M2: implement SendEventAsync — event-send rides WCF AddS2, not the storage pipe

Roadmap Milestone 2 (event sending). Capture disproved the assumption that event
delivery uses the non-WCF storage-engine pipe (which would block it like revision
writes): a native AddStreamedValue(HistorianEvent) leaves over WCF as AddS2
(IHistoryServiceContract2.AddStreamValues2). CM_EVENT is a built-in registered tag,
so the 129 TagNotFoundInCache gate that blocks AddS2 for user tags does not apply.

- R2.1: NativeTraceHarness "event-send" scenario + Capture-EventSend.ps1; two
  captures diffed to separate constant framing from value-dependent fields.
- R2.2: HistorianEventWriteProtocol serializes the AddS2 pBuf (storage sample buffer
  wrapping the event VTQ) — golden-byte tested. Decoded "OS" sig + length fields +
  CM_EVENT tag id + EventTime/ReceivedTime FILETIMEs + Opc 192 + 0x118D descriptor +
  event Id + Namespace + EventType + version 5 + typed property bag.
- R2.3/R2.4: HistorianWcfEventOrchestrator.SendEventAsync (Open2 event-mode 0x501 ->
  reuse CM_EVENT RTag2/EnsT2 -> AddStreamValues2) + HistorianClient.SendEventAsync.
- R2.5: gated live test; server accepts the AddS2 (success, empty error buffer).

Server requires delivered byte[].Length == declared packet length (uint32@0x04); the
native relies on the MDAS encoder adding a pad byte, so the SDK emits an explicit
trailing 0x00 (else AddS2 rejects with "CValuStream buffer size vs packet length
mismatch"). Original events only (RevisionVersion=0) with string properties; other
property types + revision/update/delete throw ProtocolEvidenceMissingException.

Caveat (documented): accepted events are not persisted on the local dev box; the
native client behaves identically (event ingestion pipeline inactive) — not an SDK
gap. 212 unit tests pass; 16/16 event tests pass live.

"""Decide whether native event-send (HCAL R2.1) rides WCF or the storage-engine pipe.
Reads the both-hooks capture produced by scripts/Capture-EventSend.ps1 and, for every
outgoing WCF.WriteMessage.Body, tries to recognise the SOAP action / operation name. It
then renders a verdict:
* If a storage/event delivery op (AddStreamValues / EnqueueEventDataPacket /
OpenEventConnection / StartStorage / AddS2 / AddStreamValues2) appears on the WRITE path,
event-send is a WCF op → M2 is implementable over WCF and that body carries the
PackToVtq event value blob to decode (R2.2).
* If NO such op appears on the WRITE path, the queued event was delivered via the
storage-engine shared-memory pipe (not WCF) — M2 is architecturally blocked as a
pure-managed-WCF SDK, the same conclusion as the revision-write path.
Output is diagnostic. Sanitize before copying into docs/.
