test: achieve 100% statement coverage

- Fix v8 ignore comments in 13 purl-type files: convert
  `/* v8 ignore next */` to `/* v8 ignore start/stop */` so the
  String(e) ternary branches are properly excluded
- Convert remaining `v8 ignore next N` to start/stop in compare.ts,
  npm.ts, and url-converter.ts (JSON reporter doesn't honor next N)
- Add 11 tests for uncovered branches: scoped package pattern matching,
  non-wildcard version patterns, undefined namespace in fallback
  validator, empty type in stringify, numeric vs alpha prerelease
  comparison, patch-differs semver, and VERS range lower-bound skip
