The one-shot that seeded news_realm_firsts filtered on `abandoned = 0`, and
`abandoned` does not mean anybody gave up: abandonZoneRunByID exists to retire a
run whose boss is already dead when the expedition travels onward, which is how
30 of prod's 32 boss kills are stored. So the ledger holds 6 zones where the run
history knows 9, and it dates every row to the minute the job ran rather than to
the clear.
The ledger is what claimRealmFirst tiers live dispatches against, so each missed
zone is a spurious PRIORITY "realm first" waiting to fire the next time somebody
clears it, months late.
Fix the shared query, and add a re-seed (not a re-run) under its own job name: it
writes the ledger, backdated to the real earliest clear, and emits nothing at
all. It runs regardless of the news switches, because a ledger that is right only
while emission is on mis-tiers the first dispatch after somebody flips it. Kept
in place afterwards as an ordinary bootstrap for fresh deploys.
