docs(spf): drop stale repositionPolicy references after seam removal

The repositionPolicy seam was removed when seek-to-live-edge's guard became
reload-driven. Reframe the sibling references: the guard does window-exit, and
the edge-only [live-edge-only-mode] use-case supplies its own reposition
behavior (alternative-impl) rather than flipping a seam.
