Moderate signal
editorial:auto 14d

v0.18.0 fixes three core snapshot generation bugs (all-zero block handling, kcore PT_LOAD gap traversal, v1/v2 block chunking) and upgrades to GA Azure SDK.

Why it matters: Upgrade if using kcore snapshots or Azure integration to fix stability gaps. GA Azure SDK reduces maintenance surface. Test in staging first.
