/**
 * THE normaliser of one extraction source's markable lists (round 13): `files`
 * (`list: 'files'`) and an `import-edges` target's `to.files` (`list:
 * 'to.files'`) go through core's one parser, `normalizeUnitList`, into the
 * plain string lists every engine reads, and every `{ pattern, expectEmpty:
 * true }` entry into the source's `expectEmptyUnits` ledger.
 *
 * IDEMPOTENT: a loaded source (plain lists) comes back equal, its ledger kept
 * — so the loader, the pack merge seam, `gates try` and the engine entries
 * (`inspectSource`, `runWiring`) may all call it, and a hand-built source
 * never reaches a reader with an object in a glob list. A malformed entry is a
 * `CONFIG_INVALID` error naming every bad entry (`files[1]: …`), never a crash.
