This PR updates the entry for C17, the exponential growth constant of diagonal Ramsey numbers, improving the recorded upper bound

3.7992027396...

to

3.791993699438612 < 3.792.

The proof applies Theorem 13 and Lemma 14 of Gupta--Ndiaye--Norin--Wei, Optimizing the CGMS upper bound on Ramsey numbers (arXiv:2407.19026), with an explicit degree-14 perturbation and a computer-assisted verification of the required inequalities.

The proof note, verifier, JSON certificate, and GitHub Actions check are available here:
