teknium1 b2ecd3518f test: purge low-value tests, lane py04 (294 removed)
Change-detectors, tautologies, source-reading tests, redundant duplicates,
mock-echo tests and dead/unrunnable tests. Per-test rationale in the lane
ledger (category + reason for every removal).

"""Regression coverage for #35344: a resumed session must not let a stale
historical task snapshot from an inherited compaction handoff hijack the reply to a
new, unrelated user message.
The failure mode (real report): a lineage was compacted, producing a handoff
whose historical task snapshot described task A. The lineage was resumed later and
the user asked about an unrelated task B. The model answered with A because
the handoff's resume directive outranked the fresh ask.
On a resumed lineage the inherited handoff must be detected as a summary
(state to rehydrate), never re-serialized as a fresh user turn.
