feat(configuration): clarify gRPC replication advertisement

[yordis]

• Keeps replication advertisement terminology aligned with gRPC while preserving compatibility for existing deployments.

[cursor]

PR Summary

Low Risk
Behavior change is limited to configuration naming and gossip-advertised replication ports; legacy settings still work with deprecation warnings.

Overview
Introduces ReplicationPortAdvertiseAs as the primary way to override the replication port published in gossip, with docs framed around gRPC replication instead of TCP.

ReplicationTcpPortAdvertiseAs remains supported as a deprecated alias; GetReplicationPortAdvertiseAs() returns the new value when set, otherwise the legacy one. ClusterVNode now routes internal/secure replication gossip ports through that helper (and fixes internal TCP gossip to use the computed advertise port consistently).

Configuration is covered for CLI (--replication-port-advertise-as), environment (EVENTSTORE_REPLICATION_PORT_ADVERTISE_AS), and YAML, plus tests for deprecation warnings, alias compatibility, and precedence when both are set.

Walkthrough

The configuration model adds ReplicationPortAdvertiseAs, resolves it with fallback to the deprecated TCP setting, and adds tests for command-line, environment, YAML, warning, and precedence behavior.

Changes

Replication port option

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Option contract src/EventStore.Core/Configuration/ClusterVNodeOptions.cs	InterfaceOptions adds ReplicationPortAdvertiseAs and GetReplicationPortAdvertiseAs(). The resolver prefers the new value and falls back to the deprecated setting.
Configuration and compatibility validation src/EventStore.Core.XUnit.Tests/Configuration/ClusterVNodeOptionsTests.cs	Tests cover command-line, environment, YAML, deprecated alias, deprecation warning, unknown options, and precedence behavior.

The new setting is ineffective, so deployments requiring a distinct advertised replication port can expose an unreachable endpoint. Fix this before merging.

GetReplicationPortAdvertiseAs() so --replication-port-advertise-as affects the
advertised endpoint. Replace direct ReplicationTcpPortAdvertiseAs reads in that
