fix(controller): close 6 data-safety races + apply-pump O(N^2) regression + boot TOCTOU

Bundles the fixes validated this session across ha.c/persist.c/worker.c:

- raft-apply-decoupling Task 7.4: apply-pump O(N^2) throughput regression
  fixed via a segment-read cache.
- bug-1416: boot-time TOCTOU race in persist_verify_apply_correctness()
  closed with a recovery-complete gate that closes at process-lifecycle
  start, not function entry.
- bug-451: HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE now has its own persist hook arm
  instead of silently falling through the default job-state case.
- bug-1426: trim_wal_segments() also caps its trim floor at the local
  apply pump's own progress, not just remote standby-acked positions.
- bug-1427: persist_verify_apply_correctness() extended with a worker-count
  check mirroring the existing job-count check (count_jobmgr_entries and
  count_workermgr_entries now share one count_manager_entries(var) helper).
- bug-1428: persist_register_pending_apply's critical section widened to
  close the actual race instead of patching a symptom.
- bug-1472 (remainder): WORKER_DEAD replay in worker_from_capnp() now
  applies mark_worker_unavail()'s mutations via a shared
  apply_worker_dead_mutation() helper instead of duplicating them.
- bug-1474 (angle-a): on_standby_connected's stale-duplicate detection
  fixed for promoted vote endpoints via a shared votes_idx_for_peer()
  index-scale converter.

Each fix independently verified via TDD (RED before fix, GREEN after).
Full ASAN rebuild + controller_unit_test: 1101 tests, 0 failures. Live
single-node HA deployment validated Task 7.4 and bug-1416 across 5
restart/recovery cycles (45/45 job submissions, zero APPLY_DIVERGENT
fences).
