The false default forced every op-node restart to walk back to the finalized head
before driving the EL. On nodes whose derivation lags days behind their serving
gossip head (hashkey us-40: 510k blocks / 12 days), that froze the EL for hours
while dRPC de-routed the sole US provider. true resumes at the unsafe head in
minutes; safe/finalized still verify and catch up in the background. ronin
already ran true per-chain (same lesson); xlayer keeps its deliberate false pin.

Also regenerate compose for already-merged hashkey static-peers / op-geth
static-nodes entrypoint (parent #1437) that had not yet landed in rpc.

Persist OP_NODE_SYNCMODE=consensus-layer and OP_NODE_L2_SKIP_SYNC_START_CHECK=true
so op-node drives the EL via engine API (no EL P2P peers on katana mainnet).
