zeekay b8a2dbf1e7 feat(quasar): implement BLS + PQ fusion signature for event horizons
Implement proper fusion signature in createHorizonSignature:
- Create 64-byte signature: 32-byte BLS hash + 32-byte PQ hash
- Hash checkpoint and validators into message
- Apply key-derived signatures for both components
- Document that full threshold signing uses Quasar.hybridConsensus

Update tests to verify:
- Correct signature length (64 bytes)
- Deterministic output
- Different inputs produce different signatures

Also includes GPU batch pipeline for consensus engine.
