The "session switch: newer file triggers replay" test relied on
wall-clock mtimes to decide which .jsonl was newest. Under timing
pressure the two files' mtimes could tie, so the reader never switched
and the test timed out — it failed ~60% of full-suite runs (measured),
the source of the intermittent red I'd been waving off as "a flake".
Backdate session A to a fixed past time so the newer file is
unambiguously newer; the switch is now guaranteed regardless of load.
