host-install: add --skip-provision (agent-only install/verify path)

Install + configure + verify the agent (incl. golden fetch+verify) without
provisioning a guest — for re-installing/upgrading the agent on a host with live
guests, and the agent-only live test. Adds step_verify_agent (binary + non-root
service active + --selftest=hub).

 - **New step `7/8 golden`:** local auto-discovery stays the default/fallback; otherwise fetches
   `/api/packages/admin/generic/felhom-golden/<ver>/golden.tar.zst`, **verifies sha256**, and imports it
   into the archive storage's dump dir for the restore. `--force-gitea-golden` forces the Gitea path.
