When did .direct reach documented general availability?

No general-availability event is included in the current result. Other launch records do not establish a public-registration date.

Can a sunrise or IANA date establish who could register?

No. A sunrise date describes a particular phase, and IANA registration is separate from delegation and commercial availability. Use the source linked with the event for its published conditions.
