bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5.5 4054bf6bbb feat(host-agent): updates on pacman, zypper and yum hosts (#5803, #5804) ...

Agent 1.21.0. The hourly update check now covers the package managers
beyond apt and dnf (#5803 "The agent's update check reads pacman,
zypper and yum"):
- yum: `yum -C check-update`, `updateinfo list security`,
  `needs-restarting -r`, as dnf.
- zypper: `--no-refresh list-updates` (`--dup` on Tumbleweed),
  needed security patches from `list-patches --category security`,
  and `zypper needs-rebooting`.
- pacman: `checkupdates` from pacman-contrib, which install-deps.sh now
  installs. pacman has no security notion; a reboot is required once
  the running kernel's /usr/lib/modules/<release> is gone.
The checks sit in one UPDATE_CHECKS table, and a failure names its
manager.

The root helper's update runs on the same hosts (#5804 "The scheduled
update runs on pacman, zypper and yum hosts"): yum upgrade, zypper
refresh + update (dup on Tumbleweed, with 102/103 counted as success),
pacman -Syu. Each step carries a label so a failure says which one,
and the reboot check reads zypper and the pacman kernel too.
