Stat priority refreshed for Season 2

Season 2 opened on 18 August, so the shipped stat priority guidance was re-checked against every source it cites. Most of it had not moved: of the 40 specializations, 37 are unchanged. Three did change.

• Unholy Death Knight -- now Crit > Mastery > Haste > Versatility. The guide author reworked this on 17 August; Crit is now rated slightly ahead of Mastery on average. Both hero trees list the same order.
• Subtlety Rogue -- now Mastery > Haste > Versatility > Crit. Versatility moved ahead of Crit on 19 August. The two separate Haste targets have also collapsed into a single ~700 for both Raid and Mythic+.
• Preservation Evoker -- this one was our mistake rather than a data change. It was being shown as two hero talent rows, Flameshaper and Chronowarden. The source never split it that way: those two columns are Raid and Mythic+, and the page carries no hero talent split at all. It is now a single row, Mastery > Crit > Haste > Versatility, and it is marked as provisional because the sources still disagree on the Mythic+ order.

Note that most guide authors have not yet responded to the 18 August class tuning, so a further pass is expected once they do.

Nothing else changed for players. Internally the shipped data file now has a test that checks its shape, so a typo in a stat name or a dropped stat cannot ship silently.
