_DueTracker counted a task that had never run from 0 on the loop clock,
which is host uptime, so every run_on_startup=False task (hourly data
cleanup with the Docker log prune, the weekly report check, alert
reconcile, agent age, Ansible schedules) fired on the first tick after
each deploy, while agents were flushing their backlog. Agent ingest was
slow or dropped for a few minutes after every deploy.
start_scheduler now calls tracker.begin(): such a task is first due one
interval after the loop starts.

Guardrails so the fd-leak class of bug (Errno 24 lockup; recent SNMP + UniFi
fixes) surfaces early or can't compound, instead of silently killing the app.
- Self-fd watchdog (steward/core/self_monitor.py): records open_fds and
open_fds_pct (% of soft RLIMIT_NOFILE) as "steward"/"process" metrics each
minute through the normal alert pipeline, so the operator can alert on them
via the existing alert-rules UI. Built-in WARNING floor at 80% gives a
zero-config early signal. Stdlib-only (/proc + resource); degrades to a no-op
off Linux. Registered as a core ScheduledTask in app.py.
- Poll-overlap guard (steward/core/scheduler.py): extract a pure _DueTracker
that skips a tick while a task's prior run is still in flight, so a hung poll
can't stack overlapping runs (which amplify per-poll resource/fd use). A
skipped task isn't penalised — it retries the next tick after it completes.
- fd-stability tests (tests/core/): _DueTracker overlap policy, the watchdog
metric/warning/degradation paths, and a real-fd canary that hammers tcp_check
and asserts /proc/self/fd doesn't grow.

Renames the Python package directory, CLI command, env var prefix,
docker-compose service/container/image, Postgres role/db, and all
visible branding. Marketing form is "Fabled Steward".
Clean break from the previous rebrand: drops the fabledscryer→roundtable
import shim in __init__.py and the FABLEDSCRYER_* env var fallback in
config.py and migrations/env.py. Env vars are now STEWARD_* only.
Heads-up for existing deployments:
- Postgres user/db renamed fabledscryer → steward in docker-compose.yml.
Existing volumes need the role/db renamed inside Postgres, or override
POSTGRES_USER/POSTGRES_DB to keep the old names.
- Host-agent systemd unit is now steward-agent.service. Existing agents
keep running under the old name; reinstall to switch.
