Why: an update that stops the old process and overwrites the binary cannot
get the previous version back, and a migration the old binary cannot read
must be refused before that stop. CI also had no fixed RDM SHA to build from.
Evidence: python3 -m unittest tests.test_svc_identity tests.test_svc_recover tests.test_svc_deploy_txn tests.test_lifecycle_pin passed. make test-lifecycle exits 2 when AGENT_PG_TEST_DSN is unset.
Impact: installs land in releases/<rid> and current switches with mv -T.
Deploy keeps the desired state and rolls back a non-terminal journal.
Schema compatFloor above the installed target is refused unless
--migrate-schema --confirm is paired with a backup. test-lifecycle fails
closed without PostgreSQL and an RDM checkout. Login stays NOT_RUN.
