`checks.yml` runs `cargo fmt --check`, and it has been failing since the round-1
audit fixes: I gated those on `cargo build` and `cargo clippy` but never ran fmt,
so three files drifted then and eight more this round. Pure formatting — no
behaviour change; clippy stays at zero and all 70 backend tests still pass.
Worth noting for next time: clippy passing is not evidence fmt does.
