Improve BLE mesh flooding: last-hop suppression, K-of-N fanout, and backpressure (#517)

* Improve BLE mesh relay and flooding

Add last-hop suppression using ingress-link tracking to prevent echo. Implement deterministic always-relay for handshakes and directed encrypted/fragments; widen jitter for broadcasts; keep TTL cap only for broadcast. Add deterministic K-of-N broadcast fanout to reduce amplification in dense topologies. Introduce backpressure-aware writes using canSendWriteWithoutResponse with per-peripheral queues and draining on peripheralIsReady. Minor helpers for messageID, deterministic selection, and maintenance cleanup.

* Tests: stabilize FragmentationTests and InputValidatorTests

Make _test_handlePacket mark synthetic peers verified/connected with normalized senderID to avoid drops in public-message reassembly tests. Tighten validatePeerID to reject non-hex strings when length equals 16 or 64; allow internal IDs only for other lengths. All iOS simulator tests pass locally.
