Tightens HLC drift enforcement to detect backward clock jumps immediately, and hardens
VectorClockparsing against malformed input with extra separators.Changes
NewGuidWithHlc()andWitness()now validate drift bounds after every state update, catching large backward-clock jumps immediately whenThrowOnExcessiveDrift=true:only (Split(':', 2, ...)) to avoid issues with malformed input containing extra separatorsVectorClockCoordinatorusesLocktype consistent with other coordinatorsExample
