test(e2e): Minions v7 concurrency + OpenClaw resilience coverage

minions-concurrency.test.ts spins two MinionWorker instances against the
test Postgres, submits 20 jobs, and asserts zero double-claims (every job
runs exactly once). This is the only test that actually proves FOR UPDATE
SKIP LOCKED under real concurrency — PGLite runs on a single connection
and can't exercise the race.

minions-resilience.test.ts covers the six OpenClaw daily pains:
1. Spawn storm caps enforce under concurrent submit. 2. Agent stall →
handleStalled() requeues; handleTimeouts() skips (lock_until guard).
3. Forgotten dispatches recoverable via child_done inbox. 4. Cascade
cancel stops grandchildren mid-flight. 5. Deep tree fan-in
(parent → 3 children → 2 grandchildren each) completes with the full
inbox chain. 6. Parent crash/recovery resumes from persisted state.

helpers.ts extends ALL_TABLES with minion_attachments, minion_inbox, and
minion_jobs (FK dependents first) so E2E teardown doesn't leak rows
between runs.

/**
* E2E Minions Concurrency Test — Tier 1 (no API keys required)
*
* Proves `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` correctness under real concurrent claim.
* Two MinionWorker instances on separate connection pools race to claim
* 20 jobs. Every job must run exactly once: zero double-claims, zero misses.
*
* The PGLite unit tests can't verify this — PGLite runs on a single
* connection so SKIP LOCKED effectively serializes. This test is the only
* one that exercises real PG-level concurrency.
*
* Run: DATABASE_URL=... bun test test/e2e/minions-concurrency.test.ts
