title: Test coverage — meaningful tests for the scale verb

## Objective

Meaningful tests: bounds validation (0, negative, absurd N), authz gate (unauthorized → 403, covered by `TestAuthzGuardsEveryVerb`), suspend-wins interaction (scale while suspended patches spec but pods stay 0), and three-surface parity. Assert real behavior and failure modes.

## Acceptance criteria

- [ ] The suspend×scale interaction has an explicit test; bounds rejections asserted.
- [ ] `go test ./...` green in `lego/backend`.
