fix(vitals): HeartRateExtractor weights=[] silent None + BreathingExtractor stale-lock recovery (#1422, #1423) (#1449)

Fixes #1422, Fixes #1423. HeartRateExtractor no longer truncates subcarrier count on empty phases; BreathingExtractor resets immediately on first out-of-band rejection instead of passively draining a stale window (recovery 28.6s -> 6.0s). 64 tests passing, clippy clean, zero regressions workspace-wide.
