rcourtman 74131e56e3 Fix no-op relationship_change spam from registry rebuilds
Every state update rebuilds the resource registry from scratch, which
reconstructs all relationship edges with fresh ObservedAt/LastSeenAt
stamps and fresh metadata maps. recordRegistryChanges compared the old
and new slices with reflect.DeepEqual, so every relationship-bearing
resource emitted a relationship_change row on every rebuild cycle even
when nothing changed. On the public demo this wrote roughly 450k rows
per day (1.2M of 1.6M rows were literal from==to no-ops), grew
unified_resources.db to 1.6GB in three days, starved the store's single
connection until retention pruning failed with SQLITE_BUSY, and drove
the droplet into the swap-thrash outage on 2026-07-08. Same mechanism
as issue #1496.

Compare relationship sets by edge identity instead: canonical source,
canonical target, type, and active state, order-insensitive. Volatile
provenance fields no longer count as change.

Also cap resource_changes at 200k rows during retention pruning so a
pathological writer can never grow the table unbounded inside the
30-day retention window, and record both invariants in the
unified-resources subsystem contract.
