feat(event-sourcing): Publish EventStored after successful SaveEvent

Add EventStored internal event published to the EventBus when events are
successfully persisted. This allows observability components (metrics,
projections, audit systems) to react to persisted events without coupling
to application code.

Implementation:
- Add EventTypeEventStored constant to define the event type
- Update InMemoryEventStore with optional EventBroadcaster support
- Add NewInMemoryEventStoreWithBroadcaster constructor
- Update JetStreamEventStore with EventBroadcaster support
- Add NewJetStreamEventStoreWithBroadcaster constructor
- Implement publishEventStored() helper method
- Publish EventStored containing EventID, ActorID, Version, Timestamp
- Only publish on successful SaveEvent (not on version conflicts)
- Automatically recorded in metrics through normal Publish flow

Test coverage:
- EventStored published after successful SaveEvent
- No EventStored published on version conflict
- Multiple EventStored events published in order
- SaveEvent works correctly without broadcaster (nil-safe)

Closes #61

-# Issue: Implement Actor Migration Between Cluster Nodes
-
-## Problem
-
-When nodes join or leave the cluster, actors need to be migrated to maintain even distribution. Currently:
-
-- `handleRebalanceRequest` in `cluster/manager.go:150` is empty
-- `handleMigrationRequest` in `cluster/manager.go:167` is empty  
-- `RebalanceShards` in `cluster/shard.go:211` returns unchanged map
-- `SendMessage` in `cluster/distributed.go:139` ignores sharding
-
-## Required Implementation
-
-### 1. Rebalance Algorithm (cluster/shard.go)
-Implement `ConsistentHashPlacement.RebalanceShards` to:
-- Calculate new shard assignments based on active nodes
-- Identify actors needing migration
-- Generate migration plan with source/dest nodes
-
-### 2. Migration Coordinator (cluster/manager.go)
-Implement `handleRebalanceRequest` to:
-- Accept migration plan from leader
-- For each actor in plan:
-  1. Pause incoming messages
-  2. Capture actor state (replay events up to current version)
-  3. Serialize state
-  4. Send migration request to destination node
-  5. Wait for ack
-  6. Delete actor from current node
-- Track migration status via `ActorMigration.Status`
-
-### 3. Cross-Node Message Routing (cluster/distributed.go)
-Implement proper routing in `SendMessage`:
-- Use `GetActorNode(actorID)` to determine target node
-- If remote: marshal message, send via NATS to target node
-- If local: send to local runtime
-- Route response back to caller if needed
-
-## Suggested Approach
-
-1. **Define message types** for actor migration requests/responses in `cluster/types.go`
-2. **Implement state capture** - replay events to get current state
-3. **Implement state restore** - deserialize and restore actor state
-4. **Implement coordinator** - manage migration phases
-5. **Add error handling** - handle failed migrations, retries, cleanup
-6. **Add tests** - test migration with mock NATS
-

-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- [ ] `RebalanceShards` returns new shard map with actor assignments
-- [ ] `handleRebalanceRequest` processes migration plan

