poster: rankByLRU ignores dry-run entries (Cody FIX-FIRST)

A dry-tested film (e.g. funke) was being treated as 'posted' by the live LRU
rotation, so it would be skipped on its real turn and the calendar projection
diverged. Live rotation now counts only dryRun:false posts. Verified: next
restaurant pick is now Funke (was wrongly Mr. Chow).
