feat: Phase 10 CP10-3 -- NVMe/TCP Tier 1 optimizations, WAL admission control, benchmark platform

CP10-3 Tier 1 optimizations (T1-T4):
- TCP_NODELAY + 256KB socket buffers on NVMe/TCP connections
- Response batching: all C2H data chunks + CapsuleResp in single flush
- Tiered buffer pool (4KB/64KB/256KB sync.Pool) for write payloads
- Configurable MaxH2CDataLength wiring through controller/IC/chunking

BUG-CP103-1: NVMe write retry with jittered backoff for transient WAL pressure
- writeWithRetry() with bounded backoff [50/200/800ms]
- throttleOnWALPressure() pre-write delay above 90% WAL usage
- WALPressureProvider interface + NVMeAdapter.WALPressure()

BUG-CP103-2: Volume-level WAL admission control
- WALAdmission with counting semaphore (max concurrent writers)
- Soft watermark (0.7): small delay to desynchronize herd
- Hard watermark (0.9): block until flusher drains
- Single-deadline budget shared across watermark wait + semaphore
- Close-aware during both watermark and semaphore waits
- Wired into BlockVol.WriteLBA() and Trim()

Benchmark platform enhancements:
- NVMe benchmark actions and scenarios (A/B, CW sweep, IOQ sweep)
- Database benchmark actions (SQLite, pgbench)
- K8s operator QA reconciler tests
- New testrunner scenarios for HA, fault injection, CSI lifecycle

Test counts: 213 NVMe + 625 engine + operator + testrunner tests, all passing.

+# Operator Gate G4: Ownership and Conflict Safety
+#
+# Tests that the operator correctly handles:
+# 1. Two CRs competing for singleton cluster-scoped resources
+# 2. Label tampering on owned resources
+# 3. Cleanup after conflict
+#
+# The operator uses label-based ownership (not ownerReferences) for
+# cluster-scoped resources. When a second CR tries to create the same
+# CSIDriver/StorageClass, the operator should set ResourceConflict=True
+# and phase=Failed on the second CR.
+#
+# Pass criteria:
+# - First CR reaches Running with CSIReady=True
+# - Second CR gets ResourceConflict condition, phase=Failed
+# - Label tampering on cluster-scoped resource is detected and corrected
+# - Cleanup of first CR removes all owned resources
+# - After cleanup, second CR can reconcile to Running
+#
+# Requires: k3s cluster, operator deployed