-# Issue: Add Snapshot Support to Event Sourcing Workflow
-
-## Problem
-
-`SnapshotStore` interface is defined but snapshots are not integrated into the event sourcing workflow. This means:
-- Actors with many events must replay entire history
-- No performance optimization for long-lived actors
-- Snapshots exist as API but are not used
-
-## Current State
-
-- `EventStoreWithErrors` in `event.go:235` - no snapshot methods
-- `SnapshotStore` interface in `event.go:245` - defined but not widely used
-- `JetStreamEventStore.GetLatestSnapshot` and `SaveSnapshot` implemented but not called automatically
-- `InMemoryEventStore` has snapshot methods but no lifecycle management
-
-## Required Implementation
-
-### 1. Snapshot Strategy
-Define when to create snapshots:
-- Fixed interval (e.g., every 100 events)
-- Version-based (e.g., every 50 versions)
-- Hybrid: version-based with min/max bounds
-
-### 2. State Capture
-Add method to capture actor state:
-```go
-// CaptureState rebuilds actor state by replaying events and returns it
-CaptureState(actorID string, fromVersion int64) (map[string]interface{}, error)
-```
-
-### 3. Snapshot Store Extension
-Extend `EventStoreWithErrors` to include snapshots:
-```go
-type EventStoreWithSnapshots interface {
-    EventStoreWithErrors
-    GetLatestSnapshot(actorID string) (*ActorSnapshot, error)
-    SaveSnapshot(snapshot *ActorSnapshot) error
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Snapshot Workflow
-Modify event retrieval to use snapshots:
-```go
-GetEvents(actorID string, fromVersion int64) ([]*Event, error) {
-    // 1. Try to get latest snapshot
-    snapshot, _ := store.GetLatestSnapshot(actorID)
-    
-    // 2. If snapshot exists and version <= fromVersion:
-    //    - Return events from snapshot version + 1
-    // 3. Else:
-    //    - Replay all events from version 0
-}
-```
-
-## Suggested Implementation
-
-### 1. Add CaptureState to EventStore interface
-In `event.go`, extend `EventStore` or create `StateStore` interface:
-```go
-type StateStore interface {
-    EventStore
-    CaptureState(actorID string, fromVersion int64) (map[string]interface{}, error)
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Implement CaptureState
-In `store/jetstream.go`:
-```go
-func (jes *JetStreamEventStore) CaptureState(actorID string, fromVersion int64) (map[string]interface{}, error) {
-    // Replay events and build state (application logic needed here)
-    events, _ := jes.GetEvents(actorID, fromVersion)
-    // Need application logic to convert events to state
-    return state, nil
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Add Snapshot Helper
-Create snapshot utilities:
-```go
-// CreateSnapshot creates snapshot from state
-func CreateSnapshot(actorID string, version int64, state map[string]interface{}) *ActorSnapshot {
-    return &ActorSnapshot{
-        ActorID:   actorID,
-        Version:   version,
-        State:     state,
-        Timestamp: time.Now(),
-    }
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Modify GetEvents
-Update `GetEvents` in both stores to use snapshots when beneficial.
-
-## Snapshots Workflow Example
-
-```
-1. Actor has 1000 events
-2. Every 100 events, create snapshot
-3. Actor reaches version 1000, snapshot at version 1000
-4. Request events from version 900:
-   - Get snapshot at version 1000? No (version too high)
-   - Replay 900->1000 events (only 100 events)
-5. Request events from version 50:
-   - Get latest snapshot at version 1000? Yes (version > 50)
-   - Use snapshot as base
-   - Replay 1000->1000 events (none)
-```
-
-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- [ ] `CaptureState` method added to event store
-- [ ] Snapshots created at configured intervals
-- [ ] `GetEvents` uses snapshots to optimize replay
-- [ ] Snapshot workflow tested with long-lived actors
-- [ ] Configuration for snapshot interval/version
-- [ ] Metrics: snapshot count, average replay size

