Stray-copy fix: the capped second-drive copy container never outlives the copy — fixed name + label, removed by name on any error (the timeout included), every leftover removed at start before the scheduler and web server; a restore is refused while a copy runs or may still run; --mount (refuses a path the daemon does not see) and the image ID with --pull never (review); red-proved; unreleased

// The stray-copy fix (night brief 2026-10-23, Part 1). The capped second-drive copy (R-1214) runs `rsync -a --delete`
// in its own container. Killing the `docker` CLI — the copy's timeout, a controller restart, a self-update — does NOT
// stop that container: the copy goes on with `--delete`, outside every guard the controller holds in memory (R-1180:
// no mirror during a restore of that app). So:
//
// - every copy container has a fixed name (one per destination) and the label tier2CopyLabel;
// - a leftover of the same copy is removed before a new one starts, and the container is removed by name when the
// copy ends with an error (the timeout included);
// - at controller start, before the scheduler or the web server can start a backup or a restore, every labelled
// container is removed (ClearLeftoverTier2Copies, each one logged);
// - a restore is refused while a copy runs or while a leftover may still run (Tier2CopyBlocksRestore).
//
// Pinned by TestStrayCopy_* (tier2_copy_lifecycle_test.go) and the web test TestStrayCopy_RestoreRefused*.
// tier2CopyLabel marks every second-drive copy container; its value is "1". tier2CopyAppLabel names the app.
