Fix peer disconnect detection and add a knob protected KRM uncoalesced handling

tool.

Bug fixes:
- Detect peer disconnect in waitValueOrSignal (genericactors.actor.h).
  Adds a when() clause watching peer->disconnect so dead connections
  (e.g., from NAT timeouts) are detected immediately instead of hanging
  indefinitely waiting on a connection the lower layer has already replaced.
  We saw this in an incident where waiting on a long reply on a network
  with frequent disconnects; low level fdb would make a new connection
  but high-level would wait until we timed out on the original.
- Add DD_COALESCE_UNCOALESCED_KRM knob to tolerate uncoalesced KRM entries
  (KeyRangeMap.actor.cpp, MoveKeys.actor.cpp). When enabled, logs a warning
  and skips instead of crashing with ASSERT on adjacent entries with the
  same value. Off by default.

Tests:
- Unit tests for waitValueOrSignal peer disconnect detection
- KRMCoalesceTest workload and toml for testing uncoalesced KRM tolerance
