G12 dc1: apex confirm-free captured; dc-rack-mgmt-import gains per-site (--site) dc1 support ...

Confirm-free vs live apex (read-only): dc1 planes already assigned+consistent,
transit 172.31.0.4/30 + rack 10.12.68.2 free, uplink 172.30.3.0/24 registered.
Importer harness 117/117; live dc1 dry-run preflight PASS (captures committed).
The apex --commit remains an operator-gated step.
