thejayman77 194f45bd05 Ch442 review fixes: fs_edge parity, dest snap_valid, sync attrs + SDC
Codex review containment/observability fixes (no behavior change, no redesign):

- scanout_lb: add !fs_edge_v to the diagnostic predicate so capture
  matches the underflow latch's frame-start CLEAR priority exactly
  (no capture on an fs_edge cycle the real latch suppresses).
- bridge: expose a destination snap_valid_q as 0x120[0] — set ON the
  payload-capture edge, cleared on synced source-valid deassert — so
  valid never leads the bundle by a cycle (was the middle sync stage).
- bridge: forced-synchronizer (SYNCHRONIZER_IDENTIFICATION FORCED) +
  dont_merge/preserve on the underflow/read-error/valid chains;
  preserve on the bundle capture regs (both domains).
- SDC: stage-0 async cuts on the three sync[0] inputs + the 37-bit
  stable bundle hold-false-path + 2ns max_skew + 2ns net_delay, with
  fail-closed src==37 / dst!=0 count checks (tile_ram_cdc idiom).
- tb_gs_scanout_diag: +fs_edge-suppression monitor (with coverage that
  the coincidence is exercised), +valid-ordering monitor, +snapshot
  stability after later misses, +production DUT (V_SOURCE_START=32,
  stretch, linear) proving cold-start scan_y=32, +cause/phase packing.
  32/32 checks pass.
- doc: production cold start is source row 32 (not 0), base+lookahead
  may both assert, and one snapshot narrows but does not prove
  starvation vs next_fetch CDC-lag.

Sim set all PASS: focused TB, tb_ps2_hps_bridge, scanout_lb
{binomial,hstretch,psm32_256}, complete f52 replay (FB byte-identical
Z 0/307200, COLOR 0/245760). No Quartus, board, push, or scanout
behavior change.
