booter: apply 20-point Holepunch resilience and observability upgrades

add grouped retry orchestration, duplicate arbitration hardening, and transport-aware peer scoring
expand IPC with readiness gates, soft backpressure, request deadlines, batching, and method circuit-breakers
strengthen worker/control-plane lifecycle via idempotent termination, orphan detection, and liveness checkpoint helpers
improve lifecycle correctness with state-machine + transactional hook infrastructure and adaptive quiesce utilities
enrich operator surfaces/tests for degraded readiness, crash-safe telemetry patterns, and contract-level regressions
