Fixed - ld/profile: find_by_drive_id no longer mis-binds a drive whose reported product_id is real but uncatalogued to a sibling model's profile (and its wrong LibreDrive microcode); the product-id-blind loose match is gated on an empty id. Docs / CI - Third-party NOTICE for the LibreDrive microcode bundled in profiles.json; cargo-deny gate (#15) and audience-based comment-guard (#17).

ld — the drive bus-unlock module
A drive bus-unlock module for freemkv-unlock.
freemkv-unlock defines the generic Unlocker contract; this module is one
implementation of it. It recognizes a bundled catalog of supported drives
(profiles.json) and, for a matching drive, lifts the drive-level
bus-encryption barrier so the drive serves readable sectors. Content-key
decryption is a separate concern, handled by the consumer.
Clients never name this module directly —
libfreemkv dispatches through
freemkv_unlock::all_unlockers(), and this module answers unlock_features() /
unlock_bus() when the drive identity is one it supports.
Scope: non-persistent unlock only
This module performs only the non-persistent unlock — the access state it sets up lives in drive RAM and is gone on power cycle. The one-time, permanent drive preparation is the drive owner's own manual step and is never automated here.
