fix(comms): review findings — consumer-based debug orphan net, foreign-cancel triad, honest onConnected, served-row-exact retirement, full-rate reconcile

F1 (HIGH) DebugStreamBridgeActor: the 5-minute orphan net measured the MAILBOX
(SetReceiveTimeout), and once stream events were correctly marked
INotInfluenceReceiveTimeout nothing recurring reset it — the snapshot lands once
and GrpcStreamStable once — so every healthy session self-terminated at ~6 min
with a false "Site disconnected". Replaced with a periodic self-tick
(ConsumerLivenessCheckInterval, 30s) over a consumer-last-seen stamp renewed only
by DebugStreamConsumerAlive, which DebugStreamService Tells on a shared timer to
every session still in its registry (holding a session there IS "a consumer is
attached" — both the Blazor view and the SignalR hub release it on
dispose/disconnect, and it works headless). Reverting the wrapper was rejected: it
would restore the quiet-instance orphan bug.

F2 (MED) SiteStreamGrpcClient: the RpcException(Cancelled) filter now requires
cts.IsCancellationRequested. A peer-originated / channel-dispose Cancelled fired
none of onError/onCompleted/onConnected, leaving SiteAlarmAggregatorActor with
_streamDown=false forever (IsLive stuck true, reconcile reopen guard never fired).

F3 (MED) SiteStreamGrpcClient: a header TIMEOUT is no longer reported as
connected — that shape is exactly what an unreachable site produces, and it
cleared _streamDown, consumed _seedOnConnect and launched a full snapshot fan-out
at a dead site. AwaitHeadersAsync returns bool; the first received event is the
fallback connected signal, fired at most once from headers OR first event.

F4 (LOW-MED) SqliteAuditWriter.MarkReconciledUpToAsync: the blanket below-cursor
UPDATE retired late-stamped inserts that were never served (then age-purged —
silent loss). The flip is now bounded by insertion order: a Pending row retires
only if its rowid is at or below the high-water mark of rows this instance has
served from ReadPendingSinceAsync (clamped on purge, since SQLite reuses rowids);
Forwarded rows are exempt (central ACKed them over the push path). At-least-once
is unchanged.

F5 (LOW) Documented the liveness dependency (a served row never covered by a later
cursor stays Pending forever; PurgeExpiredAsync never purges Pending) in
ISiteAuditQueue + Component-AuditLog.md, and added a cheap site-health signal:
SiteAuditBacklogReporter logs a rate-limited warning when the existing
oldest-pending metric exceeds 24h.

F6 (MED) SiteAlarmAggregatorActor: _fanoutSinceLastTick was armed by the
reconcile's OWN fan-out, so steady state ran fan-out→skip→fan-out→skip — one
reconcile per 2x interval (120s), halving the not-reporting refresh and the alarm
reconcile backstop. The skip is now armed only by connect/failover-driven seeds
(initial, _seedOnConnect, and a re-seed queued behind one).

Tests: Communication.Tests 691 passed (+13), AuditLog.Tests 382 passed (+5).
