zeekayandHanzo Dev e9d5c14f37 configs: state M-Chain's quorum in a form that cannot be misread
mchain.json carried "mpcThreshold": 7 alongside "mpcParties": 10. A bare
threshold number is exactly the ambiguity that produced degree-0 (1-of-n)
custody keys elsewhere in this stack: an operator reads it as the number
of signers, every threshold library reads it as the polynomial degree,
and the two differ by one. Nothing in the VM read these fields, so the
genesis blob stated a quorum that had no effect and could not be trusted
if it ever did.

Replaced by a single "policy" field in operator form — "7-of-10" on
mainnet, "3-of-5" on testnet/devnet/localnet, sized so each network's
validator count can actually satisfy it. M-Chain decodes it through
quorum.Policy and derives the protocol degree from it at one place, so
genesis is now the authority on how many custodians must cooperate to
move bridged funds.

Also renames the vm field from the retired "ThresholdVM" to "mpcvm".
