fix(plugins): core's own config keys no longer flag plugins as degraded

Found while sweeping devpi for issues. Nine of 27 installed plugins were
reported degraded in the web UI -- including baseball-scoreboard and
f1-scoreboard -- for using a documented core feature.

The core reads three tuning keys out of each plugin's own config block:
vegas_width_pct and vegas_overflow (vegas_mode/plugin_adapter.py) and
vegas_max_width_screens (base_plugin.py). No plugin declares them, and 37 of
the 42 published config schemas set "additionalProperties": false -- so schema
validation reported them as violations.

That is not just log noise. _validate_config_schema_soft sets `degraded` in
the health tracker, which the web UI surfaces, so a user who tuned a core
Vegas setting saw the plugin marked broken.

The keys are stripped before validation. Fixing it plugin-side would mean 42
schema edits and 42 version bumps -- 42 store updates for a contract the core
owns.

Listed explicitly rather than matched on a `vegas_` prefix: vegas_mode is the
opposite case, plugin-owned and declared in schemas, and a prefix rule would
silently stop validating it.

Verified on devpi: degraded went 9 of 27 -> 0 of 27, schema-mismatch warnings
9 -> 0, 22 plugins still load, no tracebacks. 800 core unit tests pass,
8 of them new -- including that a genuine violation is still reported, so the
check has not been turned into a no-op, and that the caller's live config dict
is never mutated.

-Tests that "which plugins have fresh data" survives the async update worker.
-
-Regression under test: run_scheduled_updates_with_changes() snapshotted
-plugin_last_update, called run_scheduled_updates(), and diffed the two. But
-run_scheduled_updates() only *enqueues* -- the work runs on the update worker
-and stamps the timestamp there, after the method has already returned. The
-snapshots were therefore always identical and the result always empty.
-
-Vegas depends on that result: it is what calls mark_plugin_updated(), which
-drops the cached content for a plugin whose data changed. With it always
-empty, a segment kept scrolling whatever it was first built from -- the
-"last night's live game still drawn as live the next morning" failure the
-coordinator comments describe. Observed on a live rig: zero update ticks in
-twenty minutes, with weather, stocks and news all updating.
