Subject: Add AAAI-27 paper scaffolding

main.tex (AuthorKit 27 wrapper), preview.tex (kit-free preview build),
shared defs. body.tex is a draft to be REWRITTEN from the evidence
ledger (notes/36): it omits most of the validation chain and cites the
retired closed-form number; do not treat its content as authoritative.

+% =====================================================================
+% AAAI AuthorKit 27 format.
+%
+% TO COMPILE: download the AuthorKit from https://aaai.org/authorkit27/ ,
+% place aaai27.sty (and aaai27.bst if you switch to a .bib) next to this
+% file, then run:   pdflatex main ; pdflatex main     (or: tectonic main)
+%
+% aaai27.sty is distributed only inside the AuthorKit zip (not on CTAN),
+% so it is not bundled here. The body lives in body.tex and is shared with
+% preview.tex (a generic wrapper that compiles WITHOUT the kit, for a quick
+% look: tectonic preview.tex).
+% Figure: python scripts/closed_form_soft_ramp.py
