Closes#10438.
## What
Re-verify every entry in `pnpm-lock.yaml` against the policies the resolver chain was configured with — today: `minimumReleaseAge` in strict mode — right after the lockfile is loaded from disk and before any tarball is fetched. A locked version that fails the policy aborts the install with `ERR_PNPM_MINIMUM_RELEASE_AGE_VIOLATION`; `minimumReleaseAgeExclude` is honored.
## Why
The policy only fires while pnpm is *choosing* a version. Once a version is pinned in the lockfile — e.g. a developer disabled the policy locally and committed a fresh dependency, or a CI cache restored a stale lockfile — every later `pnpm install` (including `--frozen-lockfile` and `pnpm fetch`) installs it without re-checking, which defeats the supply-chain protection the setting is supposed to provide.
The threat model is **a lockfile someone else resolved**, not local resolution: local resolution is already covered by the resolver's own per-version filter. bun fixed the same shape of bug in [oven-sh/bun#30526](https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/30526); this PR is the pnpm side.
## How
The fix introduces a generic `ResolutionVerifier` abstraction in the resolver chain — each resolver factory can ship a sibling verifier factory, exactly the way each resolver ships a `resolve` function. Today there's one verifier (npm); the shape leaves room for future ones (jsr, attestation-based, etc.) without changing the install-side interface.
- **`@pnpm/resolving.resolver-base`** exports the `ResolutionVerifier` / `ResolutionVerification` types — the shared contract.
- **`@pnpm/resolving.npm-resolver`** exports `createNpmResolutionVerifier`. Returns `undefined` when no policy is active, so callers can cheaply decide whether to iterate at all. When active, it inspects each lockfile entry, handles `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`, routes through named-registry prefixes (built-ins like `gh:` merged in), and uses `fetchFullMetadataCached` to fetch full registry metadata — decoupled from the resolver pipeline so neither `peekManifestFromStore` nor abbreviated metadata can hide the publish timestamp.
- **`@pnpm/resolving.default-resolver`** exports `createResolutionVerifier`, a combinator that asks each underlying verifier (today: npm) if it has work and returns `undefined` when none does. Designed so that adding more verifiers later doesn't change the install side.
- **`@pnpm/installing.client`** exposes `verifyResolution` on `Client`, built from the same `fetchFromRegistry` / `getAuthHeader` the resolver chain already uses — **no second fetcher is constructed**.
- **`@pnpm/store.connection-manager`** and **`@pnpm/testing.temp-store`** surface `verifyResolution` alongside the store controller they hand back, so it reaches `mutateModules` through the existing plumbing.
- **`@pnpm/installing.deps-installer`** gains one option on `StrictInstallOptions`: `verifyResolution?: ResolutionVerifier`. `mutateModules` invokes `verifyLockfileResolutions(ctx.wantedLockfile, opts.verifyResolution)` **once**, right after `getContext` returns the on-disk lockfile and before any path branches. When the verifier is `undefined`, the call is a no-op. The iteration is policy-neutral: dedupes by `(name, version)`, applies `pLimit(16)`, sorts violations stably, caps the printed list at 20 with an `…and N more` summary, throws a `PnpmError` carrying the verifier-supplied error code.
The error includes a recovery hint that points at `pnpm clean --lockfile` followed by `pnpm install` — the safe way to throw away a poisoned lockfile and rebuild from fresh resolution.
## Tests
- **9 unit tests** for `verifyLockfileResolutions` against a mock `ResolutionVerifier` — dedup, aggregation, stable ordering, the 20-entry cap, no-op behavior, the verifier-supplied error code surfacing in `PnpmError`.
- **13 integration tests** in `installing/deps-installer/test/install/minimumReleaseAge.ts` via the real `install()` entry — `testDefaults()` wires `verifyResolution` from `createTempStore` → `createClient`, so the npm verifier runs end-to-end at the install boundary. Covers the rejection scenario, `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`, the strict-mode toggle, the existing `minimumReleaseAge` resolver-side suite, and a `pnpm add` scenario where a pre-existing entry would otherwise survive resolution.
- **3 e2e tests** in `pnpm/test/install/minimumReleaseAge.ts` against the bundled CLI: rejection path with the right `ERR_PNPM_*` code and `pnpm clean --lockfile` hint in output, `minimumReleaseAgeExclude` honored, and the strict-off path (which now requires an explicit `minimumReleaseAgeStrict: false` since the config reader auto-enables strict mode when `minimumReleaseAge` is set).
- Existing `frozenLockfile` suite (12 tests) and npm-resolver suite (179 tests) still pass.

## Summary
- The local resolver's path-shape match was claiming any specifier containing `/` as a local directory, so `pnpm add bit:@teambit/bit` (with `bit` configured under `namedRegistries`) installed a bogus link to `bit:@teambit/bit/` instead of resolving from the configured registry.
- Split the local resolver into two exports: `resolveFromLocalScheme` (handles `file:`/`link:`/`workspace:`/`path:`) and `resolveFromLocalPath` (path-shape match — tarball extension, `path.sep`, `isFilespec`). `resolveFromLocal` is removed.
- Re-order the default-resolver chain so the scheme pass runs *before* `resolveFromNamedRegistry` and the path pass runs *after*. Explicit local protocols still win even when a user configures a colliding `namedRegistries` alias; named-registry aliases reach their configured URL.
Repro before the fix:
```
$ cat pnpm-workspace.yaml
namedRegistries:
bit: https://node-registry.bit.cloud/
$ pnpm add bit:@teambit/bit
[WARN] Installing a dependency from a non-existent directory: /private/tmp/.../bit:@teambit/bit
dependencies:
+ bit 0.0.0 <- bit:@teambit/bit
```
After the fix, the same command resolves `@teambit/bit 1.13.173` from `https://node-registry.bit.cloud/` and writes `"@teambit/bit": "bit:^1.13.173"` to `package.json`.
