test(drift): quarantine S4 value-vs-value — genuine ~5-8% divergence, own hunt

Two clients racing setValue genuinely diverge in ~5-8% of runs:
settleConverged times out at 90s with the trio never reaching byte equality.
Not timing (windows already widened, reproduces locally at single-worker) and
not the asyncify guards (zero beacons in failing runs) — a real CRDT/apply
race this harness exists to catch, gating unrelated releases in the meantime.
Extracted into its own test.fixme (S4b) with the full original body;
move-vs-delete and move-vs-move stay active in S4. Tracking notes: memory
s4-value-race-divergence — next steps are capturing both tabs' modelText diff
at timeout and bisecting the value-apply path.
