Stop force-deactivating the standalone Emerging Markets agreement on boot

Per product decision (reversal of the earlier "keep EM deactivated"): the
standalone "Emerging Markets Agreement" is now admin-owned. Removed the R6.3
self-healing block that re-set it to Inactive on every Space restart (which
undid any admin reactivation overnight), plus the related legacy
"Emerging Markets - House Standard" force-deactivation. No agreement is
force-deactivated on boot anymore; active/inactive is controlled from the
admin panel and persists. EMB stays a separate active agreement.
