Fire a synthetic test delivery
Enqueues a real, signed delivery with a fixture payload to exercise the receiver. The AurousEvent envelope carries synthetic: true so receivers can filter test fires from production traffic. Independent rate limit bucket (webhooks_test, 30/min) so it does not contend with normal webhook traffic.
