feat: the host agent is always on; the MCP sees and starts host maintenance (#5834)
#5834 "The host agent is always on, and the MCP sees a host's maintenance", step 1 of milestone 520 "The MCP sees what Steward has grown". The host agent is a core system (operator, 2026-10-15: "it's very core to the functionality of Steward as a whole and shouldn't be considered something that can be toggled off"). ALWAYS_ON_PLUGINS in core settings makes to_plugins_cfg report it enabled whatever its stored row says, so it always loads and its MCP tools are always listed. Settings -> Plugins shows it as "Built in: always on" with no switch, and a save keeps it enabled. Its code and URLs stay under plugins/host_agent: every installed agent posts to /plugins/host_agent/ingest. Maintenance through the MCP: - list_maintenance_plans: each plan's group, weekly slot, reboot policy, next slot, and its latest run (hosts, how far it got, who it skipped and why, how it ended). - get_maintenance_job(host | job): a host's jobs, newest and running first, or one job: state, packages updated, reboot, drained by, why it failed, when its current state times out. - run_maintenance(host, reboot="if_required" | "never"): admin, as the host page's Update now; refuses a busy host or one with no helper; audited "<user> via MCP". - The overview names a host whose latest job in the last week failed or timed out.
