chore: add the Google Search Console verification file - #14

docs/public/google50fd13fe6cb8e96f.html, served from the site root as Search Console requires. The file method rather than DNS because js.org owns the DNS for the subdomain, so a Domain property is not available — only a URL-prefix property verified by file or meta tag. docs/DEPLOYING.md now documents what docs/public/ is for, and warns that Search Console silently unverifies a property when its proof 404s. Losing search data with no visible cause is the kind of thing that goes unnoticed for months. Also caught while doing it: a note written as docs/public/README.md rendered as a real page at /public/README and entered the sitemap. Markdown anywhere under docs/ is page source, subdirectory or not — so a private note about the build was about to be submitted to Google. The note moved into DEPLOYING.md, which srcExclude keeps unpublished, and the warning is written down there.
