Collect what bays actually have, separately from what they are told to have
ShopDB knew what a bay SHOULD have and nothing about what it DOES. Adding the
observed half makes a rollout a review instead of a typing exercise: the floor
reports itself in, you look, and you adopt.

The collection uses the mechanism that already exists rather than a new one.
POST /api/collector/printers dispatches to the printers plugin's
apply_collector_payload, the same ADR-006 hook the computers and backups plugins
implement. New client script, new plugin-owned table, no new transport and no new
credential.

OBSERVED AND ASSIGNED STAY APART, and that is the point rather than a detail. A
collector report can never write an assignment row: _reconcile_edges is the only
function that writes usesprinter/defaultprinter, it has two call sites, and both
are authenticated routes a human calls. If a drifted bay's own state were allowed
to become what it is told to install, every configuration error would become
permanent the next time that PC checked in.

Seeding an assignment from observed state is explicit -
POST /assignments/seed-from-observed - because a rollout adopts many machines at
once. It routes through the same _reconcile_edges as the editor, so there is one
write path with two doors, and a queue matching no known printer is REFUSED
rather than guessed into an assignment. That last rule is the lesson from the
measuring tools: adopting on a weak key produced 43 duplicate instruments.

Two fixes on top of what the agents built. The replace deleted a host's previous
rows by exact case-folded name while the read path treats a short name and its
FQDN as one machine, so a PC that changed spelling appeared to hold every queue
twice - which reads as drift that is not there. And the client sent 'reportedat'
where the declared schema said 'observedat'.

Also here: the legacy loader now imports machines.printerid, the classic system's
record of each machine's default printer, which it silently dropped - the
production import would have lost every one. And Set-ShopdbPrinters.ps1 finally
registers the per-user logon task, staging Apply-ShopdbDefaultPrinter.ps1 to
C:\ProgramData first because the share it lives on is mounted only during the
enforcement cycle and the task runs at logon when it is gone.

VALIDATED ON WINDOWS 11 (build 26200), not just on Linux pwsh, which parses these
scripts happily and executes none of the spooler branches.

The reporter: posts a correct payload with the X-API-Key header; resolves BaseUrl
and CollectorKey from HKLM when given no arguments; suppresses the virtual queues
by port; resolves port addresses; and reads the CONSOLE USER's default out of
HKU rather than SYSTEM's own, which is a different and usually wrong answer.

Two results matter more than the rest. With the spooler stopped, both the cmdlet
and the CIM path fail and the script posts NOTHING - verified against a capture
server that recorded zero requests, where an empty list would instead have
erased that host's observed rows and read as a bay that lost its printers. A
genuinely empty host still posts [], because that is a real and different fact.

The logon task registers as the Users group at Limited, and falls back to the
well-known SID S-1-5-32-545 when the group name will not resolve, as it will not
on localised Windows. It was then run with the source directory RENAMED AWAY, to
stand in for the share being unmounted, and it still moved the user's default -
which is the whole reason the script is staged to C:\ProgramData rather than run
from where it lives.

The guarantees against damage were re-checked rather than assumed: an empty
assignment changes nothing, an unreachable server changes nothing, -WhatIfOnly
leaves no queue, no task, no staged file and no registry value behind, and a
drifted queue is repointed IN PLACE with Set-Printer so whoever has it as their
default keeps it.

Not covered by any of this: the driver-staging path, which needs a real vendor
package rather than the class drivers a VM ships with.
