Mathew Beaneandclaude-flow cbd84acf6c fix(unified): stop GaussianMap::decay compounding across calls
decay(now) multiplied confidence by exp(-(now - timestamp_ns)/tau_eff)
on every call, but timestamp_ns is the last-seen time and does not move
when decay runs. Calling decay(t1) then decay(t2) applied
exp(-(t1-ts)/tau) * exp(-(t2-ts)/tau) instead of exp(-(t2-ts)/tau), so
confidence fell faster the more often the caller ticked.

Track how far each Gaussian has already been decayed (decayed_to_ns)
and only apply the interval since max(decayed_to_ns, timestamp_ns).
A fresh observation still restarts the clock, and the lifetime-stretched
tau_eff is unchanged. Fusion and the merge pass keep the later of the
two decayed_to_ns values. The new field is #[serde(default)], so maps
serialized before this change load with 0 and decay from timestamp_ns
as before.

Adds two tests: one-shot vs. per-second decay must agree to 1e-12, and
the wall-vs-transient persistence case must hold when decay runs every
10 s.
