test(pr-queue): add missing Requirement-5 conflict/staleness scenario tests for #166

Covers:
1. Stale prior handoff merged but live open
2. Prior open but live closed
3. list_prs and view_pr disagree
4. Merge commit missing after claimed merge
5. Linked issue remains open after claimed merge

Uses live mocks for list/view with staleness fields (#166).
Proves coverage; no src changes or gate weakening.
Refs #170
