fix(migration): de-duplicate EFECTIVO_BACKUP against EFECTIVO

The reconciliation pass ruled EFECTIVO and EFECTIVO_BACKUP "near-disjoint
ledgers" and the transform loaded both in full. That verdict was a bug, not
a finding.

reconcile.py compared the business key (cl, fecha, monto, conepto) as raw
strings, on the stated premise that "every table went through the same
mdb-export path, so identical source values serialize identically". They
don't: mdb-export formats a numeric column from its Access column type, so
the same amount is emitted as `5000` from one table and `27000.0000` from
the other. No two rows could ever match on `monto`, which is why the pass
reported 2 overlapping rows.

Canonicalizing numeric key columns first shows 12386 of EFECTIVO_BACKUP's
12387 rows already exist verbatim in EFECTIVO — same customer, same
timestamp to the second, same amount, same concept text — leaving exactly
one genuinely new row. The ledger was carrying 12386 duplicated payments,
roughly doubling every customer's historical receipt total.

- reconcile.py: add canon(), which parses a key column to a number when
  nearly every populated cell parses and re-emits it at fixed precision.
  Applied in keyset() and in the folio-conflict comparison. Rewrite the
  group-1 verdict and the module docstring's method note.
- transform_transactions.py: share a business-key `seen` set between the
  two efectivo_like() calls. EFECTIVO loads first and wins collisions.
  De-dup on the business key, never on folio — folio is per-table
  sequential and collides on 12204 different payments.
- Regenerate RECONCILIATION.md. Groups 2 and 3 re-checked under the fix;
  their verdicts are unchanged.

Ledger after re-running run_all.py --env dev: 45861 -> 33475 rows.

_Migration plan step 2. Generated by `reconcile.py` from staged Parquet (`output/stg_utilities`). Regenerate: `./.venv/bin/python reconcile.py > RECONCILIATION.md`._
**Headline:** none of the three suspected "duplicate" groups are what the plan assumed. They are disjoint historical/period data or a mislabeled batch — see each group's decided rule.
**Headline:** `EFECTIVO_BACKUP` *is* a duplicate of `EFECTIVO` and must not be double-loaded; the billing tables are genuinely disjoint period runs; `COBRO3` is a mislabeled charge batch, not a customer master. See each group's decided rule.
## 1. Cash ledger — `EFECTIVO` vs `EFECTIVO_BACKUP`
- `EFECTIVO`: 13697 rows. `EFECTIVO_BACKUP`: 12387 rows.
- `folio` is per-table sequential: 13697 distinct in EFECTIVO (= row count), 12369 in BACKUP. 12363 folio *numbers* appear in both.
- **But of those 12363 shared folio numbers, 12363 carry a *different* transaction** (differ on ['cl', 'fecha', 'monto', 'conepto']). → `folio` collides; it is NOT a stable cross-table id.
- On the real business key `['cl', 'fecha', 'monto', 'conepto']`: **2 rows in both**, 13663 only in EFECTIVO, 12385 only in BACKUP.
- Date ranges are different eras: BACKUP is dominated by 20172022 records, EFECTIVO by recent ones.
- **But of those 12363 shared folio numbers, 12204 carry a *different* transaction** (differ on ['cl', 'fecha', 'monto', 'conepto']). → `folio` collides; it is NOT a stable cross-table id, and it cannot be the de-dup key.
- On the real business key `['cl', 'fecha', 'monto', 'conepto']`, canonicalized: **12386 rows in both**, 1279 only in EFECTIVO, 1 only in BACKUP — i.e. all but 1 of BACKUP's 12387 rows already exist verbatim in EFECTIVO, same customer, same timestamp to the second, same amount, same concept text.
- Yearly row counts track each other almost exactly from 2006 to 2023 (e.g. 2017: 1036 vs 994), which is what a stale copy looks like — not two ledgers covering different eras.
**Decided rule:** the two tables are **near-disjoint ledgers**, not a live/backup duplicate pair (only 2 shared payments out of ~13k+12k). Migrate **both** into `transactions`, each row keyed internally by `(legacy_source_table, folio)` provenance — do **not** de-dup on `folio` (it collides) and do **not** drop BACKUP (it holds ~12k older payments absent from EFECTIVO). The 2 business-key matches are the only possible double-counts and should be spot-checked, but at that volume they don't threaten balance integrity.
**Decided rule (corrected):** `EFECTIVO_BACKUP` is a **stale backup copy of `EFECTIVO`**, not an independent ledger. Load `EFECTIVO` in full, and load from `EFECTIVO_BACKUP` only the rows whose canonicalized business key is absent from `EFECTIVO` (1 row(s)). Loading both in full double-counts 12386 payments and doubles nearly every customer's historical receipt total, which makes any statement or balance view wrong. De-dup on the business key, **not** on `folio` (it collides).
> This reverses the original verdict in this report, which read `{b}` as 2. That number came from string-comparing `monto`, which `mdb-export` serializes with a different precision per table (`5000` vs `27000.0000`) — see the module docstring.
> `EFECTIVO FM3` (627) and `CHEQUE FM3` (157) are a separate stream — `fee`/`tax`/`multa` columns instead of `monto` — and migrate as distinct transactions, not reconciled against EFECTIVO.

tables hold the SAME economic records under cosmetic differences, or
genuinely DIFFERENT records. So each group is probed on a deliberate
*business key* (the columns that identify the real-world thing) and the
volatile/identity columns are examined separately. Every table went through
the same mdb-export path, so identical source values serialize identically —
string comparison on a chosen key is a valid identity test.
volatile/identity columns are examined separately.
Method correction (2026-07-22): this file previously assumed that "every table
went through the same mdb-export path, so identical source values serialize
identically". That is false. `mdb-export` formats a numeric column according to
its *Access column type*, so the same amount is emitted as `5000` from one table
and `27000.0000` from another. String-comparing a numeric key column therefore
reports near-zero overlap between tables holding identical records — which is
exactly what produced the original (wrong) "EFECTIVO / EFECTIVO_BACKUP are
near-disjoint ledgers" verdict. Every key column is now canonicalized (numeric
columns parsed and re-formatted to a fixed precision) before comparison.
