test(app): studysets synced against a running server

The first tests that need serverpod start running (ADR 0001, rule 9: the client's and the server's sync engines can't share one process), tagged requires-server: tool/check.sh skips them, flutter test -t requires-server runs them. Every device is its own client and local database with the app's real gateway and repository, and syncs only when a test says so.

They state: two devices of one person end up with the same studysets; a deleted studyset leaves the other devices, and its payload is blank on the server, checked with SQL against the development database because the engine keeps deleted rows; a studyset written into another person's space never reaches them; claiming another person's space shows none of their studysets, since the server sends only the spaces the signed-in person has access to. As written here, the forgery test also expects the server to refuse and log the write, and the SQL checks connect over TCP; the first run against the server corrected both (see the commit "the sync tests pass against the running server").

They live in the app package: the server's Docker build resolves its dependencies with only the server package present, so a dev dependency on the client package would break it. They never initialize a Flutter test binding, which would replace real HTTP with a mock. Without a server they fail at sign-in with "connection refused".

- Shared fakes live in `test/support/`; fakes pre-stub their streams so an incidental subscription doesn't fail the test.
- **Editor in widget tests**: host `AppFlowyEditor` in a scrollable body with a fixed-height slot (an over-constrained `Expanded` hangs the test), and `pump(const Duration(seconds: 1))` after editor changes to flush its timers. Test the document ↔ JSON round-trip as plain unit tests.
- **Layout-sensitive widget tests** set `tester.view.physicalSize` explicitly, so a responsive branch isn't missed for the wrong reason.
- **Sync tests run against a running server** (ADR 0001, rule 9: the client's and the server's sync engines can't share one process): `halkyon_learn_flutter/test/sync/`, tagged `requires-server`, skipped by `tool/check.sh`; run them with `flutter test -t requires-server` while `serverpod start` runs. Every device is a client with in-memory session storage and its own local database, with the app's real gateway and repository on top; tests sync explicitly. What only the operator could see (a blanked payload, a logged refusal) is checked with SQL against the development database. They live in the app package because the server's Docker build resolves the server's dependencies without the client package. They must not initialize a Flutter test binding (no `testWidgets`), which would replace real HTTP with a mock.
- **Widget tests of the signed-in app** pump `SessionGate` with `testDependencies(...)` and `pumpAndSettle()` until `PersonScope` has opened the person's data; the fake gateways work in memory (`FakeStudysetGateway`, with `failReads` for the error path).
