Details: TC-887

Adds the restore-order rule, in bold, to docs/encryption-named-keys.md "Deletion ledger": when the node DB is restored from a PlanetScale backup, keep the node's existing disk and its deletion ledger, then boot normally. The boot replay then re-shreds keys deleted after the backup. Restoring onto a fresh disk without the ledger undoes those later deletions.

This assumes there is no off-disk ledger backup; that is the risk Sam accepted. The backup sidecar is draft #499, on hold. Docs only, no code or config change.
