[ Crypto ] Fix phantom reward accrual after period expiry in YieldVault

[Stacylia]

The yield vault contract solidity/contracts/YieldVault.sol uses block.timestamp for reward rate calculations but does not handle the edge case where the reward period has ended. After the reward period expires, new deposits still accrue phantom rewards based on stale rewardPerTokenStored values.

Fix

• Modify rewardPerToken at line 38 to cap the calculation at periodFinish instead of using block.timestamp when the period has ended
• Fix earned at line 47 to use the capped reward per token value
• The notifyRewardAmount function at line 72 does not check if msg.sender is the authorized reward distributor — add access control
• Fix the precision loss in rewardRate = reward / duration at line 75 — use a higher precision multiplier (1e18) and divide at withdrawal time

Acceptance Criteria

• No phantom rewards accrue after reward period ends
• rewardPerToken returns correct value both during and after reward period
• earned returns zero additional rewards after period expiry
• Only the authorized distributor can call notifyRewardAmount
• Precision loss in reward rate is reduced to less than 0.01% error
• Existing deposit, withdrawal, and reward claim flows still function
• Add tests for: reward accrual during period, reward freeze after period, unauthorized notifyRewardAmount, precision verification

/attempt #914

Working on a focused replacement for the closed attempt: cap reward accrual at periodFinish, restrict reward notifications to the distributor, use scaled reward-rate precision, and add mock-token tests for active accrual, post-expiry freeze, unauthorized notify, precision, and claim/withdraw flows.
