ci: shadow the label-based reuse key before trusting it (318 step 3)
Additive and inert. Every build now stamps `fc.revision` as an image label,
and a diagnostic step tries to read it back off the channel tag. Nothing
downstream reads either yet — the reuse check still keys on the r-<rev> tag.

The question step 3 has to answer before committing: can the reuse check be
keyed on a LABEL read off the channel tag instead of on a separate tag? If
it can, nothing is minted per build, the -main/-dev identity split
disappears with CHANNELLED, and #3154's base-refresh clobber stops existing
rather than needing a workaround. It also closes a defect found in what
already shipped: r-<rev> tags do not match the registry's keep_pattern
(#3157), so they are prunable, and a pruned identity tag silently costs a
rebuild. A label cannot be pruned — it rides inside a tag that must exist.

Three probes rather than one, because `--format` templating over .Image
varies by buildx version and one round trip per guess is a poor trade.

Two questions, answered at different times, and conflating them would
abandon a working design:

1. Do the template mechanics work here? Answered on the first run — if the
   probes print a labels map, even an empty one, `--format` resolves on this
   buildx and this registry. That is the real gate.
2. Does a value round-trip? Only once an artifact genuinely rebuilds. This
   push touches build.yml, which is in no path set, so all three artifacts
   reuse and stamp nothing. Expect no values this run.

That second point is the migration path rather than a defect: under the real
mechanism "no label" reads as a MISS, so each artifact rebuilds once and is
stamped from then on — one extra build per artifact, ever, in the safe
direction. `imagetools create` cannot backfill it, since it copies a
manifest and config labels are not manifest annotations.

# `:dev` builds were dropped 2026-05-26 to save a docker build per dev
# push, on the reasoning that "operator tests from `:latest` after
# merge-to-main". Restored 2026-08-27: that is testing by shipping, and
# family rules 146/147 now name it directly — `main` IS production, and a
# channel that can only be refreshed by shipping is not a channel. The
# pressure to merge in order to try something does not come from
# carelessness; it comes from `:dev` being unable to carry the build.
#
# All three images build on dev, deliberately: a `:dev` web image paired
# with a stale `:dev` ml or agent is a worse trap than no dev channel at
# all, since the mismatch only shows up as a runtime failure.
branches: [main, dev]
#
# NO tag trigger (milestone 318 step 2). A `v*` tag names a commit `main`
# already built and published; rebuilding it produces the same source under
# the same names and RE-PUSHES `:c-<sha>`, which rule 145 forbids even when
# the bytes match — image configs carry timestamps, so "same source" does
# not mean "same manifest". The release build was publishing nothing new
# and violating an immutability rule to do it.
#
# Releases still happen (rule 148, on explicit request per rule 2). They
# produce a changelog, not an image.
# Requires repo secret RELEASE_TOKEN — a Forgejo PAT with scopes:
# - write:package, read:package (for docker push to git.fabledsword.com)
# - write:release (for ext-<version> release asset cache)
# - write:issue (for future issue-management automation)
# The injected GITHUB_TOKEN cannot be used — it lacks write:package.
jobs:
# Sign-or-fetch-from-cache: signs the extension via AMO if no ext-<version>
# Forgejo release exists yet, otherwise downloads the cached signed XPI.
# Result is uploaded as an Actions artifact for build-web to consume.
#
# Why this lives in build.yml (not a separate workflow): the image a push
# publishes MUST carry the XPI. A separate sign workflow racing build.yml
# leaves that image without one for ~5min (until the commit-back triggers
# another build). Inline ordering eliminates the race.
# Cache strategy: Forgejo Release Assets — picked 2026-05-25 over Generic
# Packages (cleaner API surface) and commit-back-to-side-branch (no extra
# branch to manage). AMO blocks re-signing the same version (returns 409),
# so signing is intentionally one-shot per version.
#
# BOTH branches sign (milestone 271 step 6, 2026-08-27). Not two signatures:
# the version is the commit TIME of the newest packaged-extension change, so
# dev and main derive the SAME number for the same extension source. A dev
# push that changes the extension signs it; the merge to main then finds the
# ext-<version> release already there, hits the cache, and bundles the
# byte-identical XPI into `:latest` with no second AMO call. One signature
# per extension CHANGE, shared by both channels — that is what makes two
# channels affordable, and it is why step 4 (derived version) had to land
# first. Ungating this while the version was still the hand-set 1.0.11 would
# have hit the existing ext-1.0.11 cache and bundled MAIN's stale XPI into
# `:dev` — a dev channel confidently serving old code.
#
# Unconditional since milestone 318 step 2: main and dev are now the only
# triggers, so the branch gate that used to exclude tag pushes matched
# everything. A condition that is always true reads as if some path avoids
# it, which is worse than no condition.

#
# Two questions, answered at different times — worth separating, because
# reading "no value" as "the mechanism does not work" would abandon a
# working design:
#
# 1. Do the TEMPLATE MECHANICS work here? Answered on the very first
# run, by probes B and C: if they print a labels map (even an empty
# one) or a config JSON, `--format` over .Image resolves on this
# buildx and this registry. That is the actual gate for step 3.
# 2. Does a stamped value ROUND-TRIP? Only answerable once an artifact
# genuinely rebuilds. A push that changes no shipped file reuses,
# the build is skipped, and nothing gets stamped — so an artifact
# keeps reporting no label until its own source next moves.
#
# That second point is not a defect, it is the migration path: under the
# real mechanism "no label" reads as a MISS, so the artifact rebuilds
# once and is stamped from then on. One extra build per artifact, ever,
# in the safe direction. `imagetools create` cannot add the label on the
# reuse path — it copies a manifest and config labels are not manifest
# annotations — so there is no way to backfill, and no need to.
#
# Several probes on purpose: `--format` templating over .Image varies by
# buildx version, and one push should tell us which spelling works
# rather than costing a round trip per guess.

# working design:
#
# 1. Do the TEMPLATE MECHANICS work here? Answered on the very first
# run, by probes B and C: if they print a labels map (even an empty
# one) or a config JSON, `--format` over .Image resolves on this
# buildx and this registry. That is the actual gate for step 3.
# 2. Does a stamped value ROUND-TRIP? Only answerable once an artifact
# genuinely rebuilds. A push that changes no shipped file reuses,
# the build is skipped, and nothing gets stamped — so an artifact
# keeps reporting no label until its own source next moves.
#
# That second point is not a defect, it is the migration path: under the
# real mechanism "no label" reads as a MISS, so the artifact rebuilds
# once and is stamped from then on. One extra build per artifact, ever,
# in the safe direction. `imagetools create` cannot add the label on the
# reuse path — it copies a manifest and config labels are not manifest
# annotations — so there is no way to backfill, and no need to.
#
# Several probes on purpose: `--format` templating over .Image varies by
# buildx version, and one push should tell us which spelling works
# rather than costing a round trip per guess.
