Replace -1 with 0 for the liveness check operation to avoid triggering
digest validation failures. This prevents rare fatal errors when the
cluster is recovering and ensures the test does not violate append_seq
invariants.
The value -1 was causing invalid digest results in the append_seq
structure, leading to assertion failures. This could happen when the
sentinel value was the first (or only) element being appended, resulting
in a digest that did not match the expected value.
By using 0 instead, we ensure that the digest calculations remain valid
and consistent with the expected behavior of the test.
The specific value of the sentinel is not important, as long as it is
a valid elem_t that does not violate the invariants of the append_seq
structure. In particular, the sentinel value is typically used only
when no valid result is received from any server in the current loop
iteration, in which case the loop will retry.
