Marc Schier b2b4dbb13f [Server] Part 13 Aggregates compliance fixes, full test coverage and docs (#3863)
# Description

Brings the server-side **OPC UA Part 13 (Aggregates) v1.05.07** support
to full conformance: fixes the three genuine non-compliances found by a
spec review, completes value-validated test coverage for **all 37
standard aggregate functions**, and adds documentation. The existing
aggregate engine is a faithful port and was already largely compliant;
this PR closes the remaining gaps.

## Compliance fixes

- **`TreatUncertainAsBad` default (§4.2.1.2).** The server-default
`AggregateConfiguration` (used when a `ReadProcessedDetails` request
sets `UseServerCapabilitiesDefaults = true`) now defaults
`TreatUncertainAsBad` to **`True`** as the spec mandates, in both
`AggregateManager.GetDefaultConfiguration` and the `HistorianDispatcher`
fallback. Behavior change noted in `MigrationGuide.md`.
- **`AnnotationCount` (§5.4.3.20).** Previously counted raw data values.
It now counts **Annotations** per interval, computed in
`HistorianDispatcher.DispatchProcessedReadAsync` from
`IHistorianAnnotationProvider` (endTime-exclusive bucketing;
reverse-time and `ProcessingInterval == 0` handled). Returns
`Bad_AggregateNotSupported` when the provider has no annotation history.
- **StandardDeviation/Variance use all n Good raw values
(§5.4.3.37/.39).** `ComputeStdDev` previously computed over the N−1
sub-regions returned by `GetRegionsInValueSet`, silently dropping the
last raw value. It now computes the mean/variance directly over all Good
raw values in the interval (UseBounds = None), differing only by the
divisor (sample n−1, population n). The population spec-example tests
that used to add a duplicate trailing value as a workaround were updated
to the natural 5-value datasets matching §A.35/.37.

## Tests

- **Calculator coverage is complete for all 37 aggregates** — added
`StatusAggregateCalculatorTests` (DurationGood/Bad, PercentGood/Bad,
WorstQuality/WorstQuality2), the Min/Max `*2` simple-bound variants
(`Minimum2`/`Maximum2`/`Range2`/`MinimumActualTime2`/`MaximumActualTime2`),
and `Interpolative`.
- **End-to-end integration** in `HistoryClientIntegrationTests` over the
live in-process ReferenceServer: value-validated
`Average`/`Minimum`/`Maximum` processed reads and an **AnnotationCount**
write→read round-trip.
- **Dispatcher-level** `AnnotationCount` tests (counts per interval;
`Bad_AggregateNotSupported` without an annotation provider).
- **Tightened `AggregateBaseTests`**: dropped `allowAnyResult` from
`StandardDeviationSample`/`StandardDeviationPopulation`/`NumberOfTransitions`
basecases (now deterministic on seeded data after the D3 fix).
- **Validation tests** for `AggregateConfiguration` per §4.2.1.2:
`PercentDataBad`/`PercentDataGood > 100` and the invalid relationship
`PercentDataGood < (100 - PercentDataBad)`.
- **Cross-cutting**: reversed time-range test (start > end).

## Verification

- Builds: **0 warnings / 0 errors**.
- Aggregate + historian dispatcher + History integration suites green on
**.NET 10** and **.NET Framework 4.8** (cross-TFM).
- Black-box (MCP) check against a standalone `ConsoleReferenceServer`:
both `Server.ServerCapabilities.AggregateFunctions` and
`HistoryServerCapabilities.AggregateFunctions` advertise all 37
functions (§4.2.2.1).

## Notes / out of scope

- AnnotationCount advertisement remains the full standard set with
per-node `Bad_AggregateNotSupported`. This is spec-acceptable: §4.2.2.1
lists what the server *can* support; per-node refinement is the optional
`HistoricalConfiguration.AggregateFunctions`. Conditional advertisement
could be added later as a quality refinement.
- A native-vs-framework-fallback parity test would be useful once a
third-party `IHistorianProcessedProvider` implementation exists; the
bundled `InMemoryHistorianProvider` uses only the framework fallback
today.
