136086: Graduate watch_list_duration_seconds to Beta
This PR graduates the watch_list_duration_seconds metric to Beta. Previously, the metric was Alpha and not guaranteed to remain stable. With this change, the metric’s behavior and labels are now considered stable, making it safe for long-term monitoring, alerting, and observability tooling.
136117: Enable declarative-native validation for API strategies
This PR adds utilities that allow API strategy.go files to opt into declarative-native validation. Native declarative validations now run even when the DeclarativeValidation feature gate is disabled, ensuring critical IDL-defined rules are always enforced and preventing validation bypasses due to misconfiguration or panics.
