Add a three-process litmus test for the in-flight wildcard window of the single-pass wildcard-flip scan.
P0 models hazptr_synchronize(): it unpublishes the object and enqueues the waiter after its memory barrier. P1 models the scan kthread: it picks up the waiter, flips the wildcard, and performs the final hazard-pointer walk. P2 models a straggling hazptr_acquire(): it reads and publishes the old wildcard, then loads the object after its publication barrier. The forbidden outcome is that the final walk misses the straggler's slot while the straggler still loads the unpublished object. Verified with herd7 (linux-kernel.cfg): Never 0 13.
