Description

Follow on to "GSFCCFS-1845, Replace 32 bit addresses with cpuaddr" and this comment specifically: https://aetd-git.gsfc.nasa.gov/gsfc-cfs/cfs_cs/-/merge_requests/54#note_261737

Basic concept would be to use "real" addresses and confirm CS handles them correctly vs just fake numbers.

Research direction

No source file or existing test is named. Start by reviewing the linked merge request and the earlier cpuaddr change, then locate CS's unit-test setup and address-handling code. Done means adding a test that uses real addresses across different cpuaddr sizes and confirms CS handles them correctly.
