Task 5.4 blocked (requires live /xce-deploy-ha cluster — manual only).
Task 5.5: 308 assertions across 45 tests pass; ASAN leaks are pre-existing
in election-iomgr-refactor tests, zero new leaks from this feature.
Standby sends WalAckReply via xce_reply after each successfully
applied WAL entry. ha_apply_wal_catchup_entry signature extended
with endpoint_t* and cluster_t* parameters. walackreplymsg union
arm added to RequestReply capnp schema and xce_reply_t. Error
entries skip ACK. Dispatch gate test confirms OPCode_walCatchupEntry
allowed in CTRL_STANDBY/ELECTING/INIT.
