Remove Redux Toolkit from @trrack/core and expand core coverage

[JackWilb]

This PR removes the Redux Toolkit dependency from @trrack/core and replaces the small amount of RTK functionality the package was using with local implementations.

It also fixes a couple of core typing/runtime issues uncovered during the refactor and significantly expands the packages/core test suite.

What changed

• Removed @reduxjs/toolkit from packages/core
• Added a local action module for:
• PayloadAction
• PayloadActionCreator
• createAction
• Replaced the RTK-backed provenance graph store/slice/listener setup with a local reducer/action implementation
• Updated generated dist artifacts and package metadata
• Updated the dummy app to import PayloadAction from @trrack/core
• Updated the createAction API doc to reflect the local implementation
• Follow-up fixes included
• Fixed Registry.register typing so normal mutating state reducers type-check correctly
• Fixed StateChangeFunction typing to allow Immer-style reducers that mutate state and return void
• Fixed checkpoint vs patch detection in trrack so multi-key updates are no longer misclassified as patches
• Tests

Expanded packages/core coverage with new and improved tests for:

• node construction
• registry/action creator behavior
• current-change listeners
• traversal across branches
• side-effect replay during traversal
• import/export fidelity on branched graphs
• patch vs checkpoint storage
• event listener unsubscribe behavior

Compatibility notes

• For standard initializeTrrack usage, behavior should remain effectively the same.

Potential compatibility risks:

• createAction(type, prepareAction) is no longer supported
• initializeProvenanceGraph().update is no longer Redux-dispatch-like; it now accepts Trrack graph actions directly
• exported graph payloads may differ because some states now correctly store as checkpoints instead of patches

Pull request overview

This PR removes the @reduxjs/toolkit dependency from @trrack/core by introducing a local action-creator implementation and refactoring the provenance graph “store” to a lightweight in-module reducer/update mechanism, alongside a sizable expansion of the core test suite.

Changes:

• Removed Redux Toolkit from @trrack/core (deps + bundling config) and replaced RTK action utilities with local equivalents.
• Replaced the RTK store/slice/listener setup for the provenance graph with a local reducer + manual listener notification.
• Expanded packages/core tests to cover traversal, recording strategy, registry behavior, node construction, and import/export fidelity.

Pull request overview

This PR removes the @reduxjs/toolkit dependency from @trrack/core by replacing the small RTK usages (action creator types + provenance graph store/listeners) with local implementations, and expands packages/core test coverage around traversal, recording, registry behavior, and import/export.

Changes:

• Replace RTK createAction/PayloadAction usage with a local packages/core/src/action.ts implementation and re-export from @trrack/core.
• Replace the RTK store/slice + listener middleware backing the provenance graph with a local reducer + immer-based update pipeline.
• Add/expand core tests for traversal, listeners, import/export, recording strategy (patch vs checkpoint), registry behavior, and unsubscribe behavior.
