Stellar-only conformance test suite

[truthixify]

Tier: M (2-4 days) Type: test

Context

We need parameterized invariant tests proving every public function in the Stellar chain module satisfies its contract. Same idea as a cross-chain suite but scoped purely to Stellar primitives.

Scope

• test/conformance/stellar.test.ts covering deriveStealthKeys, generateStealthAddress, scanAnnouncements, deriveStealthPrivateKey, encode/decode round-trip, view-tag math, signWithScalar
• Each invariant runs against 1000+ generated cases
• Deterministic (no network)
• Run on every PR

Acceptance criteria

• At least 10 invariants covered
• Documentation in test/conformance/README.md
• CI integration
• Any failures filed as security issues (privately)

Files to start with

• sdk/src/chains/stellar/
• test/chains/stellar/

@pharwasz Assigned. Welcome to wave 6.

Quick expectations to make this smooth for both sides:

1. Branch from develop (not main). PRs target develop.
2. Open a draft PR within ~3 days of pickup so we can see direction early.
3. Update at least every 5 days. Silence is the only thing that costs you the assignment; if you get stuck or context changes, just say so on the PR.
4. Read the issue body's acceptance criteria carefully. Hitting those is the merge bar.

If anything is ambiguous, ask before building.
