- Fix boostLockCapacity: max_locks_per_transaction requires RESTART, not reload
- Calculate total lock capacity: max_locks × (max_connections + max_prepared_txns)
- Add TotalLockCapacity to preflight checks with warning if < 200,000
- Update error hints to explain capacity formula and recommend 4096+ for small VMs
- Show max_connections and total capacity in preflight summary

Fixes OOM 'out of shared memory' errors on VMs with reduced resources
