Backend now tracks last-seq as a monotonic high-water mark (survives
truncation) and exposes :truncate-through. compaction.sx: persist/compact
checkpoints then drops events with seq <= snapshot seq; should-compact?/
maybe-compact give an explicit every-N policy. Determinism: post-compaction
replay value == uncompacted full replay. Phase 3 complete, 76/76.