-# Issue: Implement VM/Runtime for Actors
-
-## Problem
-
-Only interfaces exist for `Runtime` and `VirtualMachine` in `cluster/types.go` and `cluster/distributed.go`, but no actual implementation. Actors cannot be created, started, stopped, or have their state managed.
-
-## Required Components
-
-### 1. VM Implementation (cluster/vm.go - new)
-```go
-type VirtualMachine struct {
-    actorID   string
-    eventStore aether.EventStore
-    state     map[string]interface{}
-    version   int64
-}
-```
-
-Methods needed:
-- `GetID()`, `GetActorID()`, `GetState()` - already in interface
-- `Start()` - replay events to rebuild state
-- `ProcessEvent(event *aether.Event)` - apply event to state
-- `Stop()` - persist final state
-- `GetVersion()` - current event version
-
-### 2. Runtime Implementation (cluster/runtime.go - new)
-```go
-type Runtime struct {
-    natsConn   *nats.Conn
-    eventStore aether.EventStore
-    vmRegistry VMRegistry // map[actorID]*VirtualMachine
-    config     RuntimeConfig
-}
-```
-
-Methods needed:
-- `Start()` - initialize and start processing
-- `LoadModel(model eventstorming.Model)` - register domain types
-- `SendMessage(message RuntimeMessage)` - route to appropriate VM
-- `GetActiveVMs()` - return map of active VMs
-- `CreateVM(actorID string)` - create new VM instance
-- `StopVM(actorID string)` - persist and stop VM
-
-### 3. Event Processing
-- Subscribe to actor's event stream
-- Replay events to build initial state
-- Apply new events as they arrive
-- Handle event versions and conflicts
-
-## Suggested Design
-
-### VM Lifecycle
-```
-1. Actor message arrives for actor-123
-2. Runtime checks if VM exists for actor-123
-3. If not, create VM:
-   - Replay events from event store
-   - Rebuild state
-4. Route message to VM
-5. VM processes message -> creates new events
-6. Events persisted to event store
-7. VM state updated
-```
-
-### State Management
-- State derived from event replay
-- No separate state store needed
-- Can snapshot periodically for performance
-- Version conflict handling using existing EventStore
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-1. **Create VM struct** in `cluster/vm.go`
-2. **Implement event replay** to rebuild state
-3. **Create Runtime** in `cluster/runtime.go`
-4. **Register Runtime with cluster** via `SetVMProvider`
-5. **Implement message processing** - validate against model
-6. **Add version conflict handling** using existing EventStore
-7. **Write tests** - mock event store, test state transitions

 ### Events are immutable
 
-Events represent facts about what happened. Once saved, they are never modified or deleted - you only append new events. This immutability guarantee is enforced at multiple levels:
-
-**Interface Design**: The `EventStore` interface provides no Update or Delete methods. Only `SaveEvent` (append), `GetEvents` (read), and `GetLatestVersion` (read) are available.
-
-**JetStream Storage**: When using `JetStreamEventStore`, events are stored in a NATS JetStream stream configured with:
-- File-based storage (durable)
-- Limits-based retention policy (events expire after configured duration, not before)
-- No mechanism to modify or delete individual events during their lifetime
-
-**Audit Trail Guarantee**: Because events are immutable once persisted, they serve as a trustworthy audit trail. You can rely on the fact that historical events won't change, enabling compliance and forensics.
-
-To correct a mistake, append a new event that expresses the correction rather than modifying history:

