Clean broadcast cancellation diagnostics

Bound `BroadcastState.cancelled` entries to receiver progress,
terminal state and resource lifetime instead of retaining completed
`Task`s indefinitely.

Deats,
- make EOC durable so awakened peers never re-enter a closed source.
- close root broadcasters during explicit `MsgStream` and
  `LinkedTaskChannel` teardown without re-entrant EOC closure or
  breaking `MsgStream.aclose()` overrides.
- reject non-positive fan-out retention capacity before constructing
  an unusable zero-length queue.
- cover child/root cancellation cleanup, terminal peer wakeups,
  wrapper teardown, subclass compatibility and zero-buffer rejection.

## Prompt
Continue Tractor PR 490 after the paired piker EMS consumer commit. Clean
cancelled-task diagnostics, define or reject zero-buffer broadcast behavior,
review and verify the change, then stop at a complete commit plan.
## Response summary
Bound cancellation diagnostics to receiver progress, terminal state and
resource lifetime; made EOC durable across peers; released wrapper-owned root
broadcasters without breaking graceful EOC or subclass overrides; and rejected
non-positive fan-out retention capacity.
## Files changed
- `tractor/trionics/_broadcast.py` - diagnostic lifecycle, durable EOC and
buffer validation.
- `tractor/_streaming.py` - safe `MsgStream` root broadcaster cleanup.
- `tractor/to_asyncio.py` - linked-channel root broadcaster cleanup.
- `tests/test_task_broadcasting.py` - cancellation, EOC, wrapper and capacity
regressions.
## Human edits
None - generated output follows the requested fifth iterative item.

The user asked to continue after committing the paired piker EMS consumer
fix. The next isolated Tractor PR 490 item was to clean cancelled-task
diagnostics and define zero-buffer broadcast behavior, then review, test and
stop at a complete commit plan.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/trionics/_broadcast.py`
Made `BroadcastState.cancelled` transient: receiver progress and close clear
that receiver's diagnostic, terminal EOC and shared receive failure clear all
stale cancelled tasks, and durable EOC prevents peers from re-entering the
closed source. `broadcast_receiver()` now rejects non-positive retention
capacity before creating an unusable zero-length deque.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/_streaming.py`
Made explicit `MsgStream.aclose()` release its internally allocated root
broadcaster while preserving graceful receive-internal EOC teardown. Used a
task-local marker so the public zero-argument `aclose()` signature and valid
subclass overrides remain compatible.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/to_asyncio.py`
Made `LinkedTaskChannel.aclose()` release its internally allocated root
broadcaster before closing the underlying Trio receive channel.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tests/test_task_broadcasting.py`
Added synchronized regressions for transient child cancellation diagnostics,
cross-receiver terminal cleanup, durable EOC peer wakeups, root broadcaster
cleanup through both public wrappers, `MsgStream.aclose()` subclass
compatibility, and zero-buffer rejection.
Verification output:

The integration runs cover real `MsgStream` actor fan-out and infected-asyncio
`LinkedTaskChannel` fan-out. Ruff, Python compilation and `git diff --check`
passed. Repeated adversarial review found and resolved root close re-entrancy,
cross-receiver terminal retention, durable-EOC and subclass-compatibility
issues; final review reported no findings.
