DanConwayDevandClaude Fable 5.1 0c755beb44 test(sync): await connection attempts instead of status notifications
Five sync tests waited for relay connections with
connect().and_wait(30 s). That call checks the relay status and then
subscribes to status notifications; a loopback connection that completes
between the two is never observed, and the caller sleeps for the whole
timeout. Under scheduler pressure this turns a sub-millisecond connect into
a 30 s stall.

Use the shared connect_client helper, which awaits the connection attempts
through try_connect and fails the test if any relay refuses.

Validation: the sync test binary passed (114 tests, 1 ignored) after the
change; formatting and all-targets Clippy with warnings denied pass.

//! Purgatory Git Fetch Strategy Tests
//!
//! Regression coverage for a production failure observed on gitnostr.com
//! (2026-08-05, 07:56–08:41 UTC window): purgatory git sync requested every
//! needed commit id as an explicit want in a single
//! `git fetch <url> <oid1> <oid2> …`. When the remote's upload-pack rejected
//! one want with "not our ref", the retry loop parsed that single oid out of
//! stderr, removed it, and re-sent the entire remaining batch. Against the
//! `market` repository — whose state event declares ~470 ref tips that exist
//! on no reachable server — this produced a sorted oid-by-oid crawl:
//! 4,521 `Git upload-pack failed after streaming stdout: … not our ref`
//! errors in 45 minutes on the serving side, one failed upload-pack round
//! trip per missing tip with O(N²) want retransmission, and nothing fetched
//! until the loop had crawled through every missing oid.
//!
//! The agreed fix compares the remote's advertised ref list (`git ls-remote`
//! through the same hardened subprocess machinery) against the needed oids
//! first, batch-fetches only advertised tips (always valid wants, so
//! "not our ref" cannot occur for them), and only then requests residual
//! oids one at a time so a single missing object cannot fail a batch.
//!
//! The scenario drives the real purgatory sync path end to end: a genuine
//! ngit-grasp relay serves a repository with two real branch tips behind a
//! counting proxy, and the relay under test holds a state event declaring
//! those two tips plus eight tips that exist nowhere (mirroring `market`).
//! The proxy records every upload-pack POST with its `want` lines, so the
//! test can assert the shape of the outbound fetching, not just the result.
