Part of the coilysiren/inbox#365 teardown. Provably-dead keys only, no behavior change.

Removed

catalog.kind / type / system / owner / lifecycle - the retired Backstage vocab. agentic_os/pre_commit/check_catalog_block.py explicitly ignores them and the catalog-graph builder no longer reads them. agentic-os already dropped them, infrastructure was the straggler.
ssh: - traced to zero consumers. The only other working_dir hits in the repo are an unrelated Windows Terminal convergence test. Ward's own schema doc (ward/docs/ward-yaml.md) says unknown fields consumed by neither Ward nor cli-guard have no effect and should be removed, so this is the doc's own instruction.

Kept for now

catalog.description and agent.workflow - ruled in inbox#365 but their moves need other work first.
catalog.dependsOn - ruled delete, but it is live and ward-consumed. Retirement is tracked at coilyco-flight-deck/ward#1660.

Verified

ward doctor passes. All 85 commands still parse.

Removes the five retired Backstage-vocab catalog keys (kind, type, system,
owner, lifecycle). They are ignored by check_catalog_block.py and no longer
read by the catalog-graph builder. agentic-os already dropped them.

Also removes the ssh: block. It has zero consumers, and ward's own schema doc
says unknown fields consumed by neither Ward nor cli-guard should be removed.

ward doctor passes. All 85 commands intact.
