rad-experiment-redact - Redact an experiment, indicating it should not be relied upon

rad-experiment redact [-r|--repo] [--reason] [--json] [-q|--quiet] [--pretty] [-h|--help] <ID>

Marks an experiment as redacted with an optional reason.

Redacted experiments still exist in the COB store and replicate as normal, but `list` hides them by default and the frontend shows them struck through. Use this for results you can no longer stand behind — e.g. you discovered the benchmark harness was buggy, or the candidate commit was rebased away. Redaction is signed and visible to peers; it is not a delete.
