fix(hydro): restore USGS stream-gauge flood alerts (silently dead since the all-native flip) (#156)
* fix(hydro): make native USGS gauge flood alerts renderable

env/usgs.py emits stream_flood_warning / stream_high_water Events for
elevated stream gauges, but neither category had a registered gating
decider or formatter, and event.data was left empty -- so every
detected flood/high-water reading was silently dropped before it ever
reached the mesh (get_decider/get_formatter both returned None, and
compose_mesh_message fell through with nothing to render).

- Register the existing hydro.decide()/hydro.format() (already used by
  the Central-only `stream_flow` category) under stream_flood_warning
  and stream_high_water too -- same shared-decider/formatter pattern
  already used for avalanche_warning/_watch, weather_*, wildfire_*, and
  emergency_*.
- Add both categories to cutover.NATIVE_ALWAYS_DECIDE so the decider and
  formatter actually run unconditionally (mirrors the native WFIGS fire
  categories): Central never emits these two category strings, so there
  is no shadow-bake window to wait out.
- env/usgs.py's to_event() now populates event.data with the canonical
  hydro schema (site_id, gauge_name, stage_ft, flow_cfs, unit,
  threshold_state, reading_time, lat, lon, parameter_code) the shared
  gate/formatter expect, mapping the adapter's flood_status strings onto
  the ranked threshold_state vocabulary.
- gating/hydro.py's decide() now also OWNS an unconditional
  gauge_readings INSERT for the native source (source != "nwis"): the
  table had no writer since Central's nwis_handler stopped running
  (2026-07-05), so every native prior-state lookup returned "normal"
  forever and every elevated reading would have rebroadcast on every
  15-minute tick instead of once per crossing. The Central source keeps
  its own inline handler-owned INSERT unchanged (decide() stays
  read-only for source="nwis").

Left as-is (not this fix): the toggle mapping for these categories
(get_toggle() -> "seismic") is unchanged. It already matches the
sibling `stream_flow` category and is enforced by
test_water_v057.py::test_existing_hydro_entries_unchanged /
test_water_categories_have_required_fields; there is no separate
water/flood toggle family in VALID_TOGGLES, and inventing one is a
config-surface change outside this fix's scope.

Known limitation documented in gating/hydro.py: since to_event() only
ever emits elevated readings (never a "back to normal" reading), a full
recede-to-normal followed by a later re-crossing into the same tier
will not re-broadcast until a higher tier is reached -- degrades toward
silence, not spam.

* test(hydro): cover native gauge flood-alert registration, gating, and wire format

Registration tests prove stream_flood_warning/stream_high_water now
resolve a decider AND a formatter (the thing that was broken), that
neither resolves to the earthquake decider despite sharing the
"seismic" toggle name, and that both are in NATIVE_ALWAYS_DECIDE.

Gate tests drive env/usgs.py's to_event() through the real
gating.hydro.decide(): a first elevated reading broadcasts (graceful
no-prior-data handling), a sustained same-band reading suppresses, an
escalation broadcasts again, and a routine reading never reaches the
gate at all (unchanged pre-fix adapter behavior). A dedicated test
confirms the new native-persistence write in decide() does not leak
into the Central source="nwis" path.

Golden formatter tests pin the wire string for a high-water and two
flood-warning tiers, plus the missing-coords drop case -- all rendered
through the same formatters.hydro.format() the Central `stream_flow`
path uses (test_hydro_refactor.py already proves that formatter is
byte-identical to the old central.nwis_handler._render()). Native
events never carry flow_cfs (to_event() only ever emits stage/height
readings), so that segment's absence is captured explicitly as current
behavior, not ported from Central.

An end-to-end test drives to_event() -> decider -> compose_mesh_message
to prove the NATIVE_ALWAYS_DECIDE gate takes effect for the actual mesh
render path, not just formatter/decider resolution in isolation.
