fix: CP13-3 — reject legacy BarrierOK with FlushedLSN=0 in sync_all

Bug: BarrierOK with FlushedLSN == 0 (legacy 1-byte response) was counted
as successful sync_all durability even though no authoritative durable
progress was established. This allowed a legacy replica to silently pass
through the sync_all barrier without proving any LSN was fsynced.

Fix (wal_shipper.go): BarrierOK with FlushedLSN == 0 now returns an
error instead of nil. Barrier success requires the replica to report a
non-zero FlushedLSN proving which LSN was durably persisted. This makes
the code match the CP13-3 contract: replicaFlushedLSN is the sole
authority for sync_all durability.

New test: TestBarrier_LegacyResponseRejectedBySyncAll — proves legacy
1-byte responses don't establish durable authority.

Contract review doc updated to reflect the code fix.

+## Code Change
+
+One targeted fix in `wal_shipper.go`: `BarrierOK` with `FlushedLSN == 0` now returns
+an error instead of counting as successful sync_all durability. This closes the gap
+where a legacy 1-byte barrier response could pass through as durable authority.

 ## What CP13-3 Does NOT Close
 
 - Reconnect/catch-up protocol (CP13-5)
 - WAL retention policy (CP13-6)
 - Rebuild fallback (CP13-7)
 - Replica state machine transitions beyond barrier eligibility (CP13-4)
