Complete project rebrand for better positioning in the press freedom
and digital security space. FieldWitness communicates both field
deployment and evidence testimony — appropriate for the target audience
of journalists, NGOs, and human rights organizations.
Rename mapping:
- soosef → fieldwitness (package, CLI, all imports)
- soosef.stegasoo → fieldwitness.stego
- soosef.verisoo → fieldwitness.attest
- ~/.soosef/ → ~/.fwmetadata/ (innocuous data dir name)
- SOOSEF_DATA_DIR → FIELDWITNESS_DATA_DIR
- SoosefConfig → FieldWitnessConfig
- SoosefError → FieldWitnessError
Also includes:
- License switch from MIT to GPL-3.0
- C2PA bridge module (Phase 0-2 MVP): cert.py, export.py, vendor_assertions.py
- README repositioned to lead with provenance/federation, stego backgrounded
- Threat model skeleton at docs/security/threat-model.md
- Planning docs: docs/planning/c2pa-integration.md, docs/planning/gtm-feasibility.md

Merge stegasoo (v4.3.0, steganography) and verisoo (v0.1.0, attestation)
as subpackages under soosef.stegasoo and soosef.verisoo. This eliminates
cross-repo coordination and enables atomic changes across the full stack.
- Copy stegasoo (34 modules) and verisoo (15 modules) into src/soosef/
- Convert all verisoo absolute imports to relative imports
- Rewire ~50 import sites across soosef code (cli, web, keystore, tests)
- Replace stegasoo/verisoo pip deps with inlined code + pip extras
(stego-dct, stego-audio, attest, web, api, cli, fieldkit, all, dev)
- Add _availability.py for runtime feature detection
- Add unified FastAPI mount point at soosef.api
- Copy and adapt tests from both repos (155 pass, 1 skip)
- Drop standalone CLI/web frontends; keep FastAPI as optional modules
- Both source repos tagged pre-monorepo-consolidation on GitHub
