* test(registry): document cross-platform lock coverage

* fix(registry): isolate the registry lock's namespace, timeout and diagnostics

Review follow-ups on the global registry lock (#2716):

- The lock took `getGlobalDir()` itself, which is byte-identical to a repo's
  index slot when that repo is rooted at the user's home directory (a real
  dotfiles layout). `runFullAnalysis` holds the per-repo lock across its whole
  pipeline and `acquireIndexLock` is not reentrant, so `registerRepo` /
  `adoptFlatBranchLabel` self-deadlocked until the wait ceiling and then failed
  the analyze. The registry now locks a private `<globalDir>/registry-lock`
  namespace no index slot can ever resolve to.

- The lock inherited the index lock's 10-minute default timeout, sized for
  multi-minute analyze runs. `gitnexus augment` — documented to cold-start in
  under 500ms and shelled out from editor tool-use hooks — reaches it through
  `listRegisteredRepos({ validate: true })`. Registry transactions are
  sub-second, so they now get their own 5s ceiling.

- Contention was silent: no `log`/`onWaitStart` was wired, and the primitive's
  own texts attribute a wait to "another gitnexus analyze", which misnames a
  registry holder. A registry-specific line is emitted on wait start instead.

- On timeout the transaction now proceeds unlocked with a warning rather than
  throwing. The lost-update race it guards was unguarded before this branch, so
  degrading to the old best-effort behaviour beats failing `analyze`/`list`/
  `index` outright — none of which wrap these calls in a handler — on a wedged
  lock.

- `adoptFlatBranchLabel`'s recursive `fs.rm` no longer runs inside the lock;
  only the closing re-read/mutate/write does, mirroring `clean.ts`, which
  deletes the branch directory before calling the locked `removeBranchIndex`.
  A slow delete no longer blocks every registry operation on the machine.

* test(registry): cover the remaining locked mutators and the colliding layout

Three of the five functions the registry lock wraps had no overlap coverage, so
a future narrowing of the lock would go unnoticed. Adds:

- overlapping `removeBranchIndex` calls on two branches of one entry,
- an overlapping `unregisterRepo` / `registerRepo` pair on distinct repos,
- a registration issued while an index lock is held on the global directory,
  which reproduces the home-rooted self-contention the lock namespace fix
  addresses.

Each fails without the corresponding fix: the two overlap tests lose an update
when `withRegistryLock` is bypassed, and the collision test sees the wait
announcement and the degraded-write warning once the lock namespace is reverted
to `getGlobalDir()`. The collision test asserts on those log records rather
than on elapsed time, so it stays deterministic on a slow runner.

* perf(registry): keep the validation walk out of the registry lock

`listRegisteredRepos({ validate: true })` held the global lock across its
read-only validation walk — an `fs.access` per entry, slow on a network mount
or a large registry — even though the common case prunes nothing and writes
nothing. That is the same lock `gitnexus augment` takes on every editor tool
call, so unrelated registry work serialized behind a walk that never touched
the file.

The walk now runs unlocked; the lock is taken only when an entry is provably
gone, and the prune is applied to a snapshot re-read inside it, so a
registration that lands during the walk is no longer clobbered by a stale
write. Same shape as the `adoptFlatBranchLabel` split.
