Multisite stranding guard [3/4]: Say why a network-active standalone was left active

[d4mation]

What: Add a dedicated stranding notice — Writer::queue_stranding_notice() (declared on Writer_Interface), Sub_Plugin::get_stranding_notice_message(), the stranding_notice_message filter, and the Renderer severity — with no production caller yet.

Usage:

add_filter( 'give/plugin_absorber/stranding_notice_message', static fn( $msg ) => __( '…', 'give' ) );

Why this way:

A distinct type, not the conflict notice reworded. The conflict notice tells the user they "can safely deactivate the standalone" — the exact opposite of the stranding case, where deactivating it network-wide is what would strand sites. So it earns its own type, rendered notice-warning (the site works; this is a superadmin action item, not an error).

Self-contained message, no config key. Modeled on get_dependency_notice_message(): a generic default plus its own read-time filter, so MESSAGE_KEYS, STRING_KEYS and the registration validation are all untouched. The filter is the translation seam, fired when the message is asked for rather than while the config array is built.

Adding a queue_* method is a Writer_Interface change. A host binding its own writer must implement it; called out here rather than discovered at runtime. No production caller until the next PR wires it into the resolver.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds multisite stranding notices for network-active standalone plugins. It adds message filtering, notice queueing, warning rendering, tests, and documentation.

Changes

Stranding notice

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Stranding message generation src/Sub_Plugin.php, tests/unit/SubPluginTest.php, docs/filters.md	Sub_Plugin generates a default stranding message, applies stranding_notice_message, and converts invalid filter results to an empty string. Tests cover defaults and overrides.
Notice queueing and rendering src/Notices/Contracts/Writer_Interface.php, src/Notices/Writer.php, src/Notices/Renderer.php, tests/_support/Spy_Writer.php, tests/unit/Notices/*	The notice writer exposes the stranding type and queues its message. The renderer maps it to notice-warning. Tests cover queueing and severity.
Notice behavior documentation CLAUDE.md, docs/notices.md	Documentation describes stranding conditions, recurrence, filtering, notice types, and severity classes.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to cd4de

The PR adds the stranding-notice API without wiring it into production, while documentation describes the notice as already active. This could mislead maintainers or integrators, so the PR is mergeable with explicit follow-up to correct the documentation or add the caller.
