Phase 1d: persistent NodeIdentity + FleetCa + fleet-ca CLI

Closes out Phase 1. A production operator can now cut a fleet CA, sign per-node leaves, drop the resulting PEMs at /etc/claw-store/tls/, point [cluster.tls] at them, and the daemon loads real mTLS material on startup — no more ephemeral in-process CA hack. New public API in cluster::transport: - FleetCa::generate(cn) — new self-signed root CA - FleetCa::save(dir) / FleetCa::load(dir) — round-trip PEM - FleetCa::sign_leaf(name) — mint an in-memory NodeIdentity - FleetCa::sign_leaf_to_pem(name, out_dir) — write ca.crt + node.crt + node.key (node.key at 0o600 on Unix) - NodeIdentity::from_pem_files(ca, cert, key) — production load path - NodeIdentity::from_pem_dir(dir) — canonical filename layout - NodeIdentity::from_cluster_config(cfg) — pick up [cluster.tls] paths Manual Debug for FleetCa redacts the private key. Config extension: - [cluster.tls] ca_cert / node_cert / node_key (all PathBuf). - Optional at the top level; callers that need mTLS surface a clear error when it's absent. Deps: - rcgen features += "x509-parser" (for FleetCa::load's from_ca_cert_pem). - rustls-pemfile 2 (parse PEM back into DER for rustls). CLI (new commands; short-circuit config load so they run on fresh boxes without /etc/claw-store/config.toml): - fleet-ca-init --dir <dir> [--cn <name>] generates ca.crt + ca.key (both 0o600). - fleet-ca-sign --ca-dir <dir> --node <name> --out-dir <dir> writes ca.crt + node.crt + node.key (node.key at 0o600). - cluster-ping now accepts --tls-dir <dir> to load persistent NodeIdentity from disk (produced by fleet-ca-sign). Tests (8 new, all real — no mocks, real filesystem, real TLS handshake): - fleet_ca_rejects_empty_common_name - fleet_ca_save_and_load_round_trip_preserves_signing (asserts 0o600 on ca.key) - fleet_ca_load_errors_when_files_missing - sign_leaf_to_pem_writes_all_three_files_with_correct_permissions (asserts 0o600 on node.key) - persistent_identity_round_trips_through_disk_and_pings — end-to-end: cut CA on disk, reload it, sign two leaves via sign_leaf_to_pem, reload them via from_pem_dir, run real QUIC ping/pong. This is the operator flow. - node_identity_from_cluster_config_errors_without_tls_section - node_identity_from_cluster_config_loads_pem_paths - from_pem_files_errors_on_missing_ca_file 80 tests pass. Pre-existing macOS-only hot test unchanged. Also verified live CLI smoke test: fleet-ca-init → ca.crt + ca.key at 0o600 fleet-ca-sign → ca.crt + node.crt + node.key at 0o600 Files parse as valid X.509. File sizes (all under 1300-line ceiling): - cluster/transport.rs: 916 - cluster/gossip.rs: 576 - cluster.rs: 275 - config.rs: 503 - main.rs: 662 Phase 1 complete. Next up: - Phase 1e (daemon integration): gossip + QUIC RPC server wired into claw-store daemon; hot-tier metrics periodically pushed; a real PeerStatus RPC alongside ping. - Phase 2: content-addressed blob store (BLAKE3 chunking, put/get).
