Add field correctness diagnostics: store invariant audit, drop and bounds proofs

ConversationStore.auditInvariants() verifies the per-conversation and
store-level message-ID indexes, caps, timestamp ordering, unread-set
membership, and selection validity - wired to the existing read-receipt
cleanup cadence, loud (.error) on violation, sampled heartbeat when
healthy (~2.8ms per audit at 5k messages, benchmarked and floored).
Router drops log both outcomes (marked failed / skipped by no-downgrade
guard); relay cap evictions, age sweeps, and jittered reconnect delays
log their counts; mirrored republishes get a sampled proof line. 11 new
invariant tests corrupt store state through DEBUG-only hooks since the
single-writer lockdown makes those states unreachable via intents.
