no reference in the
app binary).
- The app binary references `/usr/bin/apply_cam_regs.sh` next to its
camera-selection strings. That script is not on the rootfs.
- Only `ov8856.ko` carries the `regs` attribute (`ov8856_regs_attr_store`)
and an OTP mode; `ov5648.ko` has neither.
- On the bench machine (OV5648) `/data` holds no register file, and
`/data/manufacturing` did not exist before the 2026-08-20 bench tool
created it.
So no shipped machine applies a per-unit shading table: the loader is a
manufacturing-side tool, the app's hook points at a script the image
does not carry, and the 5 MP driver has no way to take one. BRINGUP
item 6 now says so, and the factory-slot session it asked for is not
needed.
