Replace fixed Linux Hopper release pins with current vendor feed metadata,
complete detached-PGP package verification under the stable publisher primary
key, and authenticated package evidence for offline admission. Share parsed
publisher facts across approved setup, doctor and the pre-execution guard.
Preserve existing ownership, cancellation, private-display and cleanup rules.
Fixes#3577
Normalize empty XDG settings, preserve backups during approved cache repair,
and retain publisher cleanup through cancellation and shutdown. Exercise cold
offline verification without reusing process-local proof state. Serialize
approved cache publication across processes, restore old evidence on failure,
and share the existing lease owner from process without changing its identities.
Validation: 438 focused tests (six platform-related skips), full static/documentation checks, real Ubuntu
24.04 official Hopper 6.6.0 setup/CLI/MCP, offline ordinary-user admission,
launcher mutation rejection, and cold/warm verification measurements. Official
RPM metadata mismatch is tracked separately in #3578 and fails closed.
BREAKING CHANGE: Older Linux Hopper builds admitted by the fixed allowlist
now require retained publisher-signed package evidence or an approved update
to the current public demo. Update explicit HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH values when
migrating; the live feed exposes only its current release.

Replace duplicate path-helper checks with real ZIP inventory coverage and replace global memory sampling with bounded-chunk assertions while retaining 64 MiB digest coverage. Await artifact client cleanup, preserve Hopper lease ownership during teardown, and expose typed application failures.
Move artifact inventory, application projection, runtime reconciliation, and TODO scanner suites into their real boundary lanes. Extract Hopper process/socket cleanup cases while keeping injected session cleanup cases in composition.
Validation: all 56 focused tests passed; discovery finds all 876 test files exactly once. Test assertions and provider verification scope are unchanged.
