Tom Boucher bf954e4b44 fix(#916): deterministic phase-complete subprocess in regression tests (#917)
The bug #1998 subtest "checkbox updated when archived milestones exist in
<details>" flaked under the high-concurrency docker run (~672 test files in
parallel): the current-milestone checkbox was left unchecked.

Root cause: `gsd-tools phase complete` writes ROADMAP.md as its LAST step,
after a read-heavy parse/lock sequence. Under heavy parallel CPU/IO
contention the test's tight `timeout: 10000` fired mid-parse and SIGTERM'd
the subprocess before that write landed, leaving ROADMAP.md pristine (both
phases `- [ ]`). The bare `catch {}` silently swallowed the kill, so a
timeout masqueraded as a "checkbox not checked" assertion failure. All I/O
is scoped to each test's tmpDir, so there is no cross-process race — the
timeout was the sole cause.

Consolidate all 7 duplicated `phase complete` call sites (suites #1998,
#2005, #2526) into a shared runPhaseComplete() helper that:
  1. raises the timeout to 60s so the test's own timer never kills the
     subprocess under load;
  2. never silently swallows a signal/timeout kill (rethrows loudly with
     captured output) while still tolerating a clean non-zero exit for the
     ROADMAP-asserting tests via { tolerateExit: true }.

No retry loop. Verified with 3x `gsd-test --reset` full docker runs
(13207 tests / 2311 suites each, 0 failures, flaky subtest green every
round).

Closes #916
