## Problem
The "Paths Through This Node" API endpoint (`/api/nodes/{pubkey}/paths`)
returns unrelated packets when two nodes share a hex prefix. For
example, querying paths for "Kpa Roof Solar" (`c0dedad4...`) returns 316
packets that actually belong to "C0ffee SF" (`C0FFEEC7...`) because both
share the `c0` prefix in the `byPathHop` index.
Fixes #655
## Root Cause
`handleNodePaths()` in `routes.go` collects candidates from the
`byPathHop` index using 2-char and 4-char hex prefixes for speed, but
never verifies that the target node actually appears in each candidate's
resolved path. The broad index lookup is intentional, but the
**post-filter was missing**.
## Fix
Added `nodeInResolvedPath()` helper in `store.go` that checks whether a
transmission's `resolved_path` (from the neighbor affinity graph via
`resolveWithContext`) contains the target node's full pubkey. The
filter:
- **Includes** packets where `resolved_path` contains the target node's
full pubkey
- **Excludes** packets where `resolved_path` resolved to a different
node (prefix collision)
- **Excludes** packets where `resolved_path` is nil/empty (ambiguous —
avoids false positives)
The check examines both the best observation's resolved_path
(`tx.ResolvedPath`) and all individual observations, so packets are
included if *any* observation resolved the target.
## Tests
- `TestNodeInResolvedPath` — unit test for the helper with 5 cases
(match, different node, nil, all-nil elements, match in observation
only)
- `TestNodePathsPrefixCollisionFilter` — integration test: two nodes
sharing `aa` prefix, verifies the collision packet is excluded from one
and included for the other
- Updated test DB schema to include `resolved_path` column and seed data
with resolved pubkeys
- All existing tests pass (165 additions, 8 modifications)
## Performance
No impact on hot paths. The filter runs once per API call on the
already-collected candidate set (typically small). `nodeInResolvedPath`
is O(observations × hops) per candidate — negligible since observations
per transmission are typically 1–5.
