…develop Rewrite .github/pull_request_template.md to the house style — Why, What changed, Verification (with a Lane line), and a collapsible pre-merge checklist — replacing the old Summary / Type-of-change / Checklist form. Update the README release-status line: develop now carries v1.8.0 "illustrative" (native vector charts, inline sparklines, ShapeOutline.Path clip, sharper SVG-reader errors), not the placeholder v1.7.2 housekeeping cycle.

Why
The PR template still used the old Summary / Type-of-change / Checklist form,
and the README release-status line advertised a placeholder "v1.7.2 housekeeping
cycle" in develop — but develop now carries the v1.8.0 "illustrative" work
(native vector charts, inline sparklines, ShapeOutline.Path clip, sharper
SVG-reader errors).
What changed
.github/pull_request_template.md— rewritten to the house style: Why →What changed → Verification (with a Lane line) and a collapsible pre-merge
checklist, dropping the empty-placeholder Summary / Type-of-change form.
README.md— the release-status line now reads "In develop: v1.8.0 —illustrative (additive, zero breaking from v1.7)".
Verification
./mvnw test -Dtest=DocumentationCoverageTest -pl .→ BUILD SUCCESS, 5 tests:the README canonical-DSL / no-legacy-token guard stays green after the edit.
Lane: docs — no code, no public-API change.
