docs(memory-bank): record that #129 and #130 are merged

The maintainer merged the tests-only round (#129, 2026-10-21 08:24Z) and
the Memory Bank (#130, 08:47Z); master is d0cb57c. The new tests gave the
same counts on the runner in three CI runs (the first PR head, the second
PR head, and master after #129).

The notes no longer list the merge as open. What is open before the
stable pull request is the decision on #34 (2026-11-02), the check of
the PSGALLERY_API_KEY, and the decision on the open items, among them
the 10 rows (7 MaintainerDecision, 3 would-pin) that wait for the
maintainer. last-verified moves to 2026-10-21 in the three files.
