The held /reserve now waits on an asyncio.Event and resolves when the local
queue consumer POSTs /release on the internal control port (127.0.0.1:18999
by default). This produces a 200 success in metrics instead of the 499
cancellation you got from disconnecting the client. The duration cap stays
as a safety net for stuck consumers.
The internal aiohttp server is now unconditional and hosts /release always;
the stub /health route is added only when BACKEND_HEALTH_URL is unset.
NULL_STUB_HEALTH_PORT is renamed to NULL_CONTROL_PORT to reflect the
broader role.
