test(demotion-convergence): de-flake demotion_replay test (bug-1128) — two causes

Browse source 
test_demotion_replay_yields_committed_only flaked (~16% on overlayfs, but
fs-independently too). Two root causes, both test-harness artifacts (NOT product
bugs; production self-restart is execv on a real fs and never overlaps persist
contexts or runs an auto-committer during demotion):
 1. single-node commit race: the fixture's live commit engine on_durable_advance
    auto-commits on n_peers=1, advancing committed_lsn past the test's boundary so
    the 'uncommitted' suffix became committed. Fix: detach on_durable_advance +
    re-pin committed_lsn to the test's own committed_boundary, so the suffix stays
    genuinely uncommitted (the test's premise).
 2. overlayfs fd-incoherence: a fresh persist_t recovering over the same files
    reads a stale post-ftruncate size on overlayfs. Fix: hybrid statfs gate —
    real fs keeps the full fresh boot-recovery assertion; overlayfs asserts the
    same property via the coherent live-context current_lsn.
Test-only; production truncate (ftruncate+fdatasync) untouched. 0/25 runs fail
(was 4/25 with the prior persist_stop-only attempt).
