* cache: strict cross-process gate for the warm session-cache refresh transaction (#645)
* lock: serialize the fence against the owner's own heartbeat
verifyStillOwner and the heartbeat tick both take the takeover guard;
without in-process serialization the fence could observe its own
heartbeat's guard file, read it as displacement, and abort a legitimate
publication. Fail-safe, but it discarded the parse the lock exists to
protect (~6% of verifies at a 1ms heartbeat in the repro). Owner-side
guard operations now run through one serializer; cross-process guard
semantics are unchanged. Regression test at heartbeatMs 1, mutation-
verified against the unserialized code.
