fix(e2e): third pass — harden the last 4 chronic/flaky e2e gates

- agent-session-live-force-exit-resume: raise persisted-record poll 15s→30s
  (two-stage debounced write + main scheduleSave needs headroom under the CI
  event-loop starvation that also drifts renderer timers ~1s in this shard);
  on miss, dump store vs disk state to distinguish a lost write from slow flush.
- artificial-opencode-terminal-load: add MAX_TIMER_DRIFT_UNDER_LOAD_MS (2.5s)
  for the injected-load scenarios, mirroring MAX_WORST_KEY_LATENCY_UNDER_LOAD_MS;
  baseline single-terminal gate stays at 250ms.
- combined-diff-scroll-restore: converge the after-tab-switch anchor via bounded
  retry (Monaco restores scroll over several layout passes) before asserting;
  a genuine restore miss still fails since the last anchor is returned on timeout.
- terminal-reattach-mouse-mode-leak: poll rAFs until the enable-mouse-events
  class lands after re-arming instead of a single frame (batched xterm render).
