Add deferred monitor write support to chanmon_consistency fuzz target

Add a `deferred` flag to `TestChainMonitor` that controls whether the
underlying `ChainMonitor` queues operations instead of executing them
immediately. The flag is derived from the fuzz input alongside the
existing monitor style bits, so each of the three nodes can
independently run in deferred or immediate mode.

In deferred mode, `watch_channel` and `update_channel` always return
`InProgress`. A new `flush_and_update_latest_monitors` method drains
the queued operations and, when the persister reports `Completed`,
promotes the pending shadow monitor snapshots to persisted state.
This method is called before `release_pending_monitor_events` and
at each point where the fuzzer completes pending monitor updates.

On node reload, deferred monitors are flushed immediately after
`watch_channel` so the node starts with a consistent state.
