Add deterministic tests for the new session synchronization invariants.

This diff changes queue completion and admission interleavings, but it includes no targeted C++ test changes.

  • src/coinjoin/server.cpp#L544-L560: Add a test that concurrent completion checks produce one queue transition and reject further queue-mode admissions after the state changes.
  • src/coinjoin/server.cpp#L816-L853: Add a controlled interleaving that changes or resets the session after the snapshot, then assert that the stale admission does not commit collateral.

As per coding guidelines, “Choose and add targeted C++ unit tests for changed behavior.”

This is a fair testing concern, but the proposed deterministic interleavings would require adding production-visible test seams or blocking hooks inside private admission methods. That scaffolding would be substantially larger than this synchronization fix and would make the PR harder to review.

I verified the affected paths with the existing CoinJoin unit suites, a debug/werror build, and the repository's TSAN CI configuration. I’m keeping this PR focused on the lock/snapshot invariant; a reusable concurrency test harness would be better introduced separately if maintainers want one.

@PastaPastaPasta, thanks for the detailed scope assessment.

The current validation gives useful coverage, but it does not prove the specific admission interleavings. I agree that production-visible hooks would be disproportionate for this focused synchronization change.

Would you like me to open a follow-up GitHub issue for a reusable CoinJoin concurrency test harness? The issue can define deterministic coverage for queue completion and stale admission snapshots without expanding this PR.

🟡 Suggestion: Add regression coverage for DSA session revalidation

This synchronization fix adds session identity, denomination, state, readiness, and capacity invariants, but the PR does not add tests that exercise the relevant interleavings. Existing CoinJoin tests do not call AddUserToExistingSession or prove that admission cannot commit after a session reset, queue transition, or competing admission fills the final slot. Add deterministic server tests that pause admission after the initial snapshot, mutate or advance the session, resume validation, and verify that no collateral is committed; also verify that concurrent completion checks produce only one queue transition and that racing admissions cannot overfill the session.

// Session collaterals are only ever test-accepted, never added to the mempool, so nothing
// pins their identity: the same UTXO can be re-signed into arbitrarily many distinct txids.
