What
The list of places settings can come from now records, for each one, whether it belongs to the operator or to the repository and where it sits in precedence: policy settings rank 0, flag settings 1, user settings 2, with project and local settings marked as repo-owned. This replaces a flat name lookup.
Details
New maps translate between the short names user, project and local and the internal settings keys.
Evidence
{ kind: "operator", rank: 0 }
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
