fix(resolution): cast $3 explicitly in close_paper_position and persist before mutating portfolio

Cycle-10 resolution check found market 562186 resolved (Paxton YES) but the
close failed with asyncpg AmbiguousParameterError: Postgres cannot infer the
type of a bare '$3 IS NOT NULL' in the close_pnl CASE. Reproduced via PREPARE
in the postgres pod; fixed by casting every $3 use to double precision.

The failed DB write also left memory/DB diverged: close_position() popped the
position and credited cash before persisting, so the retry at cycle 20 skipped
the market (pnl=n/a) while the DB row stayed open. Now the DB write happens
first and memory mutates only on success; check_resolutions() also isolates
per-market close failures so one error doesn't abort the cycle.
