docs: the OS DOES paint -- skip run boots to a running X11 server (root weave confirmed in a frame dump); correct the claim I wrote

### What is not modelled
**LANCE Ethernet**, and **DUART2** (`0x0620000`, keyboard/mouse — opt in with
`VT1200_DUART2=1`). The OS is therefore not usable yet: it is reached, but it
does not paint.
**It gets further than "not modelled" suggests.** With `VT1200_SKIP_LEVEL1=1`
(below), the OS boots to a **running X11 server**: the root-window weave renders,
and the cursor is handed over to the terminal's own mouse cursor. Confirmed in the
GUI *and* from a frame dump — `skip_frame3000.png`, taken from a headless skip run
at frame 3000. The real terminal shows the same weave during boot.
Not modelled, and therefore still untested: DUART2 (keyboard/mouse input) and
LANCE Ethernet. They do not block the X11 bring-up — the server draws its root
window without a client — but input almost certainly needs DUART2.
