c0eb160a4f feat(store): refuse to install a plugin that needs a newer core (#429)
* feat(store): refuse to install a plugin that needs a newer core

`ledmatrix_min_version` was decoration. The loader logged an advisory warning
and continued; the store never compared the core version at all, so a routine
"update" delivered a plugin that could not run. That is the gap phase B6 (the
sports-unification sunset) cannot be done over: deleting a plugin's bundled
fallback while nothing enforces the floor hands un-updated users a scoreboard
that raises ModuleNotFoundError at load and is reported only as one line in
the journal.

The gate lives in install_plugin, after the manifest is on disk and before
dependencies are installed. That is the earliest knowable point -- the
registry carries no compatibility field, so the floor is not visible until
the files are down -- and it is also the chokepoint: _reinstall_with_rollback
calls install_plugin, so a refused *update* restores the version the user
already had, for free.

Floor resolution and the comparison move to src/plugin_system/compatibility.py,
shared with the loader so the two cannot drift. Both read all four spellings
published manifests use, including the deprecated `ledmatrix_min`.

Refusal requires evidence. An undeclared floor, an unparseable version on
either side, or a core below TRUSTWORTHY_FLOOR (2.0.0) all allow the install.
That last one is deliberate and load-bearing: the v3.1.0 release reports
__version__ = "1.0.0" while nearly every published manifest floors at 2.0.0,
so a strict gate would lock those users out of the plugin store entirely --
much worse than the problem being solved. They stay unprotected until they
update the core, which is also what fixes their version string.

Verified: 782 core unit tests pass, including 25 new ones and the existing
loader-warning suite unchanged (the refactor is behavior-preserving). The
install tests drive the real install_plugin path with the download stubbed --
the allow and refuse cases differ only in the declared floor, so the refusal
is demonstrably the gate and not an earlier bail-out.

Follow-ups, deliberately not in this PR: surfacing the reason in the store UI
rather than only the log, and publishing the floor in plugins.json so the
store can refuse before downloading.

Phase B4 in docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md.

* fix(store): a failed install must not destroy the plugin it replaced

Found while validating the compatibility gate. `_install_plugin_impl` deletes
the existing plugin directory *before* downloading, so any failure after that
point leaves the user with nothing. `_reinstall_with_rollback` protects the
update path exactly this way; a direct `install_plugin` had no equivalent.

The gate made this reachable in a new way: a plugin whose declared floor
exceeds the running core is now refused *after* the old copy is already gone.
Floors are hand-written and can be over-declared, so the refusal could remove
a plugin that had been working fine on that core.

install_plugin is now a thin wrapper that renames any existing install aside,
delegates to _install_plugin_impl, and restores it on failure -- including
when the implementation raises, which is re-raised after the restore. It is a
pass-through when nothing is installed and when called from
_reinstall_with_rollback, which has already moved the old copy aside; a test
pins that so the two mechanisms cannot start nesting.

The aside name embeds '.standalone-backup-' because
plugin_manager._scan_directory_for_plugins keys on exactly that substring to
skip backups. A different name would have made the backup discoverable as a
duplicate plugin; a test pins that too.

789 core unit tests pass, including 7 new ones.

* fix(store): serialize concurrent installs, and make the lock reentrant

Second bug found while validating the previous commit on hardware.

install_plugin's new set-aside/restore had no lock. The web UI runs Flask
threaded, so a double-clicked Install button gives two threads the same
plugin_id; interleaved, one thread's restore deletes the other's freshly
installed copy. _reinstall_with_rollback already guards exactly this with a
per-plugin lock, and install_plugin needs the same one.

Taking that lock naively deadlocks. _reinstall_with_rollback holds it across
its call to install_plugin, and threading.Lock is not reentrant -- so the
request thread hangs forever on the standard monorepo update path
(update_plugin -> _reinstall_with_rollback -> install_plugin), which is to say
on every plugin update. Verified by reverting to a plain Lock: the regression
test times out after 10s instead of passing.

The per-plugin locks are now RLocks, and install_plugin holds one for its
whole set-aside/install/restore sequence.

Verified on devpi (Pi, Python 3.13.5, real registry and network):
- update_plugin on an up-to-date plugin: True in 5.4s
- update_plugin forced through the full reinstall-with-rollback path:
  True in 13.1s, correct version restored, old copy replaced, no backup
  directories left behind
- install -> reinstall-over-existing -> failed-reinstall-restores: all pass
  against real downloads
- 22 plugins load, no tracebacks, web API and UI 200, steady-state journal
  50 lines/min

791 core unit tests pass, including 2 new concurrency tests.

"""A failed (re)install must not destroy the working plugin it replaced.
`_install_plugin_impl` deletes the existing plugin directory *before* it
downloads anything, so any failure after that point used to leave the user with
nothing. The update path was protected — `_reinstall_with_rollback` renames the
old copy aside first — but a direct `install_plugin` was not, and the
compatibility gate added a new way to fail late: a plugin whose declared floor
exceeds the running core is now refused *after* the old copy is already gone.
Concretely, without the wrapper: a user on core 3.1.0 with a working
hockey-scoreboard clicks Install; the new manifest floors at 3.2.0; the gate
refuses; the plugin they had is deleted. Floors are hand-written and can be
over-declared, so this could remove a plugin that was working fine.
