fix(tests): resolve short test performance regression (bd-0v4)

Short tests were timing out after 13+ minutes due to:

1. TestZFCSkipsExportAfterImport spawning subprocess that tried to
   auto-start daemon - now skipped in short mode

2. TestVersionFlag taking 5+ seconds because --version flag did not
   skip PersistentPreRun daemon startup - added early return

3. TestGetVersionsSince* had hardcoded version expectations that
   became stale - made tests dynamic using versionChanges array

Short tests now complete in ~8 seconds instead of timing out.
