Claude 7bab4d23ea fix(scheduler): entry-side check_cancelled in park_current — stop against a QUEUED actor was lossy
request_stop sets the flag and issues a wildcard unpark, but unpark
no-ops on a Queued actor (the pending run "is" the wake). If the
actor's first action on resume is a blocking park — no allocation, no
check!() on the way — the wake-side-only check in park_current is
unreachable: the actor parks with the stop flag already set and no
wake is ever coming. The runtime then idles forever.

Fix: check_cancelled at the ENTRY of park_current, before the switch.
The remaining window (flag lands after the entry check, before the
park) is covered by the existing protocol: the stop's unpark finds
Running / the prep-to-park window, sets Notified, and the park-return
re-queues into the wake-side check. Unwinding from the entry is the
same unwind path as the wake side; leftover wait registrations are
stale-epoch / dead-generation and self-clean at their wakers' failed
CAS.

This is bug #1 of the urus chunk-2 session (bug #2, the terminal
wake, is the preceding commit). Repro: tests/cancel.rs
stop_flagged_while_queued_lands_at_first_park — deadlocks without the
fix (watchdog-bounded), passes in <50ms with it.

//! Cooperative cancellation tests (roadmap item #1, the keystone).
//!
//! `request_stop(pid)` flags an actor for cancellation. The actor realizes the
//! stop as a *controlled unwind*: at the next observation point (a `check!()`
//! / allocation via `maybe_preempt`, or the wakeup side of any blocking park)
//! a dedicated sentinel panic is raised, the trampoline's `catch_unwind` tears
//! the stack down — running Drop guards — and reports `Outcome::Stopped`,
//! distinct from a user `Panic`. Monitors see `DownReason::Stopped`.
//!
//! These cases are deterministic under the single-thread runtime: the parent
//! runs until it parks, so the relative order of `request_stop`, the child
//! reaching its observation point, and the monitor `Down` is fixed.
