test: global 90s timeout + document the hang-proof test workflow

Browse source 
Diagnosed the recurring 'tests hang' pain by measurement: the logic layer
is fast and reliable (dart test commons_core ~1s/82 tests; flutter test
test/services ~11s/124 tests, green), and only WIDGET tests hang — because
pumpAndSettle() waits for a screen to stop scheduling frames and a live
source (Drift/Nostr stream, periodic Timer, connectivity/plugin) never does,
so it sits at the 10-minute default and the run looks stuck.

- apps/app_seeds/dart_test.yaml sets timeout: 90s so such a test FAILS fast
  and names itself instead of blocking the whole run.
- CLAUDE.md now spells out the split-by-layer workflow (logic via
  dart test/flutter test test/services; widget tests targeted + timed out;
  never pumpAndSettle a live screen).

**Prefer workspace-level commands from the repo root** — one lockfile, one `.dart_tool`, both members at once. Verified working:
- `dart pub get` (root) — resolves the whole workspace; don't `pub get` per package.
- `dart analyze` (root) — analyzes `commons_core` **and** `app_seeds` together. Use this as the default gate.
- `dart test packages/commons_core` — pure Dart, fast (~1s), the TDD workhorse.
- **Not** `dart test` for `app_seeds` — it needs `flutter test`, which is slow and has hung here; run it locally/per-package, never as a routine gate (see [testing.md](docs/design/testing.md) and the testing-gotchas memory).

**Testing — split by layer; NEVER run the whole `flutter test` blind (it's what "hangs").** Diagnosed 2026-07-11: logic tests are fast and reliable; only *widget* tests hang, because `pumpAndSettle()` on a screen with a never-settling source (live Drift/Nostr stream, periodic `Timer`, connectivity/plugin) waits at the 10-min default. The everyday gate:
- `dart test packages/commons_core` — pure Dart, ~1s. The TDD workhorse. (`dart test` can't run `app_seeds` — it needs `flutter`.)
- `flutter test test/services` — app logic + in-memory DB, no widgets, ~10s, reliable. Put new app logic in plain `test()` here.
- Widget tests: run targeted (`flutter test test/ui/<file>`), always with a timeout so a hang FAILS fast — a global `apps/app_seeds/dart_test.yaml` sets `timeout: 90s`; add `--timeout 30s` when in doubt. Never `pumpAndSettle` a live screen; use bounded `pump(Duration)`. See the testing-gotchas memory + [testing.md](docs/design/testing.md).

# The everyday, hang-proof gate is the logic layer, not widgets:

# flutter test test/services # logic + in-memory DB, ~10s, no widgets
# Run widget tests targeted (flutter test test/ui/<file>), never blind, and

# A genuinely slower (but finite) test can opt out with @Timeout(Duration(...)).
