compose-candidate reads the indexer's candidate by its group key, not the check's key

mesh/check checking 0bbdae1d9dfb on 27a956448c0a

The checker asks by the composition key, <group>.<heads hash> (ADR 0593 §7), but the
indexer keys a candidate by its group alone (delivery.CandidatesKey). The node-engine
read the ask's key as the bucket key, so every check's composition was refused on
every node with "the indexer holds no candidate" (mesh-catalog #599, 2026-11-02).

It now parses the ask, reads CandidatesKey(group), and answers unready when the
group's candidate has moved to other heads. Both tests' fixtures had captured the
wrong key; they now key by group, with a slash in the group name.

Quick fix: this lookup. Thorough fix (a shared SDK reader that takes a composition
key and returns the candidate at those heads) not taken: one reader, one repository.
