test(tst-24): drive the .NET and Python clients against real in-process gRPC servers
ci / nightly-windev (push) Has been skipped
ci / java (push) Successful in 2m19s
ci / portable (push) Successful in 23m59s
ci / windows-x86 (push) Failing after 58m42s

TST-24 asked for per-client wire tests against a fake gateway. An audit first
corrected the finding's premise: Go, Rust, and Java already had them — bufconn,
a loopback tonic server, and InProcessServerBuilder respectively — each already
asserting the round trip, the server-observed bearer header, and the ReplayGap
sentinel. The two genuine gaps were .NET (every test substituted the transport
interface; the test project had no server package at all) and Python (stub
monkeypatching everywhere but one opt-in TLS test).

Both now serve mxaccess_gateway.v1.MxAccessGateway over a real transport —
Kestrel h2c and grpc.aio, each on an ephemeral loopback port — and drive the
ordinary public client API against it. Only the gateway's behaviour is canned;
the framing, serialization, metadata, and status codes are genuine. Four shapes
each: full round trip with every reply field asserted, the authorization header
as received by the server (including on the streaming RPC), the ReplayGap
sentinel surfaced as the client's typed signal, and a real PERMISSION_DENIED
mapping to the typed authorization error.

The .NET client was only ever compiled in CI, never tested, so the portable job
gains a dotnet test step.

Fixes a bug the new tests caught on their first run: Python's connect() built the
grpc.aio channel inside asyncio.to_thread, and a grpc.aio channel binds to the
event loop current on the constructing thread, so every non-stub connection
raised 'There is no current event loop in thread'. No mock-based test could see
it, and the test guarding the off-loop behaviour patched create_channel and so
asserted the bug. Split resolve_channel_security (blocking TOFU probe, off-loop)
from create_channel (on-loop); the guard tests now assert both halves.
