fix: lower EXPECTED_BLOCKS_PER_CHECKPOINT for CI stability#22480

The epochs_mbps pipeline parallel test expects at least 12 blocks in a single checkpoint, which requires near-ideal timing (72s slot at 5.5s/block = 13 max blocks). On constrained CI runners (2 CPUs, 8GB), block building is slower and only 11 blocks were achieved, causing a flaky failure. Lowered threshold to 8 blocks which still validates MBPS behavior while giving sufficient margin.

## Summary The `epochs_mbps.pipeline.parallel` test expects at least 12 blocks in a single checkpoint, which requires near-ideal timing (72s slot / 5.5s per block = 13 max blocks). On constrained CI runners (2 CPUs, 8GB RAM), block building is slower and only 11 blocks were achieved, causing a flaky failure unrelated to the PR that triggered it (#22116). Lowered `EXPECTED_BLOCKS_PER_CHECKPOINT` from 12 to 8, which still validates MBPS behavior while giving sufficient margin for CI. ## Details Full analysis: https://gist.github.com/AztecBot/7779b7de743711f18899ef57e2060c68 ClaudeBox log: https://claudebox.work/s/6228f03c1549fb57?run=1
