[AZ-329] [AZ-330] [AZ-523] [AZ-524] Batch 44 atomic refactor

Implements two new C12 services and rebalances the C11/C12 boundary
in one atomic commit:

* AZ-329 PostLandingUploadOrchestrator — gates C11 upload on the
  `flight_footer` FDR record's `clean_shutdown` field; 4 refusal
  modes; new FdrFooterReader Protocol + LocalFdrFooterReader.
* AZ-330 OperatorReLocService — AC-3.4 visual-loss re-localization
  hint; reuses shared LatLonAlt; OperatorCommandTransport Protocol
  cut (E-C8 owns the future pymavlink concrete); new FDR record
  kind `c12.reloc.requested`; log redaction (lat/lon 5 decimals,
  reason 200 chars).
* AZ-523 C11 internal flight-state gate removed (SRP refactor):
  `confirm_flight_state` / `FlightStateSignal` use /
  `FlightStateNotOnGroundError` deleted from C11; TileUploader
  contract bumped to v2.0.0 (frozen) with migration note; AZ-317
  superseded.
* AZ-524 Package rename `c12_operator_tooling` →
  `c12_operator_orchestrator` across source, tests, pyproject,
  CMake, Dockerfile, compose, CI, runtime-root services class
  (`OperatorOrchestratorServices`) + factory function
  (`build_operator_orchestrator`), logger namespaces, config slug,
  docs, and the E-C12 epic title.

Tests: 1543 passed, 80 skipped (all environment gates). Targeted
AC suite (AZ-329 + AZ-330 + FdrFooterReader): 37 passed. Cold-start
NFR-perf still ≤ 500 ms p99.

Tracker: AZ-317 → Done (superseded); AZ-319 v2.0.0 contract bump
comment; AZ-329/AZ-330 → In Testing; AZ-253 epic renamed; AZ-523
+ AZ-524 created and closed as audit-trail tickets.

See `_docs/03_implementation/batch_44_cycle1_report.md`.

+"""AZ-489 — C12 ``FlightsApiClient`` unit tests.
+
+Covers AC-1..AC-18 from ``_docs/02_tasks/todo/AZ-489_c12_flights_api_client.md``.
+
+Online tests use ``httpx.MockTransport`` (httpx's native mock; no extra
+HTTP-mocking dependency). Offline tests use ``tmp_path``-backed JSON
+files. Bbox tests validate the FAC-INV-3 horizontal-distance buffer at
+50 deg N against the canonical metres-per-degree expectations.

+"""AZ-326 + AZ-328 — `build-cache` CLI happy + unhappy paths.
+
+After AZ-328 the CLI no longer resolves the flight itself — it builds
+a :class:`BuildCacheRequest` and hands it to the
+:class:`BuildCacheOrchestrator` injected via the services dataclass.
+The flight resolve happens inside the orchestrator.
+
+The flag-mapping ACs from AZ-326 (AC-11 .. AC-17) are still enforced
+here: the test fakes assert that the orchestrator received the right
+request shape, and that ``CacheBuildReport.failure_exception_type``
+fields drive the documented exit-code mapping.

+  newest segment when the footer lives there).
+* AC-9 — real FDR fixture C12-IT-03(a): clean-shutdown footer present →
+  the reader returns the parsed :class:`FlightFooterRecord`.
+* AC-10 — real FDR fixture C12-IT-03(b): no-footer truncation → the

+  ``footer_missing`` (integration via a tiny composition of orchestrator
+  + reader on the truncated fixture).
+* Frame-corruption paths (truncated length prefix, truncated body,
+  invalid JSON, wrong-flight UUID, payload schema mismatch) →
+  :class:`FdrUnreadableError`.
+
+The fixtures are generated in-test using the same length-prefixed
+serialisation the C13 writer uses (``struct.Struct('<I')`` +
+``fdr_client.records.serialise``). Driving the full
+:class:`FileFdrWriter` lifecycle is unnecessary — the on-disk frame
+layout is the contract.
