Every run warned twice because of Steward's own inventory:
- 'Invalid characters were found in group names': the group 'Docker
Swarm' went into the inventory as typed. ansible_group_name() cleans it
to docker_swarm (lower case, [a-z0-9_], never a leading digit); two
names that clean alike get _2, _3 so neither folds into the other. The
group page says what plays call it. The display name is unchanged.
- Python interpreter discovery: ansible_env sets
ANSIBLE_PYTHON_INTERPRETER=auto_silent unless the environment already
sets one; a target or group's ansible_python_interpreter still wins.
Runs are scoped by target set (steward:group:<id>), not by group name,
and --limit is free text, so neither path depends on the name.

Runs read "update.yml on web-1" (run_title over the scope label, beside
describe_scope) on the runs list, the run page's title and breadcrumb, and
the run-started panel. The list shows started |ago (full time on hover),
|duration (counting "so far" while a run is going) and a dry-run tag.
Run statuses join STATES, so the list and the run page use status_badge:
queued dim, running info (blue, so work in progress doesn't read as a
problem), success ok "Succeeded", failed crit, interrupted warn, cancelled
dim. run_started.html leaves its hard-coded colours for tokens; the run
page's facts move to the .kv list and its failures to var(--red). Template
hex colours: 54 -> 47.
Also fixes#5124's sidebar count, which CI run 8389 failed on: the stylesheet
guard allows no weight above 500, and .nav-count asked for 600.

#5014 "Ansible run scope is shown as a raw id"
- inventory_gen.describe_scope / scope_labels turn "steward:target:<uuid>"
into "target web-1", "steward:group:<uuid>" into "group Docker Swarm",
and a deleted one into "target abcdef01 (deleted)".
- MCP run and schedule rows carry scope_label beside the stored scope; the
ansible.run.started audit detail records it too.
- The web run page and schedules table show the name, with the stored
scope as the tooltip.

generate_inventory() emits Ansible's dynamic --list shape (all.hosts is a
LIST, vars under _meta) — valid only as an executable inventory script's
stdout. We were writing it to a static file and passing -i, so Ansible's yaml
plugin rejected it ("Invalid 'hosts' entry for 'all' group, requires a
dictionary, found ...list...") and fell back to implicit localhost → "no hosts
matched". Affected every steward:* scope run; surfaced on the first real
provision.
- New inventory_to_yaml(inv): convert the --list dict → a valid static YAML
inventory (all.hosts dict keyed by host, groups under all.children, group
vars preserved, injected per-host vars like steward_token retained).
- Wire it into runner.trigger_run, host_agent deploy + provision.
- executor writes the file as inventory.yml so the yaml plugin's extension
check reliably claims it.
- generate_inventory unchanged (still the --list dict); conversion happens at
write time. Unit tests added.
Scribe issue #885.
