RAG reranker + manifest bucket fix — quality improvements from eval

RAG pipeline now includes a cross-encoder rerank step between retrieval
and generation. The LLM re-sorts top-K results by relevance before
they become context. Falls back to original order if model output is
unparseable (~5% with 7B models). Also improved the generation prompt
to be domain-aware ("staffing database") and request specific citations.

Fixed 4 catalog manifests with bucket="data" (pre-federation leftover)
that poisoned the entire DataFusion query context on startup. The
"users", "lab_trials", "meta_runs", and "new_candidates" datasets
now correctly reference bucket="primary". This bug was surfaced by
the quality evaluation pipeline — wouldn't have been found by
structural tests alone.
