fix: restore path end-to-end — sha256, S3 key, round-trip test

Closes the three review BLOCKERs that broke the flagship restore feature
end-to-end (v1.3.0 and earlier shipped a restore path that silently
fails — empty POST to /v1/upload/request means the server records
sha256=NULL and hydration refuses to install with HYDRATION_ERR_PROTO).

B1 (sha256 never sent):
- class.c get_signed_url now accepts a sha256 parameter and POSTs
  {"sha256":"..."} to /v1/upload/request so the server records
  the digest in the snapshots table.
- class.c run_hourly_backup computes ark_sha256_hex_file of the
  backup file before any upload attempt.

B2 (direct-S3 wrong key + no CP registration):
- Direct-S3 s3_key changed from backups/<filename> to tenant-scoped
  db_<db_id>/backup.sqlite (the server already uses this key for the
  presigned-URL path — both paths now land at the same S3 prefix,
  and the db_id prefix isolates tenants in the shared bucket).
- After a successful direct-S3 upload, register_snapshot_with_cp
  POSTs {"sha256":"..."} to /v1/snapshot/register so the server
  records the snapshot row for hydrate plans.

B3 (server synthesised bogus URL → 404 → client masked as cold start):
- server handleHydratePlan returns 404 when no snapshot row exists
  (previously synthesised a URL to a non-existent S3 key, which the
  client downloaded → S3 404 → hydrated an empty DB → reported OK).
- hydration.c http_get_string maps HTTP 404 → HYDRATION_ERR_NOTFOUND
  (was mapping to HYDRATION_ERR_NET) so plan-404 correctly signals
  'no snapshot' rather than looking like a network error.

Test suite — 3 new round-trip restore tests in test_hydration.c:
- test_round_trip_restore_happy_path: mock CP+S3 serve a plan with
  correct sha256 + the file, client downloads, verifies sha256,
  installs, asserts restored data matches.
- test_round_trip_sha256_mismatch: mock plan has wrong sha256,
  client refuses with HYDRATION_ERR_PROTO.
- test_round_trip_cold_start: mock plan has no sha256, client
  returns HYDRATION_ERR_PROTO (correct security posture; real cold
  start requires sha256-present + 404 on snapshot download).

All three test the full download→verify→install pipeline that had
zero coverage before. The existing mock_plan_server was enhanced to
serve snapshot files and include sha256 in the plan.

Verification: 14/14 ctest, 25/25 hydrate tests, 10/10 node tests,
go test server passed.
