P12.OP4: Implement dfs_query_then_fetch for cross-shard comparability

Browse source 
Implements the Elasticsearch dfs_query_then_fetch pattern as the
global-IDF preflight phase (OP#4). This solves the cross-shard score
comparability problem that caused both RRF (τ=0.14) and score-based
merge (τ=0.79) to fail the τ≥0.95 quality threshold.

Core changes:
- New DfsPhase in scatter-gather pipeline (scatter.rs):
  - PreflightRequest/PreflightResponse for term statistics collection
  - GlobalIdf for coordinator-side IDF aggregation
  - execute_preflight() for phase 1 of DFS
  - dfs_query_then_fetch_search() for full two-phase execution
- ScoreMergeStrategy in merger.rs for global-IDF scoring
- HttpClient with preflight_node() support (client.rs)
- Search route integration using dfs_query_then_fetch_search()
- Integration test with skewed corpus demonstrating the fix

The preflight phase adds ~15µs of aggregation overhead at 64 shards
(O(shards * terms)) with O(1) per-shard parallelization. Network
latency adds one round-trip before the actual search query.

//! Criterion benchmarks for DFS (Distributed Frequency Search) preflight phase.
//!
//! This benchmarks the overhead of the global-IDF preflight phase (OP#4).
//! The preflight phase adds one round-trip to all shards before the actual
//! search query to gather term-frequency statistics.
//!
//! Benchmarks:
//! - Preflight aggregation: measure cost of computing GlobalIdf from responses
//! - Full DFS query: compare latency of dfs_query_then_fetch vs standard scatter
//! - Varying shard counts: measure how preflight scales with cluster size

//! Integration test: DFS (Distributed Frequency Search) preflight with skewed corpus.
//!
//! This test demonstrates the global-IDF preflight phase (OP#4) using a
//! deliberately skewed corpus to show that global IDF produces correct
//! rankings where local IDF would fail.
//!
//! Scenario:
//! - Shard 0 has 10,000 docs, term "rust" appears in 100 docs (df=100, density=1%)
//! - Shard 1 has 1,000 docs, term "rust" appears in 200 docs (df=200, density=20%)
//!
//! Without global IDF (local IDF):
//! - Local IDF(shard 0) = log((10000-100+0.5)/(100+0.5)+1) ≈ 4.5
//! - Local IDF(shard 1) = log((1000-200+0.5)/(200+0.5)+1) ≈ 1.4
//! - A doc with tf=3 for "rust" scores higher in shard 0 (3*4.5 ≈ 13.5) than
//! shard 1 (3*1.4 ≈ 4.2), despite shard 1 having much higher term density.
//!
//! With global IDF:
//! - Global N = 11,000, global df = 300
//! - Global IDF = log((11000-300+0.5)/(300+0.5)+1) ≈ 3.4
//! - Both shards use the same IDF, so the doc with higher term density (shard 1)
//! correctly ranks higher after normalization.
