Fabio d6874ca8a6 Close the institutional gap: bodies, committees, leadership
The seat data answered 'who represents this place?' but not 'who runs
this institution?' — the Speaker of the House existed only as the rep
for LA-4. This adds the missing axis of institutional power.

New Body entities (233): the U.S. House, U.S. Senate, Executive Office,
49 committees, 181 subcommittees — each with its leadership.

Federal people (532/542) enriched with bioguide IDs, leadership roles,
and committee seats, reconciled from congress-legislators by name.
Mike Johnson is now Speaker of the House, not just LA-4.

Sources ingested directly into the repo (repo-canonical): Atlas
supplied bodies/leadership/committee_memberships via congress-legislators,
committed raw in data/. build.py supersedes convert_officeholders.py and
reads all four inputs in one deterministic pass (byte-identical on rerun).

The 10 unenriched federal records are a finding, not a bug: vacancies,
the President, and ~5 seats where Atlas's roster disagrees with the
authoritative current roster — model-vs-reality discrepancies to surface.
