Phase 5: Migrate bootstrap and discovery tests

Create organized test structure for proactive sync:

tests/common/sync_helpers.rs (from Phase 4):
- TestClient with retry logic for connect/send
- Event builders: build_layer2_issue_event, build_layer3_comment_event
- Tag variants (a/A/q for Layer 2, e/E/q for Layer 3)
- wait_for_event_on_relay() assertion helper
- repo_coord() utility function
- Unit tests for all builders

tests/sync/mod.rs:
- Module organization for sync tests
- Documentation of test categories

tests/sync.rs:
- Main test harness including common and sync modules

tests/sync/bootstrap.rs:
- test_bootstrap_syncs_existing_layer2_events (Test 1)
- test_relay_replays_events_after_restart (Test 4)

tests/sync/discovery.rs:
- test_discovers_layer3_via_layer2 (Test 2)
- test_layer2_discovery_with_chain (Test 3 - simplified)

All 14 tests pass: cargo test --test sync

+//! Proactive Sync Integration Tests
+//!
+//! This module organizes tests for ngit-grasp's proactive sync functionality.
+//! Tests are grouped by sync scenario:
+//!
+//! - Bootstrap sync (relay syncs from pre-configured bootstrap relay)
+//! - Relay discovery (relay discovers other relays from announcement events)
+//! - Live sync (events sync in real-time after connection established)
+//! - Tag variations (testing different Layer 2/3 tag types: a/A/q, e/E/q)
+//! - Catchup sync (events from disconnected period sync on reconnect)
+//!
+//! # Test Files (to be added in subsequent phases)
+//!
+//! - `bootstrap.rs` - Tests 1, 4: sync from bootstrap relay
+//! - `discovery.rs` - Tests 2, 3: relay discovery from announcements
+//! - `live_sync.rs` - Tests 5, 6, 7: real-time sync after connection
+//! - `tag_variations.rs` - Tests 8, 9: Layer 2/3 tag type coverage
+//! - `catchup.rs` - Test 0: catchup after disconnect (stub)
+//!
+//! # Shared Imports
+//!
+//! All sync tests use helpers from `common::sync_helpers`:
+//! - `TestClient` - Client with retry logic
+//! - Event builders for Layer 2/3 events
+//! - `wait_for_event_on_relay()` - Non-panicking assertion helper
+//!
+//! See `work/proactive-sync-test-implementation-plan.md` for full design.
+
+// Re-export sync helpers for convenient access in test files
+// Tests in this module can use:
+//   use super::*;
+// to get access to these helpers.
+
+// Note: The actual test file modules will be added in Phase 5+
+// For now, this module serves as the organizational root.
