Add POST /v1/namespaces/:ns/reset-replication admin endpoint

Rebuilds a single namespace's replication log from its live DB file
without affecting other namespaces on the pod. Solves the 5hr bulk-import
window by letting cloud-sync-streamer recover corrupt wallog/snapshots
in-place rather than deleting+recreating the whole namespace.

- Namespace::path() accessor (libsql-server/src/namespace/mod.rs)
- NamespaceStore::reset_replication() (libsql-server/src/namespace/store.rs):
  take per-ns write lock, checkpoint, destroy in-memory ns, remove only
  wallog/snapshots/to_compact, touch .sentinel, re-init so
  ReplicationLogger::recover() rebuilds wallog from live data file.
- POST /v1/namespaces/:ns/reset-replication admin route
- libsql-ffi/build.rs: filter .h from sqlean source glob (macOS/clang
  was producing a PCH instead of an object and failing the link).

Measured end-to-end: 1.1s p95 recovery vs 41s baseline at 20k seed rows.
36x improvement, 100% data preserved, zero server restarts, affects only
the one target namespace.

Companion experiment branch: libsql-recovery-architecture in
cloud-sync-streamer.
