* raft_sim_scenario_restart_churn: process-restart scenario (raft-sim-conformance
* task 5.2; Req 4.2). Initializes the caller's cluster from (n, election_timeout=2000,
* seed), then:
* 1. drives it to a single leader + a committed prefix,
* 2. MID-replication, restarts one or more nodes (raft_sim_restart_node) — a follower
* holding a partial log AND the leader (forcing a re-election). The persisted
* (term, votedFor, log) survives each restart (task 4.3 guarantees this); the
* restart resets only volatile state to a fresh FOLLOWER,
* 3. re-elects if the leader was restarted, replicates more, and PROPAGATES COMMIT
* (a follow-up AppendEntries round carrying the higher leader_commit) so the
* restarted nodes catch up and their committed/applied prefix advances.
* raft_sim_check_all is run after EVERY action it applies — DURING and after the churn —
* so a violation is caught the moment it appears. Returns 0 if the scenario completes
* with ZERO invariant violations; < 0 (the negated first failing invariant, matching
* raft_sim_step) on any violation, after dumping the replayable trace to stderr. Returns
* -1 on an invalid node count (n < 3). Drives only via published library entry points +
* harness primitives — no protocol re-implementation.

* The library is correct (bug-1095/1096 fixed), so a faithful restart-churn MUST
* complete with zero violations: a return < 0 here is a REAL divergence the scenario
* surfaced (the step already dumped the replayable trace to stderr) — NOT something
* to mask by hand-picking a seed. Several (n, seed) combinations are exercised so the
