Add one-click agent self-upgrade from the endpoint detail page

An operator could see that an endpoint was behind the published build but
had no way to act on it. update_app resolves against Application rows, and
the agent lives in the version store, so there was nothing to push.

Bridge the two: the staged build is packaged and registered as a reserved
Application row, and a managed PowerShell script is seeded to install it.
The endpoint downloads that package over the existing collector-authenticated
app-package route, so no parallel delivery path is introduced.

The new route prepares the delivery and then DELEGATES to
enqueue_endpoint_command as a digest-pinned run_script. It deliberately does
not implement its own enqueue: a second path would duplicate, and eventually
drift from, the endpoint lock, the Configuration Policy gate, stale-command
reaping and the at-most-one-in-flight rule. A fleet-wide agent swap is the
last action that should skip a quarantine check. Tests pin that delegation
rather than only the happy path.

Because it lands as run_script, the caller needs endpoints.runscript on top
of endpoints.agentupdate. That is intended: this delivers arbitrary SYSTEM
PowerShell by the same mechanism as any other script push. The audit event
is written only on an actual 201, so a refused push does not record an
upgrade that never happened.

Replacing the agent is self-modifying the control plane - the process
receiving the command is the one being swapped. The script therefore
re-launches itself detached and exits immediately, because the agent runs
run_script as a direct child and holds its stdout/stderr pipes while
waiting on it. Expect the command to report queued rather than success:
the process that would report completion is stopped mid-run. Judge the
result by the version the endpoint reports afterward.

Tray relaunch does not use the installer's `explorer.exe <path>` trick.
That works in install-shopdbagent.ps1 only because the installer runs as
the user - note its own `-ne "SYSTEM"` guard. This script always runs as
SYSTEM in session 0, where the hand-off reaches no shell and exits 0, so
Start-Process reported success for a relaunch that never happened. It also
cannot descend into the session with a token-duplicating launch:
UserContextSpool documents that WTSQueryUserToken is blocked by endpoint
protection on these hosts. Instead a one-shot scheduled task targets the
pinned ShopFloor account, matching how the user-context spool already
resolves that user, and the tray must run as that account or the
mapped-drive probe reports the wrong (empty) drive table. The relaunch is
verified by polling for the process rather than assumed, and stays
best-effort: the Run key still starts the tray at next logon, and a late
tray is not worth rolling back a good agent upgrade.

panel_status now carries agentbehind/agentversion/agentcurrent so the UI
gates the action on a flag rather than parsing "(behind X)" out of a label.
The button is confirmed by typing UPDATE, naming both versions and the
service interruption, matching how run_script and system_restart are gated.

Verified on live endpoints: upgraded 1.13.0.0 and 1.15.0.0 machines to
1.16.0.0. run_script delivery, digest fetch and system context all predate
1.13.0.0, so no minimum agent version is declared for this path.

"""Seed the agent self-upgrade script into the ShopDB script library.
run_script only delivers bodies that live in the script library, pinned by
SHA-256. The upgrade template therefore has to exist as a real Script row with
a stored body before any upgrade can be pushed.
The template is source-controlled at
plugins/endpoints/api/templates/upgrade-shopdbagent.ps1 and seeded from there
rather than typed into the library by hand, so the reviewed script and the one
endpoints actually run are the same artifact. Editing the row's body in the UI
is pointless - the next seed overwrites it.
It lives under the plugin, not under agent/, because the Docker image copies
shopdb/, plugins/, migrations/ and scripts/ but NOT agent/. A template read
from agent/ resolves fine on a developer checkout and then fails in the
deployed container, which is the worst place to discover it.
One placeholder is rendered at seed time: the agent application's appid, which
only exists once agentregistry has created the row. Rendering happens BEFORE
the digest is computed, so the stored body and its sha256 always agree; a
substitution done after hashing would fail the agent's verification.

# upgrade-shopdbagent.ps1
# ShopDB Endpoint Agent SELF-UPGRADE template. Delivered to an endpoint by the
# run_script command and executed by the agent as SYSTEM.
#
# WHY THIS TAKES NO PARAMETERS
# run_script executes "powershell.exe -File <script>" with no argument list, so
# there is no channel to pass BaseUrl/CollectorKey in. That is not a problem
# here: an upgrade by definition targets an endpoint that is ALREADY installed
# and therefore already holds its own config. This script READS that config and
# never rewrites it - the values stay exactly as provisioned, so an upgrade can
# not silently repoint an endpoint at a different server or key. A fresh
# install is still install-shopdbagent.ps1's job.
#
# WHY IT RE-LAUNCHES ITSELF DETACHED
# The agent process is what runs this script, and the upgrade must stop that
# same agent to release the lock on shopdbagent.exe (single-file self-contained
# exes are held open while running). If the script stayed a child of the agent,
# stopping the service would kill the script mid-copy and leave the install
# directory half-written. The first pass therefore copies itself to a temp
# location, relaunches detached, and exits immediately so the agent sees a
# clean, fast result. All real work happens in the detached second pass.
#
# REPORTING
# Success is NOT reported through the command result - by the time the upgrade
# succeeds, the agent that would have reported it has been restarted. The new
# version is confirmed on the next check-in. This script's own transcript is
# the local record; see $LogFile below.
