Subject: [PATCH] fix(config): guard the emission-date probes against absent
 formats

The generic emissionDate rule ran unconditionally: on a document whose
date is not numeric (e.g. "le 19 janvier 2026"), date(firstMatch(...))
errored on the empty match and routed a correctly classified document to
pending/. Each format probe now checks for its own format first, and a
frDate fallback handles French natural-language dates.
