Replace the snapscreener-sourced FY2026 (2025-10-01) values with the official FNS FY26 SUA table (2026-05-21 release): Wisconsin HCSUA/LUA and all single standards, Idaho LUA and singles, Louisiana LUA discontinued, New York LUA values, Maine phone standard eliminated, one-dollar HCSUA corrections in AL/ID/MO/SD, NV singles, MD/SD phone, and exact NC cents (636.74 size-1 HCSUA, 42.11 phone). New Jersey is pending in the official table and keeps its current values. Fixes #9314 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The distinct-utility count reads pre_subsidy_electricity_expense, and snap_individual_utility_allowance sums every single-utility standard. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Validates and corrects every FY2026 (2025-10-01) SNAP utility allowance against the official FNS FY26 SUA table (2026-05-21 release, effective Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026). The previous FY2026 values were snapscreener estimates.
Fixes #9314
What changed (30 values)
limited/active→ false)All other regions and household-size tables (AZ, NC 2–5+, TN, VA, GU, HI, AK, plus every remaining flat value) already matched the official table exactly — verified programmatically against the xlsx.
Not changed (by design)
Tests
New
snap_utility_allowance_fy2026.yaml(11 cases): WI SUA/LUA from real expense situations, ID LUA, LA falling to individual standards now that its LUA is discontinued, MO/NC (exact cents) HCSUA, SD phone-only, plus direct pins for NY_NAS/NY_ONY LUA and ME/MD individual standards (always-standard states can't reach those types from expenses). One existing NC annual pin updated for the exact cents.Testing is delegated to CI per request; other baseline tests asserting SNAP amounts in the affected states may shift and will be reconciled from CI results.
