ntlars-backups: normalize all 147 per-bay .reg files to wjfms3 + IP secondary

Browse Source

FMSHostPrimary  -> wjfms3.ae.ge.com  (was a mix of WJFMS3, wjfms3.ae.ge.com,
                   WJFMS3.ae.ge.com, WJFMS3.AE.GE.COM across 147 bays)
FMSHostSecondary -> 10.233.112.158   (was a mix of WJFMS3/4 short + .ae.ge.com)

Reasoning: eDNC's CPreScan + DNCdll CDoPersonnel resolve FMS hosts via MFC
CSocket, which calls inet_addr first then gethostbyname. Modern getaddrinfo
(used by PowerShell / Resolve-DnsName) succeeds on the GE corporate net for
this FQDN, but the legacy gethostbyname path does not - eDNC sits there
unable to resolve. Pinning the secondary to a dotted IP makes inet_addr
succeed before any gethostbyname is attempted, so the secondary connect
always works regardless of resolver state. Primary stays as FQDN so the
hosts file pin (added in a separate change to common/manifest.json) gives
gethostbyname an immediate hit. Both values fit the 20-byte buffer cap
that CPreScan + CDoPersonnel use when reading FMSHost* from registry.

Per-bay backups are consumed by Update-MachineNumber's Import-EDncRegBackup
at imaging time, so freshly-imaged PCs land with correct values. Existing
PCs are healed by the matching Type=Registry drift-catcher entries in the
v2 standard-machine manifest.
