feat(git-sync): three-way body merge using the last-synced base (no edit loss)

Upgrades the 2-way body merge to a real diff3 three-way merge (review #5), so a
block ONLY the human changed is KEPT when git changed a DIFFERENT block — the
2-way merge would revert it to git's stale version.

Engine: the push update loop reads the last-synced pre-image
(`git.showFileAtRef(refs/docmost/last-pushed, path)`) and passes it as the
optional `baseMarkdown` to `client.importPageMarkdown` (the common ancestor).

Server: gitmost-datasource converts base+incoming, and writeBody runs a block-
level diff3 (new three-way-merge.ts `diff3Plan`): live-only change -> keep live,
git-only change -> take git, both-changed -> git wins (conflict policy), inserts/
deletes from either side preserved. Without a base (createPage) it falls back to
the 2-way merge. Crash-safety unchanged (docs built before the connection opens).

Tests: three-way-merge.spec.ts (14 — every diff3 case incl. the cross-block
preservation and conflict policy), yjs-body-merge 3-way (real Y.Docs: human's
block instance preserved while git's block is applied), plus an engine test that
the base is forwarded from showFileAtRef. Existing push assertions updated for the
new base arg. git-sync 589 pass; server merge/datasource/gate 62 pass; typecheck
clean.

/**
* Pure block-level THREE-WAY merge planner (diff3) over arrays of opaque block
* keys. Used by the git-sync body write to merge an incoming git body into the
* live page using the last-synced version as the common ancestor (review #5):
*
* - a block only the human changed (live != base, git == base) -> keep LIVE
* - a block only git changed (git != base, live == base) -> take GIT
* - a block both sides changed (a real conflict) -> GIT wins
* - inserts/deletes from either side are preserved when unambiguous
*
* Content-agnostic: it works on string keys and returns the merged block order as
* picks ({ src: 'live'|'target', index }) — the caller (the Yjs applier)
* materializes them — so the whole algorithm is unit-testable on plain arrays.
*
* Algorithm: anchor on base blocks present (unchanged) in BOTH live and target
* (their LCS-with-base intersection). Between consecutive anchors lies one region
* the human and/or git rewrote; resolve each region three-way. Stable anchor
* blocks are emitted from LIVE so the applier keeps the existing Yjs block
* instances (and the human's in-flight edits) in place.