-# Aether Examples
-
-This directory contains examples demonstrating common patterns for using Aether.
-
-## Retry Patterns (`retry_patterns.go`)
-
-When saving events with optimistic concurrency control, your application may encounter `VersionConflictError` when multiple writers attempt to update the same actor concurrently. This file demonstrates several retry strategies.
-
-### Pattern Overview
-
-All retry patterns work with `VersionConflictError` which provides three critical fields:
-
-- **ActorID**: The actor that experienced the conflict
-- **CurrentVersion**: The latest version in the store
-- **AttemptedVersion**: The version you tried to save
-
-Your application can read these fields to make intelligent retry decisions.
-
-### Available Patterns
-
-#### SimpleRetryPattern
-
-The most basic pattern - just retry with exponential backoff:
-
-```go
-// Automatically retries up to 3 times with exponential backoff
-err := SimpleRetryPattern(store, "order-123", "OrderUpdated")
-```
-
-**Use when**: You want a straightforward retry mechanism without complex logic.
-
-#### ConflictDetailedRetryPattern
-
-Extracts detailed information from the conflict error to make smarter decisions:
-
-```go
-// Detects thrashing (multiple conflicts at same version)
-// and can implement circuit-breaker logic
-err := ConflictDetailedRetryPattern(store, "order-123", "OrderUpdated")
-```
-
-**Use when**: You need visibility into conflict patterns and want to detect system issues like thrashing.
-
-#### JitterRetryPattern
-
-Adds randomized jitter to prevent "thundering herd" when multiple writers retry:
-
-```go
-// Exponential backoff with jitter prevents synchronized retries
-err := JitterRetryPattern(store, "order-123", "OrderUpdated")
-```
-
-**Use when**: You have high concurrency and want to prevent all writers from retrying at the same time.
-
-#### AdaptiveRetryPattern
-
-Adjusts backoff duration based on version distance (indicator of contention):
-
-```go
-// Light contention (gap=1): 50ms backoff
-// Moderate contention (gap=3-10): proportional backoff
-// High contention (gap>10): aggressive backoff
-err := AdaptiveRetryPattern(store, "order-123", "OrderUpdated")
-```
-
-**Use when**: You want backoff strategy to respond to actual system load.
-
-#### EventualConsistencyPattern
-
-Instead of blocking on retry, queues the event for asynchronous retry:
-
-```go
-// Returns immediately, event is queued for background retry
-EventualConsistencyPattern(store, retryQueue, event)
-
-// Background worker processes the queue
-for item := range retryQueue {
-    // Implement your own retry logic here
-}
-```
-
-**Use when**: You can't afford to block the request, and background retry is acceptable.
-
-#### CircuitBreakerPattern
-
-Implements a circuit breaker to prevent cascading failures:
-
-```go
-cb := NewCircuitBreaker()
-
-// Fails fast when circuit is open
-err := CircuitBreakerRetryPattern(store, cb, "order-123", "OrderUpdated")
-if err != nil && !cb.CanRetry() {
-    return ErrCircuitBreakerOpen
-}
-```
-
-**Use when**: You have a distributed system and want to prevent retry storms during outages.
-
-## Common Pattern: Extract and Log Context
-
-All patterns can read context from `VersionConflictError`:
-
-```go
-var versionErr *aether.VersionConflictError
-if errors.As(err, &versionErr) {
-    log.Printf(
-        "Conflict for actor %q: attempted %d, current %d",
-        versionErr.ActorID,
-        versionErr.AttemptedVersion,
-        versionErr.CurrentVersion,
-    )
-}
-```
-
-## Sentinel Error Check
-
-Check if an error is a version conflict without examining the struct:
-
-```go
-if errors.Is(err, aether.ErrVersionConflict) {
-    // This is a version conflict - retry is appropriate
-}
-```
-
-## Implementing Your Own Pattern
-
-Basic template:
-
-```go
-for attempt := 0; attempt < maxRetries; attempt++ {
-    // 1. Get current version
-    currentVersion, err := store.GetLatestVersion(actorID)
-    if err != nil {
-        return err
-    }
-
-    // 2. Create event with next version
-    event := &aether.Event{
-        ActorID:   actorID,
-        Version:   currentVersion + 1,
-        // ... other fields
-    }
-
-    // 3. Attempt save
-    err = store.SaveEvent(event)
-    if err == nil {
-        return nil // Success
-    }
-
-    // 4. Check if it's a conflict
-    if !errors.Is(err, aether.ErrVersionConflict) {
-        return err // Some other error
-    }
-
-    // 5. Implement your retry strategy
-    time.Sleep(yourBackoff(attempt))
-}
-```
-
-## Choosing a Pattern
-
-| Pattern | Latency | Throughput | Complexity | Use Case |
-|---------|---------|-----------|-----------|----------|
-| Simple | Low | Low | Very Low | Single writer, testing |
-| DetailedConflict | Low | Medium | Medium | Debugging, monitoring |
-| Jitter | Low-Medium | High | Low | Multi-writer concurrency |
-| Adaptive | Low-Medium | High | Medium | Variable load scenarios |
-| EventualConsistency | Very Low | Very High | High | High-volume, async-OK workloads |
-| CircuitBreaker | Variable | Stable | High | Distributed, failure-resilient systems |
-
-## Performance Considerations
-
-1. **Backoff timing**: Shorter backoffs waste CPU on retries, longer backoffs increase latency
-2. **Retry limits**: Too few retries give up too early, too many waste resources
-3. **Jitter**: Essential for preventing synchronized retries in high-concurrency scenarios
-4. **Monitoring**: Track retry rates and conflict patterns to detect system issues
-
-## Testing
-
-Use `aether.NewInMemoryEventStore()` in tests:
-
-```go
-store := store.NewInMemoryEventStore()
-err := SimpleRetryPattern(store, "test-actor", "TestEvent")
-if err != nil {
-    t.Fatalf("retry pattern failed: %v", err)
-}
-```
