Subject: [PATCH] ci: add nightly contract tests with long-running tests
 enabled

The test harness gates its RETRY-conformance and FDv2 long-running tests
behind -enable-long-running-tests. Per-PR CI does not pass that flag, so
none of them have ever run for this SDK, even though the contract test
service declares both retry-conformance-fdv1-streaming and
retry-conformance-fdv1-polling.

Adds a nightly workflow that enables them, plus an enable_long_running_tests
input on the contract-tests action to carry the flag. The input defaults to
false, so per-PR CI for the server and client SDKs renders identical params
to today.

The job is expected to fail on three FDv2 tests until those are addressed
separately:
  streaming/fdv2/recoverable fallback to secondary synchronizer
  streaming/fdv2/recoverable fallback with recovery
  streaming/fdv2/permanent fallback with recovery
