/**
* @fileoverview Server-side logic for the in-app self-updater.
*
* Powers App Settings → Updates. Codeman is installed as a git clone and run
* under systemd (Linux) or launchd (macOS); updating means `git checkout <release
* tag> && npm install && npm run build && restart-the-service`. The hard part is
* that the update restarts the very process performing it, so the actual work
* runs in a DETACHED `scripts/self-update.sh` that outlives the restart, writing
* progress to `dataPath('update-status.json')` which the browser polls across the
* connection drop.
*
* Channel: latest tagged RELEASE (tags look like `codeman@0.9.3`). Dirty trees
* are auto-stashed (stash left for the user). Detection is manual (a button).
*
* Split into PURE helpers (semver/tag parsing, reconcile decision) that are unit
* tested, and IO wrappers (`getInstallInfo`, `checkForUpdate`, `startUpdate`,
* `reconcileUpdateOnBoot`) that touch git/network/fs.
*
* DOCKER COMPOSE installs update in place too, through the same script and the
* same status file. The repo is a host bind mount, so the pull/build land on the
* host filesystem and survive container recreation; the "restart" is the server
* EXITING so the container's restart policy relaunches it on the new `dist/`.
* That applies CODE only — a restart reuses the existing container's image and
* config — so `evaluateEnvironmentGate()` refuses a release that changes
* `server.Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yaml` or `.env.example`, pointing at the
* host command instead. See `docs/docker-self-update.md`.
*
* Related: `src/types/update.ts`, `scripts/self-update.sh`, routes in
* `src/web/routes/system-routes.ts`.
*
* @module web/self-update
