Pull request overview

This PR introduces an opt-in per-message policy for how the background worker should handle federated backend-notification bundles when there is no common federation API version with the target backend. It extends the RabbitMQ payload format in a backward-compatible way (defaulting to the safe “keep queued” behavior) while enabling producers to explicitly request dropping unsupported notifications.

Changes:

• Add UnsupportedVersionPolicy and extend PayloadBundle with an optional unsupportedVersionPolicy field (defaults to KeepQueued on decode).
• Update the background worker pusher to either keep the message queued (and mark the queue as stuck) or ack+count-drop based on the policy.
• Add Prometheus metric wire_backend_notifications_dropped_unsupported_version and extend tests to cover default/combination behavior and drop-vs-keep behavior.
