- pending_column.rs: split try_to_sidecar into is_complete-checked to_sidecar
  with typed PendingColumnError so 'incomplete column' is no longer conflated
  with VariableList size-bound failures (jimmygchen, dapplion).
- pending_components.rs: get_cached_data_columns filters by is_complete first,
  then logs an error if a complete column fails to assemble (dknopik's sanity
  check on filter_map silent drops).
- data_column_verification.rs: add the missing column.slot == bid.slot
  consistency check in validate_data_column_sidecar_for_gossip_gloas, using
  the previously-defined-but-unused BlockSlotMismatch error variant
  (jimmygchen).
