* fix(plugins): cap the per-plugin state transition history
PluginStateManager recorded every state transition in a per-plugin list
and never trimmed it. The only code that removed entries was
clear_state(), called solely from PluginManager.unload_plugin(), so a
plugin that stays loaded -- normal operation -- never released one.
The list is written on the hot scheduling path. Every update cycle
appends twice: _reserve_for_update() sets RUNNING and _finish() sets
ENABLED back again. At the default 60s update interval that is 2,880
entries per plugin per day, and nothing reads them -- get_state_info()
only takes their len(). Pure dead weight.
Measured against the unpatched class, ten plugins on a 60s interval:
sim uptime history entries heap growth
1 day 28,810 7.7 MB
7 days 201,610 53.9 MB
30 days 864,010 230.9 MB (still climbing)
With the cap it is flat at 2,000 entries / 0.5 MB from day one.
On a 1 GB board 231 MB of garbage is fatal on its own, and the failure
is not a clean OOM: once MemAvailable falls far enough fork() starts
returning ENOMEM, so sshd accepts connections and closes them before its
banner while the kernel still answers pings. The board looks like a
hardware fault and needs a power cycle. Same family as the ceilings
added in #464.
Retain the most recent 200 transitions per plugin in a deque and let the
rest age out. state_history_count is surfaced through the web API, so
the lifetime total is tracked separately rather than plateauing at the
cap. get_state_history() now returns a copy under the lock; it was
handing out the manager's own list, which a caller could mutate.

* fix(plugins): copy history entries out, lock clear_state
Review follow-ups on the transition history.
get_state_history() copied only the outer list, so a caller holding a
returned transition could rewrite the manager's record of what happened
-- which contradicted the defensive-copy guarantee in its own docstring.
Copy each entry too. Every value in a transition is immutable, so a
shallow copy per entry is enough. test_get_state_history_entries_are_copies
pins it; without the change it fails with 'tampered' == 'enabled'.
clear_state() mutated five shared dicts without holding _lock, while
every other mutator takes it. A concurrent set_state() could interleave
and leave a plugin with history but no state. Drop the five as one unit.
This does not close the wider unload-vs-worker race, which lives in
PluginManager.unload_plugin() and predates this change: an update worker
still in flight can call set_state() after clear_state() returns and
recreate the entry. Serialising that needs the per-plugin lock held
across worker join in unload_plugin(), which is a separate change.
