Clear threat holder and reset runtime to idle when combat-target HP
is defeated — on cast accept and as an AdvanceOne guard so telegraph
cycles cannot continue after the killing blow.
Replace NEO-93 placeholder comments with full telegraph_fired and
npc_state_transition E9.M1 anchors in NpcRuntimeOperations; document
in server README and E5.M2 module alignment.
Do not move the lazy-tick marker backward when nowUtc regresses; reject
non-positive catalog durations and break the phase loop when cursor stalls.
