build: update golangci-lint to v2.12.2 with commit-pinned installs

Pin golangci-lint to commit c0d3ddc9cf3faa61a4e378e879ece580256d76e5 (v2.12.2) in Dockerfile and script/bootstrap. Fix the goconst findings the new version reports under the unchanged canonical .golangci.yml by extracting shared test fixture constants and a statusError constant in the watcher.

 # Completed Steps

+- 2026-08-07: golangci-lint bumped to v2.12.2 (commit-pinned installs
+  in `Dockerfile` and `script/bootstrap`); fixed the resulting
+  `goconst` findings. `.golangci.yml` unchanged (canonical)
 - 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints,
  Makefile shims, README Entrypoints section
 - 2026-02-20: iterative DNS resolver implemented; tests made hermetic
