feat(mqtt): Sparkplug primary-host STATE publishing, Primary-gated (#511)

`ActAsPrimaryHost` was accepted by config and by the AdminUI form and did nothing but
log a warning. It now delivers the whole three-part contract or none of it: a retained
`ONLINE` on `spBv1.0/STATE/{hostId}`, a matching retained `OFFLINE` armed as the MQTT
Last Will, and an explicit `OFFLINE` on a clean stand-down.

**The claim is a dedicated connection, not a message.** A Will can only be registered in
the CONNECT packet — it cannot be added to a live session, changed, or withdrawn. So a
claim that is acquired and released at runtime cannot ride the long-lived ingest session.
`SparkplugPrimaryHost` opens its own connection (client id `{clientId}-spbhost`, forced
clean-session) when the node gains Primary and closes it when the node loses Primary; the
connection's lifetime *is* the claim, so every leg follows from its lifecycle. Ingest is
untouched by a role change — no dropped subscriptions, no lost birth cache, no data gap at
the Secondary->Primary transition.

**Primary-gated** (owner decision, recorded on the issue). Both pair nodes subscribe
independently, so an ungated claim means both claim the same host id — and the sharp
failure is not the two fighting over the retained STATE, it is that the SECONDARY's death
fires its Will and publishes OFFLINE while the Primary is healthy, stopping every edge node
in the group. Registering the Will only on whichever node is Primary at connect time fails
the other way: a node that later gains Primary would publish ONLINE with no Will behind it.

New seam: `IDriverPrimaryRoleSource` (`Core.Abstractions`) carrying the *data-plane* verdict
(`PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldServiceAsPrimary`), not the alarm-drain verdict — an unknown role
with a driver peer present must deny. Registered unconditionally by `AddOtOpcUaRuntime`,
deliberately NOT alongside `IRedundancyRoleView`, which `AddAlarmHistorian` registers only
when that section is enabled: piggybacking would leave a pair with no alarm historian
falling back to "claim unconditionally". Polled on a 1s timer rather than evented — a
process singleton raising events at per-instance drivers outlives every driver it holds.

Accepted trade: a brief edge-visible OFFLINE window during failover. That is a genuine
state transition, not a glitch to hide.

Live-gated 5/5 against the Mosquitto fixture, including the Will leg — `AbandonForTests`
drops the socket with no DISCONNECT, because a clean disconnect makes the broker discard
the Will by protocol rule, so a test driven through `StopAsync` would observe the
stand-down OFFLINE and pass against an implementation that never armed a Will. Falsified:
removing the Will turns that leg and only that leg red.

Also corrects two stale claims found en route: the AdminUI form still said MQTT tags are
read-only (#508 shipped), and the driver doc still said nothing consumes `IRediscoverable`.

## Primary host (`actAsPrimaryHost`)
A Sparkplug **Primary Host Application** is the thing edge nodes watch to decide whether anyone is
listening — many stop publishing while their host is offline. Claiming it is a three-part contract,
and this driver ships all three or none of it
([#511](https://gitea.dohertylan.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/511)):
1. a **retained** `{"online":true,"timestamp":…}` on `spBv1.0/STATE/{hostId}`, QoS 1, published after CONNACK;
2. a matching **retained `OFFLINE` armed as the MQTT Last Will**, so a crash still reports the truth;
3. an explicit `OFFLINE` on a clean stand-down, so edge nodes do not wait out a keep-alive timeout.
Set `Sparkplug.HostId` and `Sparkplug.ActAsPrimaryHost: true`. A blank host id is **refused** with a
warning — the driver does not publish to `spBv1.0/STATE/`, which is a legal topic reaching nobody.
### The claim is a whole connection, not a message
A Will can only be registered in the **CONNECT packet**. It cannot be added to a live session, changed,
or withdrawn. So the claim gets its **own** broker connection (client id `{clientId}-spbhost`, forced
clean-session) whose lifetime *is* the claim: opened on gaining Primary, closed on losing it. Every leg
then follows from the connection's lifecycle rather than from bookkeeping that could drift.
The ingest session is untouched by a role change — no dropped subscriptions, no lost birth cache, and
no data gap at the Secondary→Primary transition, which is the moment a plant most needs values flowing.
### Primary-gated — and why the obvious alternatives are wrong
Both nodes of a redundant pair subscribe independently (MQTT fan-out is per-connection, and the Primary
gate applies downstream of ingest), so an ungated claim means both claim the same host id. The sharp
failure is not the two fighting over the retained `STATE`. It is that the **Secondary's** death fires
*its* Will, publishing `OFFLINE` while the Primary is perfectly healthy — every edge node in the group
stops publishing, and redundancy has caused the outage the mechanism exists to prevent.
Registering the Will only on whichever node is Primary *at connect time* fails the other way: a node
that later gains Primary would publish `ONLINE` with no Will behind it, and a crash would leave a
retained `ONLINE` asserting forever that a dead host is alive.
Hence: bind the claim to a connection, and rebuild the connection on role change.
| Node state | STATE connection | Retained `STATE` |
|---|---|---|
| Primary | open, Will armed | `ONLINE` |
| Secondary / Detached | **never opened** | — (whatever the Primary published) |
| Role unknown, driver peer present | not opened (fail closed) | — |
| Role unknown, no driver peer (single node) | open | `ONLINE` |
The verdict comes from `PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldServiceAsPrimary` via `IDriverPrimaryRoleSource`
(`Core.Abstractions`), published by `DriverHostActor` on every redundancy snapshot and **sampled on a
1-second timer** rather than evented — a process-singleton raising events at per-instance drivers
outlives every driver it holds a reference to.
> **Accepted trade: a brief edge-visible `OFFLINE` during failover**, while the old Primary stands down
> and the new one connects and republishes. That is a genuine state transition — for that window there
> really is no host — not a glitch worth hiding.
### Operational notes
- **At most one primary host per host id per broker.** Two separate OtOpcUa deployments pointing at one
broker with the same `hostId` will fight, and nothing in either can detect the other. The gate covers
a redundant *pair*, not two independent deployments.
- **A reconnect republishes the birth.** A broker restart drops retained messages; without the
republish the host would be connected and believed offline by everyone, silently.
- **A failed claim never faults the driver.** A broker whose ACL denies `spBv1.0/STATE/#` costs a
warning and a plant-visible missing host, not every tag's value. Ingest is the data plane; the claim
is an assertion to other applications.
- **The driver still observes its own `STATE`.** The ingestor subscribes the configured host id
regardless, so a claiming node sees its own retained `ONLINE` come back. Nothing gates on it, so the
echo costs one log line.
