feat: prove flower fractal dimension theorem (zero sorry, zero custom axioms)

Complete formal verification of d_B = log(u+v)/log(u) for the (u,v)-flower
network family (Rozenfeld, Havlin & ben-Avraham, NJP 2007).

Proof architecture (Route B — squeeze):
- FlowerCounts: edge/vertex recurrences, two-sided bounds
- FlowerDiameter: hub distance L_g = u^g as pure arithmetic
- FlowerDimension: squeeze limit via Filter.Tendsto

Key decisions:
- Pure arithmetic recurrences (no SimpleGraph in critical path)
- Multiplicative form for vertex count (avoids ℕ subtraction)
- Granular Mathlib imports (1925 vs 3127 build jobs)

Includes:
- Mathlib playbook compliance (naming, formatting, lint, docs)
- Aristotle independent verification (13/13 arithmetic theorems)
- Axiom dashboard: all theorems depend only on [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]

--- The vertex count uses the recurrence:

-# Flower Graph Diameter Scaling
+# Flower Graph Hub-Distance Scaling
 
-The diameter of the (u,v)-flower at generation `g` scales as `u^g`
-for `u > 1`. The shortest path between the two hub vertices traverses
-the shorter parallel path (of length `u`) at each generation, giving
-`L_g = u^g`.
+The hub-to-hub distance in the (u,v)-flower at generation `g` scales
+as `u^g`. This is defined as a pure arithmetic recurrence encoding the
+recursive construction rule: at each generation, the shortest path
+between hubs follows the short side (`u` sub-edges), each of which is
+itself a copy of the previous generation.
 
-## Main statements
+This file does not reference `SimpleGraph.dist` or `SimpleGraph.edist`.
+The connection between `flowerHubDist` and a concrete graph metric is
+a deferred bridge theorem (see `FlowerGraph.lean`).
 
-- `flower_diam_eq` — `L_g = u^g` (or asymptotic bound if exact
-  formula requires parity analysis)
+## Main definitions
 
-## Implementation notes
+- `flowerHubDist` — hub-to-hub distance at generation `g`
+- `flowerHubDistReal` — hub distance cast to `ℝ`
 
-The exact diameter formula `L_g = u^g` holds because:
-1. The two original hubs are at distance `u^g` (the short path
-   recurses through `g` generations).
-2. No pair of vertices can be farther apart (the long path of
-   length `v^g` between hubs provides an alternative route, but
-   `u ≤ v` means internal vertices on the long path are closer
-   to a hub than the hub-to-hub distance).
+## Main statements
 
-For the headline theorem, we need `Real.log L_g / g → Real.log u`,
-which follows from `L_g = u^g` and `Real.log (u^g) = g * Real.log u`.
+- `flowerHubDist_eq_pow` — `flowerHubDist u v g = u ^ g`
+- `flowerHubDist_pos` — `0 < flowerHubDist u v g` when `1 < u`
+- `flowerHubDistReal_pos` — positivity in `ℝ`
