fuzz: add explicit local force-close ops

Add a small HTLC-free force-close slice to the chanmon consistency
harness. The new opcodes close one known channel on each peer link and
track which channels are expected to close.

Use the close tracker to reject untracked channel loss while accepting
stale post-close errors and cleanup generated by explicitly closed
channels. Later harness API calls skip tracked-closed channels so normal
channel APIs are not called after modeling a local close.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes a fuzzing test harness (chanmon_consistency.rs). It adds new test operations that simulate local force-closing of channels and tracks which channels are expected to close so the harness can reject unexpected channel losses. There is no change to production code, user-facing behavior, or real wallet/channel logic, so it does not introduce or fix a security vulnerability in the software itself.

Recommended action

No security action required; review as normal test/fuzzing harness improvement.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
