prime_mod_four_one_divisible_two_square_norm_exists

Dependency-curried candidate body; not Alpha-enrolled; no checked-use authority

A prime equal to one modulo four divides an explicitly witnessed two-square norm r²+1.

Current library: Alpha v34, 4,223 checked-use theorems; Stable remains 432. Historical first admissions, original proof editions, and non-admitted aliases are preserved. Exact original first-admission records.
