.gitlab-ci.yml: substrate-score job + CLI invocation v8 → substrate

Third refactor-induced defect caught from yesterday's v7+v8 →
substrate rename (`bae5caf` for the package, `209d670` for the
Makefile). Same pattern: a callsite that text-search misses
because the import path doesn't connect through Python.

CI surface (the `v8-score:` GitLab CI job) had two issues:

1. Job name `v8-score:` was a UX surface — operators see it in the
   GitLab MR pipeline UI. Renamed to `substrate-score:` for
   consistency with the package name + the CLI subcommand.
2. Script line called ``.venv/bin/arborist v8 score …``. Would
   have failed on the next manual MR pipeline run with an
   argparse "invalid choice: 'v8'" error.

Comment block (lines 80-90 + 115-125) refreshed to call out the
distinction: ``v8 paper`` (the substrate-paper version, name
preserved per published convention) vs the module location
(``arborist/substrate/fork_score.py`` post-2026-05-10 rename).

Sweep verified: ``grep -rnE "arborist v[0-9]\\b|arborist\\.v[78]\\b"``
across the entire tree returns only intentional historical-note
comments + the placeholder-seed bytestring derivation (which
cannot change without invalidating KAT vectors).

Three loose ends from one refactor:
- 85be5eb: fork_score.py import (Python imports caught by tests)
- 209d670: Makefile bench-fork-score target (would surface on run)
- this:    .gitlab-ci.yml job (would surface on next MR pipeline)

Lesson written across the three commits: text-search-replace on
a CLI rename misses callsites that argparse processes at runtime.
Pre-rename checklist for next time: ``grep -rn "<cli-old-name>"
Makefile .gitlab-ci.yml .github/workflows scripts bench``.
