fix(format): refuse object header messages over 64 KiB

A v2 object header message has a 2-byte size field. The writer truncated
larger sizes to 16 bits, so an attribute over ~64 KiB (or a compact
dataset of 65532-65535 bytes, whose layout message adds 4 bytes) produced
a file libhdf5 rejects ("message of unshareable class flagged as
shareable", "bad flag combination").

ObjectHeaderWriter::serialize now returns a Result and fails on any message
over MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE; FileWriter::finish propagates it. Compact storage
falls back to contiguous above 65531 bytes, the real limit. Dense storage
for large attributes remains future work.
