ACT-03Offline request and import

What this test proves

Offline activation through the Activator. Everything runs automatically except the portal step.

How it is tested

The test creates the request with the shipped dicomkit-activate.exe 1.0.1 offline-request --key <Pro key> --out <request file>, with the default license store emptied first (backed up and restored, SHA-256 checked); this CLI takes the key only as an argument (a later Activator could read it from standard input), and the command line is never recorded
A person uploads the request file in the customer portal (open the Pro license, Offline activation) and saves the response file next to it
On the next run: import <response> --output <temp>\license.lic --yes, then status --file: expect active, tier Pro
A new process with DICOMKIT_LICENSE_FILE naming the file and the license server URL pointed at a local socket opens ct_mono16_64x64.dcm
Pass if the state is ActivePro and the socket received 0 connections

Expected result for each license type
