[nexus] add test 7.1.3 Network data propagation - Border Router as Leader (#12507)

This commit adds a new Nexus test case 7.1.3 which verifies that global
prefix information can be set on the DUT (Leader) and that the DUT
correctly sets and propagates the Network Data (stable/non-stable) to
neighbors and children in an already formed network.

The test setup uses a Leader (DUT) configured as a Border Router with
both stable (2001::/64) and non-stable (2002::/64) prefixes. It
verifies that neighbors and MED_1 (requesting complete data) receive
both prefixes via MLE Data Response, while SED_1 (requesting only
stable data) receives only the stable prefix via MLE Child Update
Request.

Summary of changes:
- Created tests/nexus/test_7_1_3.cpp:
    - Implements test logic using direct core method calls.
    - Sets log level to note.
    - Configures AllowList for Leader-Router1, Leader-MED1, and
      Leader-SED1 links.
    - Includes 1-line log outputs for each test step.
    - Adheres to requested block comment formatting.
- Created tests/nexus/verify_7_1_3.py:
    - Implements pcap-based verification of PASS criteria.
    - Validates selective prefix propagation based on child mode.
    - Verifies MLE Child ID and Child Update exchanges.
    - Follows requested Python filter formatting style.
- Updated tests/nexus/CMakeLists.txt to build the new test.
- Updated tests/nexus/run_nexus_tests.sh to add 7_1_3 to the
  default test list.
