drjones 868d82794d Add test suite (164 tests); reclaim VRAM from ComfyUI when an LLM will not fit ...

Tests. First automated coverage for the project: 164 tests, 2.7s, no GPU or network.
An autouse fixture stubs overclock_manager._sh -- the single choke point for every
nvidia-smi/nvidia-settings write -- so no test can mutate the card. They deliberately
pin the empirically measured constants that would otherwise rot silently: the cold and
warm load figures behind the cache-hit thresholds, the warm_confident residency rule,
and the busy/stalled yield split. One test asserts RAM_HIT_GBPS stays at or below the
measured 2.63 GB/s warm load, so the old physically unreachable 5.0 GB/s bar cannot
come back.

Three bugs the suite surfaced, now fixed:
- autotune._subsample(values, 1) divided by zero; the early return only covered
  len(values) <= max_steps.
- telemetry_store.stop() flushed its local pending list but never drained the queue,
  silently losing rows submitted just before a shutdown -- exactly when the last
  events matter.
- ram_optimizer.page_residency's zero-byte short-circuit omitted keys every other
  return path provides, so a 0-byte file was planned for warming.

Reclaim. The README has claimed bidirectional arbitration from the start, but only one
direction was ever automatic. Establishing what actually happens took a controlled test
with the service stopped: with ComfyUI holding 6.83 GB, Ollama does not spill to the CPU
on this box -- it aborts with "cudaMalloc failed: out of memory", because n_gpu_layers is
pinned to 99 and it will not reduce the layer count. So both failure modes are handled:
_check_ollama_starved watches size_vram < size for the default configuration where Ollama
does spill, and switch_ollama_model catches the hard OOM, reclaims VRAM from an idle
ComfyUI and retries once. The request that returned HTTP 500 from Ollama directly now
succeeds through HyperSwap, loading at 3.85 GB/s after reclaiming 6.83 GB.
