Add comprehensive direct transaction test for MsgSetPlatformMinimum

This test addresses security report #52897 by verifying that MsgSetPlatformMinimum
can be submitted as a direct CLI transaction and properly processed by the network.

The test includes three comprehensive scenarios:
1. DirectCLITransaction: Validates message creation, serialization, and sdk.Msg interface
2. TransactionPipelineIntegration: Tests full transaction pipeline via governance
3. MessageBroadcastingAndProcessing: Verifies network compatibility and processing

This ensures the message works correctly in production transaction flows,
confirming the vulnerability has been resolved.
