ScottW514 dc7170d0d1 forgetest: cooling.flow-under-load finds the verdict by offset, not by a tail count
The test counted "heater rise" in the last 300 lines of the forgectrl log
before the job, then waited for the count to grow. A tail of fixed length
cannot show that: the new verdict line comes in at the bottom as an old one
leaves at the top, the count does not move, and a check that verified reads
as one that never judged.

Seen on the bench reference in campaign c-20260919210959-8780: the engine
logged "coolant flow verified (heater rise 11.5 C, dT 9.5 C; laser 1.6 off
13.1)" at 21:37:46, 70 s into the job and inside the wait, and the test
failed at 21:39:21 with "the engine published no flow verdict within 120 s".
The 21:17:27 verdict of an earlier test sat near the top of the 300-line
tail when the test began. Replayed against that log, the old method reads 4
before the job and 4 with the new verdict in the tail; the search from the
byte offset finds the 21:37:46 line.

The test now takes the log's byte offset before the job (_log_offset, as
the fail-tier and liveness tests do) and searches what the file gained
since with the verdict expression, stopping only on a line that matches.
_log_since reads a file that is now shorter than the offset from its start:
a rotation under the test leaves only newer lines. The /logs/tail helper
and its line count are gone with their one user.

Proven: tests/test_cooling_suite.py FlowVerdictLogTests - the text after the
offset alone, the real verdict line through the expression, an old verdict
before the offset not taken for the new one, a rotated log read whole, a
missing log read as nothing; the cooling host tests pass under Linux, 24
tests. No component source changed, so no pin moves.
