test: certify mem_arbiter priority order (C.4)
Priority B>C>A>D confirmed correct with distinguishable per-port data (not just "someone got served" but "the right requester got its own data back") across 4 contention scenarios. D-alone case confirms low priority does not mean never granted. Found and fixed a real race in the test harness itself: blocking assignments withdrew loser requests in the same clock edge meant to grant the winner, racing the DUT's own synchronous block -- dut.owner never left SEL_NONE, every wait() blocked forever. Fixed by switching request-signal drives to non-blocking assignments throughout. Documented (not filed as a bug) that D can starve indefinitely under sustained continuous B contention -- standard behavior for a fixed-priority arbiter with no aging, and explicitly outside the header's own stated operating assumption (B/C temporally disjoint in normal operation). Flagged the header's "never starves or corrupts A/B/C" wording as ambiguous about whether it promises D's own progress. Full regression: 40/40 real tests pass.
