Validate metadata v2 PRs without executing submitted plugin code, and dispatch database publication after merge. Protected fields require maintainer approval on the current revision.

Companion to brain-score/brain-score.web#560. Disabled until METADATA_V2_ENABLED and the shared package, App, and publisher are configured.

Validation: workflow YAML checked; live workflow execution remains untested.

Updated in 880ac9e: correct CvT-13 384/22k metadata to the reproduced 224 × 224 processor output. The wrapper first resizes to 384px, but the inspected Hugging Face configuration with the loader-pinned Transformers 4.30.2 center-crops to 224px. Added the processor implementation as evidence; resolution and input-format assertions remain uncertain because the historical Hub revision is unpinned. This changes metadata, not model loaders or scoring.

All seven CvT files passed schema, table conversion and recorded-evidence coverage checks. The local publication rehearsal published all seven, retried without duplicate revisions, and preserved score rows and displayed leaderboard ranks. No shared-dev publication was made.

Evidence, exact candidate hashes and reproduction instructions. First publication still requires metadata-source-override and independent maintainer approval on this exact PR head; an administrator merge alone does not satisfy the publisher gate.

Follow-up publication review is now in #2571. It adds the recorded preprocessing reproduction to all seven CvT files while preserving model facts, confidence and source protections.

Because this PR merged without independent approval or metadata-source-override, use the independently approved and merged #2571 for initial dev publication. Evidence and successful local publication/retry checks. No shared-dev writes have been made.
