Replace no-send stub with real WAL entry transmission via
xce_wal_batch_req_raw. For each non-catch-up registered standby,
serialize the entry header+payload into a wal_catchup_entry_t
and enqueue. Keep the MAX_PENDING_ACKS eviction guard.
5 new tests: no-standbys, one-standby-send, skip-catch-up,
evict-overloaded, send-failure-continues. Controller suite green.

Appended "Gap Analysis — Validation Pass (2026-06-09)" to each spec's
research.md with requirement-to-asset maps, status tags, and effort/risk.
Key outcomes:
- ha-repl-hardening: REOPENED with task series 7.1-7.7 — replication
payload data plane is missing (snapshot chunks and WAL catch-up ship
header-only; standbys converge on LSN without holding entity state)
- worker-join-refactor, resval-id-decoupling: marked implemented
(all criteria re-verified, full test suite green)
- buglog: 335/336 (scheduler dequeue, open), 337/338/339 (fixed in
previous commit); cerebrum Decision Log corrected (term-only vote
deny was recorded as intentional but was a regression)
