Address PR review: subtract-1 encoding and clamp max_hops

2026-03-03T07:37:22Z

- Change > to >= so stored value 1 means direct/0-hop only (liamcottle) - Clamp max_hops to 63 on write since getPathHashCount() caps at 63 (robekl) - Update comments to reflect encoding: 0=no limit, 1=direct only, N=up to N-1 hops Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6
