feat(grpc): site-side ICentralTransport seam + gRPC transport (T1A.3)

Introduce ICentralTransport as the site->central choke point inside
SiteCommunicationActor. The seven site->central sends (notification submit/
status, audit + cached-telemetry ingest, reconcile, health, heartbeat) now
delegate to an injected transport instead of owning ClusterClient.Send inline.

- AkkaCentralTransport: verbatim extraction of today's ClusterClient.Send path,
  including the exact sender-forwarding that routes central's reply straight
  back to the waiting Ask. Default when no transport is injected -> behaviour
  unchanged, existing SiteCommunicationActorTests pass as-is.
- GrpcCentralTransport + CentralChannelProvider: dial CentralControlService with
  sticky failover + background failback (1s-doubling-cap-60s), PSK +
  x-scadabridge-site via ControlPlaneCredentials, per-call deadlines mirroring
  today's Ask timeouts. Cross-node retry ONLY on provably-unsent
  connect failures; never on DeadlineExceeded. Heartbeat stays fire-and-forget.
- StaticSitePskProvider: site's single own-key provider (fail-closed).
- CommunicationOptions: CentralTransport flag (default Akka) + CentralGrpcEndpoints
  (validator: required when transport=Grpc). Host selects the impl; the
  ClusterClient is created only on the Akka path.

Tests: actor-with-fake-transport (7 delegations + fault routing + heartbeat
no-fault), AkkaCentralTransport sender-forwarding, GrpcCentralTransport over
in-process TestServer (failover flip, sticky, failback, PSK+header, deadline,
no-retry-on-deadline), validator. Communication.Tests 371 green, Host.Tests 391
green; the three above-seam suites pass unmodified.
