feat(ha): implement Tier 1 Active-Passive Global Sentinel Actualization

This commit mathematically actualizes the physical kinetic laws proven during the DigitalOcean 3-node HA deployment test across the QuanuX Control Plane. 

It fulfills the strict requirements for an Institutional infrastructure audit (9.0 standard) by implementing a precise distributed state machine leveraging NATS JetStream KV locking.

Key Implementations:
1. **The Sentinel Loop (server/ha/sentinel.py)**: Built `GlobalSentinelLoop` directly into the FastAPI `@asynccontextmanager` lifespan. Implements "The Law of Verified Death" ensuring a Follower mathematically guarantees the OOB hardware STONITH Apoptosis on the fallen leader before accepting the `quanux.tier1.leader` lock, effectively eliminating Split-Brain.
2. **The Architect's Override (cli/cluster.py)**: Designed a Typer CLI managing cluster commands (`status`, `promote`, `demote`, `fence`) to allow manual routing intercepts over the Raft consensus.
3. **Execution Harness (tests/chaos_harness/)**: Created an executable 3-node topology simulation (`leader`, `follower`, `nest`) to run local partition tests. Resolved the "Control Plane Genesis" race condition so the `nest.py` (Tier 4 node) gracefully enters "The Long-Dark" if it boots before the `quanux_tier1` NATS bucket is initialized.
4. **Institutional Runbooks & Docs**: 
    - Published official HA SLOs (5s Heartbeat, 2000ms Fencing, 3-180s Convergence) in `high_availability.md`.
    - Generated a 3:00 AM Sysadmin Panic runbook (`HA_RUNBOOK.md`) with explicit troubleshooting sequences.
    - Added the `quanuxctl-cluster.1.md` man pages for operations overview.
    - Codified the "Long-Dark" and "Genesis Race Condition" into the AI agent skills (`tier1_ha_skill.md`, `tier1_ops_skill.md`).
