feat(agentnetwork): allocate subdomains transactionally, retrying on conflict

Allocation read a per-cluster set of taken labels, picked one, and wrote it
later. That had three defects: the set was per-cluster, which is wrong once
labels must be unique across a shared zone; the read and the write were not
atomic; and on pool exhaustion it appended the first four characters of the
account ID with no retry and no uniqueness check -- and those four characters
are constant for accounts created within roughly the same hour, so two such
accounts could be handed the same label.

Allocation now picks a label and inserts it inside a transaction, retrying
with a fresh label when the database rejects a duplicate, and failing loudly
when the attempt budget is exhausted. A fresh transaction per attempt is
required rather than incidental: on PostgreSQL a failed statement poisons the
enclosing transaction, so a single transaction wrapping the loop would fail
every attempt after the first.

Because the settings primary key is the account ID, a concurrent bootstrap
for the same account fails on the primary key rather than the subdomain
index. That is indistinguishable from a label collision by message, so the
loop re-reads by account before retrying and returns the winner's row -- the
same answer the sequential path gives.
