docs(merge-queue): fix accuracy drift and style across the section

[jd]

First docs-health audit pass over all merge-queue pages. Accuracy fixes
verified against the config JSON schema, the CLI schema, and the engine:

• github-rulesets: add the missing none value of
  branch_protection_injection_mode (schema enum queue|merge|none)
• scopes: remove the wrong "set merge_queue_scope to null to
  disable" claim (schema types it non-nullable)
• batches: "split into two by default" was stale; the engine splits a
  failed batch into max(2, max_parallel_checks) parts
• queue-modes: isolated-mode batching without scopes fills by
  changed-directory similarity, not pure arrival order; fast-forward
  restriction list was missing squash as an allowed method
• lifecycle: reference auto_merge_conditions instead of the deprecated
  auto_merge
• pause: --reason is required, not optional (CLI schema); fix the broken
  freeze anchor to /merge-protections/freeze
• monitoring: match the dashboard UI text ("Past 3 months")
• rules and merge-strategies: convert expired dated deprecation notices
  (autoqueue, fork-rebase) to dateless markers per the repo rule

Plus a conservative style pass per the proofread rubrics: banned words,
~50 prose em dashes, throat-clearing intros, promotional filler, and
grammar fixes. Frontmatter descriptions with banned words or em dashes
were also cleaned (quoted where a colon required it).

Part of the first manual docs-health audit (MRGFY-8212).
