Subject: [PATCH] Keep fuzzing test runnable when fast-check is not installed

Make the fuzzing suite gracefully skip property checks when fast-check is unavailable so basic test runs do not fail on missing optional dependency.

Constraint: Preserve fuzz assertions when fast-check exists while avoiding hard dependency failures

Rejected: Add fast-check as mandatory dependency | increases install footprint for non-fuzz workflows

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: narrow

Reversibility: clean

Directive: Treat fast-check as optional in this test file unless explicitly promoted to required dependency

Tested: node --test test/fuzzing.test.js

Not-tested: full npm test suite
