test: validate the channels API against a real peer
The channel test only checked that create/send/close returned values, so
it passed while every send failed downstream: channel_send returns a
request id immediately and reports the outcome asynchronously, and with
no listener on onChannelMessageError there was nothing to notice. Asking
the question properly -- two nodes, one channel, does the payload arrive
-- surfaced three things, none of them caused by the nim-ffi migration.

Encryption was never installed, so no segment could ever be sent; that is
fixed in the vendor by naming the mechanism at channel creation.

Autosharding could not be switched on from here at all. A channel's shard
is derived from its content topic, so without it the send cannot even
auto-subscribe. num-shards-in-network exists on the kernel conf but
WakuNodeConfig never exposed it, so it is added here.

Ingress is still dropped below this layer, so channel_message_reaches_peer
is #[ignore]d with the evidence in its doc comment rather than deleted or
weakened into a test that cannot fail. The single-node test keeps its
narrow scope and now says why it asserts nothing about arrival.

The error listeners stay: a send that fails silently is exactly how this
went unnoticed, and they turn a timeout into a diagnosis.
