What:
Added a helper on HttpLogMessage to detect _specmatic control paths plus HEAD / and GET /actuator/health, gated MockEvent emission in HttpStub, and expanded tests to cover the new behavior along with the parameterized predicate check.

Why:
Internal control traffic was surfacing in mock-listener-driven UIs; we now suppress those events while preserving logging and normal behavior.

How:
Gated the listener notification path with isInternalControlRequestForMockEvent, added regression tests for listener suppression and the predicate, and adjusted Gradle JVM settings to keep resource usage aligned with the change.

Summary

• Gate MockEvent emission from HttpStub so _specmatic/*, HEAD /, and GET /actuator/health stay out of listener-driven interfaces while keeping logs intact.
• Added parameterized detection tests and listener regression tests to ensure the new predicate behaves as expected.
• Reduced JVM heap flags in gradle.properties to match current resource expectations.

• Not run (not requested)
