…yEngine#8968) The income-treatment acceptance criterion is already met on main: a member sanctioned under the general work requirements (is_snap_work_registration_ noncompliant) has income counted in full per 7 CFR 273.11(c)(1) - proration (273.11(c)(2)) applies only to ABAWD time-limit ineligibles - while still being removed from the SNAP unit. Lock this with a regression test and document on the sanction flag that it is a per-month status with no duration logic (273.7(f)(2) minimum sanction periods are the caller's responsibility). The optional head-of-household household sanction (7 CFR 273.7(f)(5)) is deferred: no state adopter is documented, so an empty state-election parameter would add an inert, untested branch to the SNAP eligibility path.

Follow-up to #8862 / #8961, addressing #8968.
The three sanction semantics in #8968:
is_snap_work_registration_noncompliant) hasis_snap_prorated_income_member = false, so their income is counted in full per 7 CFR 273.11(c)(1) — proration (273.11(c)(2)) applies only to ABAWD time-limit ineligibles — while still being excluded from the SNAP unit. This PR adds a regression test locking that behavior (the issue's acceptance criterion).is_snap_eligiblepath, so I've left it out with a note rather than ship dead logic. Easy to add later behind a populated state list.No behavior change; baseline results are unchanged.
