blob: size-based LRU eviction + auto-cap in the GC ticker

Orphan-chunk GC alone doesn't stop unbounded growth: as long as
fingerprint→blob refs keep getting PutRef'd, the manifest set keeps
growing and no chunk is ever an orphan.

* `BlobStore::evict_to_size_cap(max_bytes)` — walks manifests oldest
  first by mtime, deletes them, refcount-decrements each chunk they
  used, unlinks + reclaims size for any chunk whose refcount hits
  zero. Shared chunks stay put until the last blob referencing them
  is evicted.
* `ManifestSummary` internal type keeps the diff-set bookkeeping
  cheap (one HashMap<ChunkHash, u32>, no repeated tree walks).
* `claw-store cluster-gc --evict-to-gb <N>` extends the CLI: still
  runs the orphan sweep first, then optionally caps the store.
* Config: `cluster.blob_max_gb: Option<u64>`. The auto-GC ticker
  runs eviction after every orphan sweep when this is set. Silent
  when the store is already under cap; INFO log when it evicts.

+3 tests:
- evict_to_size_cap_reclaims_oldest_blobs_first: 3 blobs with
  distinct mtimes, cap below combined size → oldest evicted,
  newer blobs survive
- evict_keeps_shared_chunks_when_still_referenced: guards the
  refcount decrement path (content-addressed dedup keeps identical
  content as one blob → chunk survives until manifest deleted)
- evict_on_empty_store_is_a_noop: sanity

257 tests pass (baseline +3). Pre-existing macOS failure unchanged.
