fix: CP13-6 rev2 — upgrade all 3 retention tests to hard assertions, block-size-aware budget

Three fixes:
1. TestWalRetention_RequiredReplicaBlocksReclaim: rewritten from log-only
   placeholder to hard assertion (checkpointLSN <= replicaFlushedLSN)
2. TestWalRetention_TimeoutTriggersNeedsRebuild: rewritten from log-only
   to hard assertion (State() == NeedsRebuild after 1ns timeout)
3. EvaluateRetentionBudgets: uses RetentionBudgetParams struct with
   actual BlockSize from volume config instead of hardcoded 4096

All 3 retention tests now have real state/progress assertions.
No placeholder or log-only evidence remains in CP13-6 proof package.

# CP13-6 Replica-Aware WAL Retention — Contract Review + Proof Package
Date: 2026-04-03
Code change: `shipper_group.go` EvaluateRetentionBudgets + `blockvol.go` caller updates + test fix
Code change: `shipper_group.go` EvaluateRetentionBudgets (params struct + block-size-aware) + `blockvol.go` caller updates + 3 tests rewritten with hard assertions

## What Changed
**`shipper_group.go`:** `EvaluateRetentionBudgets` now takes `maxBytes` and `primaryHeadLSN` params.
Checks each recoverable replica: if `(primaryHeadLSN - replicaFlushedLSN) * 4KB > maxBytes`,
transitions to `NeedsRebuild`. This is a real state effect, not a log-only placeholder.
**`shipper_group.go`:** `EvaluateRetentionBudgets` now takes `RetentionBudgetParams` struct
with `Timeout`, `MaxBytes`, `PrimaryHeadLSN`, and `BlockSize` (from volume config).
Max-bytes lag computed as `entryLag * BlockSize`, not hardcoded 4096.
Both timeout and max-bytes checks transition to `NeedsRebuild` with real state effects.
**`blockvol.go`:** Callers updated to pass `walRetentionMaxBytes` (64MB) and `v.nextLSN.Load()-1`.
**`blockvol.go`:** Added `walRetentionMaxBytes` (64MB default). Callers pass `RetentionBudgetParams`
with actual `v.super.BlockSize`.
**`sync_all_protocol_test.go`:** `TestWalRetention_MaxBytesTriggersNeedsRebuild` rewritten from
PASS* (log-only) to real PASS: asserts `s.State() == ReplicaNeedsRebuild` after max-bytes exceeded.
**`sync_all_protocol_test.go`:** All 3 retention tests rewritten with hard assertions (no log-only placeholders).
