tests: prove a stable publish prunes a stale version from a newer-family edge

[andrebrait]

Follow-up to #35. When edge already serves a newer family (4.0.0.a1) and also carries a leftover older version (3.3.10), a stable 3.3.11 publish must skip edge as stale but still:

• prune the leftover so edge lists 4.0.0.a1 only (pkg installs the first candidate a catalogue lists),
• rewrite the catalogue descriptors,
• keep the dependency the 4.0.0.a1 build declares,

while stable and testing advance to 3.3.11. The existing test_stale_catalogue_holding_an_older_version_is_pruned_and_rewritten covers this for a testing-primary release only.

Test-only change. The new test fails under each of these mutations of publish(): skipping the prune for a stale destination, skipping the prune entirely, pruning without regenerating the catalogue, disabling the stale guard, and evicting dependencies from a stale destination using the incoming build's row.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a test for publishing stable 3.3.11 across all channels when edge contains 4.0.0.a1 and a stale 3.3.10 package. The test checks destination updates and the resulting package listings.

Release publishing test

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Cross-channel publish expectations tests/test_publish_release.py	Adds a test that expects all three destinations to be touched. It checks that edge retains 4.0.0.a1 and its dependency, while stable and testing list only 3.3.11.

The new test covers stale-package pruning and channel listings, but not whether the existing newer edge artifacts remain unchanged. Add byte-identity assertions before relying on it to guard that behavior.

Add a byte-identity assertion for the retained edge artifacts.

The test checks that 4.0.0.a1 and its dependency remain present, but it does not check that their bytes remain unchanged. A regression could replace either file under the same filename and still satisfy _assert_lists_only and _assert_carries_dependency.

Capture the canonical package and dependency bytes before seeding the stale package, then assert that both files have the same bytes after publishing 3.3.11.
