v0.235.0: freeze the version, keep the fixes flowing (operator ruling 2026-09-06)
Slice 3. R-447 was BLOCKED because R-438 established that RestartStack's use of
up -d to pick up template changes was CHOSEN and written down in its own comment.
The operator ruled Option 1, and this implements it.

The rule: while the catalog offers the same version you run, its fixes flow to
you; the moment it moves to a newer version you are frozen until you update.

NOTHING was added to any of the thirteen compose up -d call sites. Most of them
are repairs - the boot reconciler, the drive-return gate, the app-stop guard -
and a repair path that refuses to repair leaves a customer's app down, which is
worse than the problem. They are made safe by removing the reason.

app.yaml gains pinned_images: what the app is SUPPOSED to run. It is NOT
installed_images, which is an observation; letting a reading become a deployment
is the R-166 category error one field over. Four writers, each also storing the
exact definition as applied-compose.yml. UpdateStack advances the pin and
re-renders BEFORE the pull, because pull and up -d act on the file on disk, and a
pin set afterwards would pull the frozen version and report success.

The syncer renders instead of copying, through one nil-safe seam. Catalog images
equal the pin -> verbatim, so fixes and self-healing both survive; they differ ->
the WHOLE stored definition, never a substitution of refs into a newer template
(wger 2.6 needs a DB config the older template cannot supply). This is
deliberately not 'skip deployed apps', which was option B and was rejected.

AdoptPins runs once at boot after the backfill, files only, and skips loudly
rather than inventing a pin. syncer.Start() moved to after it: the initial sync
would otherwise run while every app was unpinned and overwrite a deployed app's
version once per boot.

THE BADGE HAD TO CHANGE OR SLICE 2 WOULD HAVE INVERTED SILENTLY. TemplateImages
reads the LIVE compose file, which is now the frozen one, so the comparison would
have answered Naprakesz on exactly the apps that are behind - with every test
green, because the new field has the same type. It now reads CatalogImages.

+16 tests (1729 -> 1745), 28 packages green. Three red-proofs run and reverted.
A test also caught the syncer writing an empty compose file over a live app.

//
// 1. The observation is INCOMPLETE (stopped, crash-looping, mid-anything). We do not know what the
// app runs, so we cannot say what it should run. Reuses observationCoversTemplate — the SAME
// completeness rule the backfill uses, deliberately not a second one.
// 2. The observation is complete but DIFFERS from the current template. The app is already running
// something the catalog no longer offers, and we have no stored definition for it. Pinning here
// would be right, but the FREEZE would then render a definition we do not possess — and the only
// way to manufacture one is to substitute the running refs into the newer template, which is
// exactly the third-broken-state this design refuses (see AppliedComposeFile).
//
// In both cases the app keeps behaving exactly as it did before v0.235.0, loudly. Absent means
// unknown; unknown is never resolved by inventing an answer.
