Concurrent edits to shared notes (e.g., one user checks a shopping list
item while another adds an item) were lost because the sync system used
whole-document Last-Write-Wins. This replaces it with a 3-way line-level
content merge using node-diff3, so changes to different lines are
preserved from both users.
Key changes:
- Add node-diff3 for 3-way line-level content merging
- Remove the timestamp gate in processSyncPush that rejected entire
offline sync pushes when another user had updated the note
- Add content merge to both the sync push path and the PATCH endpoint,
using version snapshots as the merge base
- Send baseVersion from the client so the server can find the correct
common ancestor for 3-way merge
- Protect pending local fields during client pull merge by reading
the sync queue and preserving queued-but-unpushed changes
- Add comprehensive tests for content merge, server sync, and CRDT merge

Make db a required first parameter on all service functions (notes-service,
api-utils, tags, collaborators, attachments, rate-limit, sync/server).
This enables unit testing with in-memory databases via createTestDb().
Also removes the NODE_ENV=test bypass from rate-limit and adds optional
now parameter for time control in tests.

getChangesSince was returning the owner's pinned/archived/sortOrder
for shared notes instead of the collaborator's per-user values from
noteUserState. Also filtered trashed notes from collaborator sync.
