assumed-Modified-MIT(continuity with Kimi K2.x

Modified-MIT weights - standard MIT below a 100M-MAU and $20M-monthly-revenue threshold - with a closed corpus, so 3. Confidence is medium rather than high on purpose: K3 governs as the current release, and its license is recorded as `assumed-Modified-MIT` by continuity with K2.x rather than confirmed against a published file. K2.6's Modified-MIT is confirmed, so the tier's openness firms up as soon as K3's terms are read directly. Adoption 4 is carried from K2.6.
