research(R6.2.5): multi-subject occupancy union — N=5 hits 100% for 4 occupants; R6 family complete (#730)
Extends R6.2.3 chest-centric placement to union of chest envelopes
across multiple occupants. Practical question: does coverage degrade
gracefully as occupant count grows?

Result: 2D chest-centric + N=5 + multi-subject union = 100% coverage
for households of 1-4 occupants. N=4 knee returns.

| Scenario   | # zones | Cov @ N=5 |
|------------|--------:|----------:|
| 1 occupant |       1 |     100%  |
| 2 occupants|       2 |     100%  |
| 3 occupants|       3 |     100%  |
| 4 occupants|       4 |     100%  |

4-occupant saturation: N=4 = 99.0% (+26.1 pp marginal), N=5 = 100%,
N=6+ saturated. Knee at N=4 even for 4 occupants.

Cross-eval: single-subject placement gets 70.6% on 4 zones; multi-
subject-optimised gets 100%. +29.4 pp gain from multi-subject
optimisation. CLI MUST accept multiple --target args and compute union.

Why N=4 knee returns: each chest zone is 40x40 cm, fits inside one
Fresnel ellipsoid (~40 cm wide at midpoint of 5 m link). N=4 anchors
give 6 pairwise links, enough to cover 4 disjoint chest zones without
much waste. Chest-centric multi-subject is the SWEET SPOT for Fresnel
envelope geometry.

R6 family complete (9 ticks: R6, R6.1, R6.2, R6.2.1, R6.2.2, R6.2.2.1,
R6.2.3, R6.2.4, R6.2.5). Family's ship recipe:
- 2D chest-centric + multi-subject + N=5 = 100% coverage

Productisation CLI spec (50 LOC over original R6.2):
  wifi-densepose plan-antennas
      --room W H [Z]                  # 2D or 3D
      --target NAME X Y W H [DX DY DZ] # repeatable
      --target-mode {body, chest}     # R6.2.3
      --freq-ghz F
      --n-anchors N                   # auto-saturation if omitted
      --restarts K

Honest scope: 2D only (3D multi-subject = mechanical extension), static
positions, single 5x5 m geometry, greedy with 4 restarts, 4 occupants
max tested.

Composes:
- R6.2 / R6.2.3 direct extension (single -> multi)
- R6.2.2 / R6.2.4 same saturation behaviour
- R14 V1/V2/V3 in households of 2-4 use this recipe
- R3 / ADR-024 per-subject identity + multi-subject placement
- ADR-105/106/107 federation orthogonal
- R12 PABS multi-subject coverage = multi-subject intrusion detection
