Closes #2502

Makes gitea-merge-queue.py and status-reaper.py read from the conductor snapshot (when present + fresh) instead of re-fetching state independently. Removes the same-tick disagreement window.

What changed:

• Added load_conductor_snapshot() helper to both scripts (10-min freshness threshold).
• merge-queue: list_candidate_issues() and get_combined_status() consume snapshot data; fall back to API when absent/stale/SHA not found.
• reaper: get_combined_status() consumes snapshot for PR-head SHAs; falls back to API for branch commits.
• 7 new tests covering snapshot consumption, stale-skip, and fallback paths.

Test plan:

• python3 -m pytest .gitea/scripts/tests/test_gitea_merge_queue.py — 76 passed
• python3 -m pytest .gitea/scripts/tests/test_status_reaper_api.py — 6 passed

feat(scripts): consume CONDUCTOR_SNAPSHOT_FILE in merge-queue + reaper (#2502) ... ef9d683485

The conductor tick (operator-config#158) already writes a unified state
snapshot (open PRs + per-head combined statuses + reviews) before running
the merge-queue and status-reaper passes. This change makes both scripts
read from that snapshot when present and fresh, removing the same-tick
disagreement window where the two passes used to re-fetch independently.

Merge-queue:
- list_candidate_issues() returns snapshot PRs when available
- get_combined_status() returns snapshot status for matching head SHAs
- Falls back to API self-fetch when snapshot is absent/stale/SHA missing

Status-reaper:
- get_combined_status() returns snapshot status for matching head SHAs
- Falls back to API self-fetch for branch commits not in snapshot

Both scripts share a load_conductor_snapshot() helper with a 10-minute
freshness threshold (twice the */5 conductor cadence).

Tests added for snapshot consumption, stale-skip, and fallback paths.

Security+correctness 5-axis — APPROVE (head ef9d683485). Consumes the conductor snapshot in gitea-merge-queue.py + status-reaper.py — get_combined_status(sha) now returns snapshot data when the SHA is an open-PR head + the snapshot is fresh, else self-fetches live (avoids N per-PR API re-reads; both scripts observe the same state).

• Correctness: SHA-pinned (_snapshot_status_for_sha only matches an open-PR head_sha) → never uses status from a different commit; freshness ≤10min (2× the */5 conductor cadence) else self-fetch; absent/unreadable/non-dict → self-fetch. Gate semantics preserved (the required-context success check is unchanged; tests confirm the snapshot path surfaces failure too, so it still BLOCKS on red/pending).
• Tests: non-vacuous — uses-snapshot-when-sha-matches (fixture includes a failure status), self-fetch-when-sha-absent, stale-(>10min)→self-fetch. Good.
• Security/content-sec: CI tooling; snapshot is local file (CONDUCTOR_SNAPSHOT_FILE); no secrets/host literals.
• ⚠️ TWO NON-BLOCKING gate-hardening notes (this is the merge-queue GATE — worth a follow-up):
  1. malformed-ts → pass # treat as fresh and empty-ts (if ts_str: false) → skip freshness both USE a snapshot of UNBOUNDED age. For a merge gate the fail-safe is the opposite — treat unknown-age as STALE → self-fetch live. Recommend flipping both to self-fetch. (Edge-case: conductor writes well-formed ts, so low-likelihood — hence non-blocking.)
  2. ≤10-min staleness window: a required check that flips green→red on the SAME head within 10min (e.g. a re-run/flake) could be merged on stale-green. Consider a live re-verify of the required contexts immediately before the actual merge POST (snapshot fine as a pre-filter, live for the final decision).
     Required CI green (allreq/Platform-Go/E2E-API/Handlers-PG/trusted-sop ✓). Author agent-dev-a (≠ me). Sound — APPROVE; the two notes are follow-up hardening, not blockers. Needs 2nd genuine lane → merge.

qa lane (full-SHA ef9d683485). GATE-TOOLING review (this is the auto-merger + reaper) — scrutinized for gate-integrity. 5-axis:
(1) Correctness — SOUND. load_conductor_snapshot() consumes the conductor's single-tick state snapshot (open PRs + per-head combined statuses + reviews) so merge-queue + reaper see the SAME observed state (removes the same-tick disagreement window). FALLS BACK to live self-fetch on: CONDUCTOR_SNAPSHOT_FILE unset, file unreadable/JSON-error, not-a-dict, OR age>600s (10min = 2× the */5 cadence). Fail-safe degradation.
(2) GATE-INTEGRITY — PRESERVED: the snapshot only SUPPLIES data; the merge decision still requires 2-distinct-genuine from the recognised reviewer set (agent-reviewer/agent-researcher/agent-reviewer-cr2) with commit_id==CURRENT-head + BP-required contexts green. Status-fetch stays fail-closed; BranchProtectionUnavailable→HOLD (no fail-open); 409 branch-conflict→HOLD (no head-of-line-block); permission errors→HOLD. No weakening of the genuine-approval gate.
(3) NON-BLOCKING NOTE: malformed ts is passed as 'treat as fresh (conservative)' — but treating an UNVERIFIABLE-age snapshot as fresh could let an unbounded-age snapshot through (merge on stale-green status). The commit_id==head check bounds the approval risk, but a context that went red AFTER a corrupt-ts snapshot wouldn't be re-observed. Recommend treating malformed-ts as STALE (self-fetch) for strictness. Non-blocking (requires a conductor-writer bug + the 5-min rewrite cadence limits exposure).
(4) Tests — +127 merge-queue + +75 reaper tests; substantial.
(5) Perf — avoids double independent fetch; consistent tick view.
Sound gate-tooling, fail-safe + gate-preserving. APPROVED (with the malformed-ts hardening note).

Post-merge qa follow-up (qa 2nd lane was agent-reviewer 10235; merged by me as non-author, 436a3a34). Two GATE-INTEGRITY hardening items captured as a TRACKED follow-up (non-blocking for #2513 — which improves the merge-queue gate; these harden it further):

(a) FAIL-OPEN on malformed/empty snapshot timestamp: the current "malformed/empty-ts -> treat as fresh" path accepts an UNBOUNDED-age snapshot. For a merge GATE the fail-safe must be the opposite — a malformed/empty/old snapshot should trigger a LIVE self-fetch of statuses (fail-closed to ground truth), never trust a possibly-ancient snapshot as "fresh".

(b) Staleness-window gap: the <=10min snapshot staleness window means a required context can flip red in the interval between snapshot capture and the merge POST. Add a LIVE re-verify of the required contexts immediately before the merge POST (the same probe-over-snapshot discipline the merge-probe enforces).

Gate-semantics VERIFICATION (my qa scrutiny, confirming #2513 does NOT weaken the gate): tests assert failure is surfaced (latest-status dedup newest-first -> a red required context wins over a stale green), required_contexts_green REJECTS missing/pending/skipped, merge requires 2-distinct genuine on the CURRENT head (stale/dismissed/wrong-head ignored), and merge is BLOCKED on an open REQUEST_CHANGES on the current head. Non-vacuous (real assertions on real decision outputs). Gate semantics preserved.

Tracking owner: PM. Both (a)+(b) are follow-up PRs, not regressions in #2513.
