Review R08:1.1: an uncapped HistoryRead-Raw (NumValuesPerNode = 0) read a
tag's whole window into memory on every backend (SQL TOP(int.MaxValue),
QuestDB LIMIT, Gateway max_values = int.MaxValue + a second snapshot copy).
New ServerHistorian:MaxRawValuesPerRead (default 10 000; <= 0 unbounded with
a Validate() warning; 1 raised to 2). Each backend data source takes it,
reports it as IHistorianDataSource.MaxRawValuesPerRead (the Gateway: min
with a strict gateway's learned ceiling), so the node manager's existing
RawPageLimit paging serves N = 0 and N > cap as pages of at most the cap
with a continuation point. Independently, a backend raw read asking for 0
or more than the cap reads cap + 1 rows and is REFUSED
(HistoryReadLimitExceededException => BadTooManyOperations) when the window
holds more - never answered truncated, since the server's paging reads a
short answer as the last page. Bound through the Host registry, the
SqlServer/QuestDb providers and GatewayHistorian.CreateDataSource.
Tests: options (default/binding/warnings), provider binding, Gateway unit +
through a real SDK node manager (uncapped -> 999/998/998/605 + CPs), and a
conformance case for the SQL backends.
