feat: add corosync quorum health check for proxmox-host entities
Adds pvecm_quorum_check.sh probe script and wires it into the
checkdefaults system as a new 'quorum' monitoring kind on proxmox-host
entities. Runs every 60s via ssh-script, surfaces unhealthy signal when
cluster loses quorum.

Closes the monitoring blind spot that let the 2026-08-12 3.5h corosync
flapping outage go undetected (ping passed, cluster was non-quorate).

Changes:
- seeds/ontology.yaml: proxmox-host declares monitoring: [quorum]
- internal/checkdefaults/defaults.go: KindQuorum builder
- internal/checkdefaults/build_test.go: 2 new test cases
- checks/pvecm_quorum_check.sh: new probe (deployed to hubris + strong)
- VERSION: 0.30.2 -> 0.31.0

// Package checkdefaults derives an entity's default check_defs from the
// monitoring kinds its type declares in seeds/ontology.yaml.
//
// The type says WHAT to watch (`service: [http, process]`); this package
// works out HOW — which concrete check_defs rows to write, and what host,
// script or URL each needs. Deriving config here rather than in YAML keeps
// the ontology declarative and keeps address resolution (which has to walk
// the graph) in code.
