catalog: pin exact package versions, drop firecrawl, add last_release 
- Pin every basic-tier entry to an exact published version (npm @x.y.z,
  uvx @x.y.z, docker :tag). Unpinned npx -y <pkg> means a package
  compromised AFTER we ship auto-upgrades into every user; a pin bounds
  supply-chain compromise to versions we actually reviewed.
- Drop firecrawl from the seed (19 entries). npm publish rights are held
  solely by hello_sideguide/sideguide.dev, which has no visible
  relationship to firecrawl.dev, while the package is presented as
  official. Publisher identity we cannot tie to the vendor is exactly
  what this catalog must not execute on a user's machine. Retained in the
  research pool pending confirmation.
- postgres: ship --access-mode=restricted, not unrestricted. A curated
  catalog must not default to handing an LLM write access to your DB.
- Add last_release (ISO date, from the live registry) so the UI can show
  freshness; postgres-mcp and mcp-obsidian are both ~14mo stale.
