giles d481af5791 fed-sx-m2: Step 5c — peer-actors cache + 19 tests ...

New next/kernel/peer_actors.erl is the federation-side cache for
{PeerActorId, PeerActorState} entries. PeerAS is exactly the shape
envelope:verify_signature/2 reads (proplist with :public_keys), so
the inbox handler can pipe the cache hit straight into
pipeline:validate_inbound/3 from Step 5b.

Pure-functional API:
  new/0
  lookup/2(PeerId, State) -> {ok, PeerAS} | not_found
  store/3(PeerId, PeerAS, State) -> NewState
  evict/2(PeerId, State) -> NewState
  peers/1(State) -> [PeerId]
  lookup_or_fetch/3(PeerId, FetchFn, State)
      -> {ok, PeerAS, NewState}      cache hit returns unchanged State,
                                     miss stores FetchFn result.
      | {error, Reason, State}        FetchFn failure preserves cache.
      | {error, {bad_fetch_return, X}, State}

FetchFn contract: (PeerId) -> {ok, PeerAS} | {error, Reason}.
Failed fetches do NOT poison the cache so callers can retry on
transient HTTP failures.

gen_server wrapper (registered name peer_actors):
  start_link/0,1   start_link/1 accepts initial proplist for fixtures
  stop/0
  lookup_srv/1
  store_srv/2
  lookup_or_fetch_srv/2
  peers_srv/0
  evict_srv/1

handle_call dispatches mirror the pure-fn paths exactly.

The actual HTTP-GET fetch implementation (peer's actor doc -> peer
AS proplist) is Step 5d's responsibility — for 5c, FetchFn is just
the contract callers fill in.

19/19 in next/tests/peer_actors.sh:
  - new/0 -> []
  - lookup miss -> not_found
  - store + lookup round-trip
  - peers/1 in insertion order
  - evict + evict-unknown no-op
  - lookup_or_fetch miss invokes FetchFn, hits cache after
  - lookup_or_fetch hit skips FetchFn (verified by tombstone fn)
  - fetch error preserves cache state
  - bad fetch return shape captured
  - gen_server start_link + miss/hit/fetch/evict round-trips
  - start_link/1 pre-populates cache from initial state

Conformance 761/761. 139/139 across 9 Step-5-adjacent suites
(inbox_pipeline, inbox_bucket, pipeline_signature, registry_server,
projection_server, nx_kernel_multi, bootstrap_start, http_publish,
smoke_app_pure, plus the new peer_actors).
