DRILL 2026-08-21: the off-site restore never replays named volumes (R-354..R-365)
Diagnostic only — no code changed, no version bumped, nothing deployed.

The verdict is a mixture. The unit and the off-site snapshot HOLD the data, proven
by identity in both storage classes including two Hungarian accented filenames. The
loss is in the last leg: ReconstituteFromOffsite skips every isUnit placement and the
volume tars live inside the unit, so the off-site full restore has no named-volume
leg at all — while the local restore-from-unit does, and returned the same tar
byte-identical minutes later.

Twelve rows opened, ceiling R-353 -> R-365. Three HIGH:
  R-354 off-site restore never replays volume dumps
  R-355 paperless-ngx's Postgres is dumped under a non-existent stack, so its unit
        has no DB dump, no safety dump is taken, and the customer is told it has none
  R-356 the off-site restore refuses for all 40 no-drive apps saying the running app
        "is not installed", with a remedy those apps make impossible

R-353's instruction (2) is satisfied and annotated: the 40-class DOES reach the
off-site tier. Its instruction (1) stands and is now larger. R-329 confirmed still
live and now the only bad-severity emit fleet-wide.

The off-site full restore has no named-volume leg at all; the local restore has one.
