test: cover the previously untested modules

Nine new suites plus an extension, asserting the Phase-1b fixed behavior
and pinning the quirks deliberately left alone:

- test_logging_config.py: formatters (JSON shape, no record mutation,
  single prefix through two handlers), PluginLoggerAdapter precedence,
  setup_logging handler hygiene and LEDMATRIX_DEBUG, log_error exc_info.
- test_startup_validator.py: exact messages, error-vs-warning split,
  accessor split (load_config vs get_config), cache-dir branches with
  os.access monkeypatched (root can write anything in CI), idempotence,
  raise_on_errors classification precedence.
- test_config_helper.py (full): load/save round trips, dot-notation
  get/set incl. silent-failure contract, post-fix no-aliasing merge,
  schema validation branches, the '{id}_config' key pin, default-enabled
  pin.
- test_saved_repositories.py: three load shapes, bare-list rewrite pin,
  trailing-only .git strip (my.github.io regression), save-failure
  rollback, type-classification case-sensitivity pin.
- test_api_helper.py: rate-limit math, cache-hit short circuit, ESPN
  URL/key formats, exact User-Agent guard, retry adapter, post-fix
  clear_cache against the real CacheManager surface, ttl-dropped pin.
- test_base_odds_manager.py: cache-key/URL construction, no_odds
  sentinel round trip, stale-cache fallback, null-safe extraction,
  ML-only formatting, is_odds_available truth table (ML-blind by
  contract), config key/attr mismatch pin.
- test_dynamic_team_resolver.py: expansion/dedup/slicing, dropped
  unknown-dynamic names (TOP_ substring hazard pinned), genuinely
  shared class cache (second instance: zero HTTP), TTL expiry,
  failure degradation without raising.
- test_display_helper.py (full): the fixed error/no-data renders,
  combined scorebug top line, non-blank ticker with scroll_speed
  no-op pin, composite upconversion, logo bleed positions, square
  orientation pin.
- test_skin_runtime_cache.py: discovery-cache hit/invalidation
  semantics (manifest mtime, .py edits pinned as non-invalidating),
  sys.modules namespacing contract incl. bare-name restore and stdlib
  shadowing, entry-module execute-once, API minor-version tolerance,
  skin_matches_target table.
- test_sports_capabilities.py (extended): _draw_celebration_layout
  executed for real (flash window, matrix-dims fallback, highlight
  alternation, logo-failure isolation), _should_celebrate_for direct,
  strict duration boundary, score_to_int edges, both-teams-score
  precedence, expired-coalesce refire, disabled-win baseline
  preservation, id-less prune.

+Tests for src/common/config_helper.py — pins the ConfigHelper contract.
+
+Covers: load/save round trips (missing/malformed files return {} rather
+than raising, non-ASCII preserved via ensure_ascii=False, top-level JSON
+lists returned as-is), dot-notation get/set including the silent-failure
+contract when an intermediate key holds a non-dict, merge_configs deep
+semantics with NO aliasing of the base config (the fixed bug — the old
+shallow copy let mutations of the merged result leak into base's nested
+dicts), simplified schema validation including the caught-TypeError path
+when a schema 'type' is given as a string, plugin config key conventions
+('{plugin_id}_config', enabled defaults True), and required-key checks
+where a key present with value None counts as present.
