Phase 0.9 future observation approval template

Status: TEMPLATE ONLY — NOT AUTHORIZED.

This template never grants permission. It is bound only to a possible future observation action and cannot authorize backup creation, staging, switch, installation, lifecycle, execution, autoload, retry, graphics or RetroArch. Every request-specific value is deliberately empty.
