feat(examples): distinguish command replay from append retry

[yordis]

• Delayed command redelivery can outlive the expected revision that made the original append idempotent.
• Inventory correctness needs replay outcomes and business state to share one authoritative history without a dual-write window.
• Reusing an operation identity for different intent must fail closed to avoid accepting an ambiguous duplicate.

PR Summary

Low Risk
Changes are confined to an example and integration tests; no production client or server behavior is modified.

Overview
This PR extends the idempotent inventory example and the competing reservations idempotency integration test so command-level replay is separate from EventStore append retries.

Inventory folding now keeps a processed_operations index (by OperationId) alongside stock and reservations. reserve / release read that state first: identical operation IDs with matching payloads return the stored ProcessedOperation without appending; mismatched reuse fails closed (OperationIdConflict). Reserve/release flow through ReserveCommand / ReleaseCommand and CommandResult (appended, optional write, outcome) instead of ad-hoc ReservationAttempt types that only carried pre-built events.

The scenario still races two checkouts and walks release/reserve cycles, but idempotency checks change materially: only one transport retry still uses the original expected-revision append tuple; six delayed replays go through reserve/release and must match prior outcomes with appended: false. A conflicting reuse of the winner’s operation ID is asserted to error. Comments note that folding every processed operation into the stream implies unbounded index/history cost in production.

Walkthrough

The example and idempotency test now use typed reserve and release commands. Inventory state records processed operations and event revisions. Replayed commands return stored outcomes without appending, while conflicting operation IDs fail validation.

Changes

Inventory command idempotency

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Command and outcome contracts examples/idempotent_reservation.rs, trogon-eventstore/tests/api/idempotency.rs	Typed reserve and release commands serialize operation-based events. ProcessedOperation, CommandResult, and command errors define the idempotency model.
Inventory folding and command handlers examples/idempotent_reservation.rs, trogon-eventstore/tests/api/idempotency.rs	Inventory folding records processed operations and revisions. reserve and release replay matching commands, reject conflicting IDs, validate inventory state, and append new events.
Concurrency and replay validation examples/idempotent_reservation.rs, trogon-eventstore/tests/api/idempotency.rs	The concurrency scenarios execute typed commands, verify revisions and state transitions, replay completed commands without writes, reject conflicting reuse, and validate final processed state.

Priority: ⬇️ Low — Defer this example and API-test change because its scope is limited to demonstrating and validating idempotent command replay behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c6a6a

The idempotency example is mergeable, but should clarify how callers handle concurrent stream updates so users do not mistake command replay for append retry.

State that a revision conflict is the caller's responsibility.

append_at can return WrongExpectedVersion when another writer advances the stream between read_inventory and this append. reserve propagates that error unchanged, so a caller must reload and decide again. The example already teaches the difference between replay and retry, so make this obligation explicit next to the append. release at line 327 has the same behavior.

📝 Proposed comment

+    // A revision conflict invalidates this decision; the caller must reload and issue the
+    // command again with the same operation ID.
     let write = append_at(client, stream, revision, command.event()?).await?;
