Sidecar now serves a length-prefixed, kind-tagged MessagePack pipe protocol
mirroring Galaxy.Host's: 4-byte BE length + 1-byte MessageKind + body, 16 MiB
cap. Hello handshake validates per-process shared secret + protocol major
version + caller SID via ImpersonateNamedPipeClient before any work frame
runs.
Five contract pairs ship in this PR:
ReadRawRequest ↔ ReadRawReply
ReadProcessedRequest ↔ ReadProcessedReply
ReadAtTimeRequest ↔ ReadAtTimeReply
ReadEventsRequest ↔ ReadEventsReply
WriteAlarmEventsRequest ↔ WriteAlarmEventsReply
Timestamps cross the wire as DateTime ticks (long) to dodge MessagePack's
DateTime kind/timezone quirks; both sides convert with DateTime(ticks, Utc).
Sample values cross as MessagePack-serialized byte[] so the .NET 10 client
(PR 3.4) deserializes per the tag's mx_data_type without the sidecar needing
to know OPC UA types.
HistorianFrameHandler dispatches by MessageKind to IHistorianDataSource (the
PR 3.2 lifted interface) for reads, and to a new IAlarmEventWriter strategy
for the alarm-event persistence path. Per-call exceptions surface as
Success=false replies so a single bad request doesn't kill the connection.
WriteAlarmEvents replies carry per-event success flags; the SQLite
store-and-forward sink retries failed slots on the next drain tick.
Program.cs spins the pipe server when OTOPCUA_HISTORIAN_ENABLED=true. Pipe-
only mode (default false) preserves PR 3.1's smoke-test behaviour: the host
still validates env vars and waits for Ctrl-C, but doesn't initialize the
Wonderware SDK.
Sidecar test project gains 8 round-trip tests (37 total now): every contract
pair round-trips through FrameReader/FrameWriter via in-memory streams, the
handler surfaces historian exceptions cleanly, WriteAlarmEvents per-event
status flows through, and the no-writer-configured path returns a clean
error reply.
Added MessagePack 2.5.187 to the sidecar csproj.

Move all historian implementation files from Driver.Galaxy.Host/Backend/Historian/
to Driver.Historian.Wonderware/Backend/. Sidecar now owns the aahClientManaged /
aahClientCommon SDK references; Galaxy.Host project-references the sidecar so
MxAccessGalaxyBackend keeps building until PR 7.2 retires Galaxy.Host entirely.
10 source files moved (preserving git history via git mv):
IHistorianDataSource, HistorianDataSource, HistorianClusterEndpointPicker,
HistorianClusterNodeState, HistorianConfiguration, HistorianEventDto,
HistorianHealthSnapshot, HistorianQualityMapper, HistorianSample,
IHistorianConnectionFactory.
2 historian tests moved alongside (HistorianClusterEndpointPickerTests,
HistorianQualityMapperTests). Sidecar test project now hosts 29 tests (1 PR 3.1
smoke + 28 moved historian tests, all passing).
Galaxy.Host's remaining 6 historian-flavored tests (HistorianWiringTests,
HistoryReadAtTimeTests, HistoryReadEventsTests, HistoryReadProcessedTests)
keep passing via the project reference — using directives updated to reach
the new namespace.
Sidecar deliberately speaks no Core.Abstractions — its surface is the legacy
List<HistorianSample> shape; PR 3.4's .NET 10 client translates to the
Core.Abstractions shapes added in PR 1.1.
