fix: rewrite board-data-provider without null bytes (bash-mount artifact)

The previous commit had class-board-data-provider.php written via the
Windows Write tool which pads the file with CIFS block-aligned null bytes.
Rewrite from Python string literal in /tmp to produce a clean UTF-8 file
with no null bytes.

-### Fixed
-- **Board admin submenu 404 (P0 hotfix).** `PRAutoBlogger_Board_Page::on_register_menu`
-  was hooked at `admin_menu` priority 10, identical to
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Admin_Page::on_register_menu`. Because the board hook was
-  registered first in `register_admin_hooks()`, `add_submenu_page()` fired while
-  `$admin_page_hooks['prautoblogger-settings']` was still unset. WordPress fell back
-  to the `admin_page_prautoblogger-board` hookname; at request time it recomputed
-  `prautoblogger_page_prautoblogger-board`, found no registered callback, and called
-  `wp_die()` with "Invalid plugin page". Board CSS/JS also never loaded (same
-  enqueue-gate mismatch). Fix: parent menu hook stays at priority 10; board submenu
-  hook moves to priority 11, guaranteeing `add_menu_page()` fires first. Board is
-  kept as the first submenu item via explicit `$submenu` reorder in
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Board_Page::on_register_menu()`.
-- **Regression test added:** `tests/unit/Admin/BoardMenuRegistrationTest.php` —
-  three assertions covering priority relationship, execution order, and parent-slug
-  correctness. Includes a "documents the bug" test that fires the unfixed hook order
-  to prove the broken state.

-/**
- * Tests for Board submenu registration order and hook-suffix correctness.
- *
- * Root-cause regression guard for the v0.19.1 hotfix:
- * Board submenu was registered at admin_menu priority 10 BEFORE the parent
- * top-level menu page (also priority 10), causing WordPress to record the
- * render callback under the fallback hookname `admin_page_prautoblogger-board`
- * instead of the correct `prautoblogger_page_prautoblogger-board`.
- * At request time WP recomputes the hookname and finds nothing -> wp_die 404.
- *
- * ## Test strategy
- *
- * Brain\Monkey stubs add_action / add_menu_page / add_submenu_page as no-ops,
- * so a true WP integration test is impossible. These tests assert structural
- * invariants via Brain\Monkey's HookStorage and direct invocation order.
- *
- * ### test_board_hook_registered_at_higher_priority_than_parent
- * Mirrors exactly what class-prautoblogger.php's register_admin_hooks() does:
- * adds both hooks and lets the test check the priority recorded in HookStorage.
- * - FAILS on origin/main (both add_action calls at default priority 10).
- * - PASSES after fix (board at priority 11, parent at priority 10).
- * This test is the true regression guard: revert to both-at-10 = test fails.
- *
- * ### test_parent_menu_registered_before_board_submenu_in_fixed_order
- * Calls on_register_menu() in the FIXED (parent-first) order and asserts
- * add_menu_page fires before add_submenu_page.
- *
- * ### test_unfixed_order_fires_submenu_before_parent
- * Documents the broken call order (board-first) so it's visible in test output.
- *
- * ### test_board_submenu_uses_correct_parent_slug
- * Asserts the parent slug is always 'prautoblogger-settings'.
