fix(remote): authorize the attach wake first; tell the caller what happened to its bytes

Review round 3 on #439.

- The attachRemoteSession branch of POST /api/sessions ran `ensureHostAwake`
  before the multi-user gates, so a non-admin could have any configured
  host's `wakeCommand` spawned (or a packet broadcast) and the request held
  for the wake budget, then be refused for the workingDir. The admin gate
  now comes first, before the host is even looked up; remote hosts are
  admin-only infrastructure everywhere else. Route test: wake spy empty,
  403.
- The non-wait input route answers `{buffered:true}` when the registry took
  the chunk and `{buffered:true, dropped:true}` when it was over the cap
  and is gone (`RemoteInputOutcome` gains 'dropped'); additive to the bare
  `{}`.
- The send-and-wait path answers OPERATION_FAILED when the host never comes
  back, like create and attach, instead of writing into the stalled pane
  and reporting delivered:true plus a timeout.
- The flush writes with `fromUser: true`, so a first prompt buffered
  through a wake can still name the tab.

**Remote sessions + remote SSH cases**: a case can point at a remote host. The agent runs inside a durable remote `tmux -L codeman-remote` (session name `codeman-ssh-<id>`, deliberately failing the remote Codeman's `SAFE_MUX_NAME_PATTERN` so an instance on the target host never adopts it), fronted by a LOCAL tmux pane running `ssh`. Attached (`owned:false`) sessions **detach, never kill** on tab close; owned ones propagate `kill-session`. A bounded-backoff watcher auto-reconnects dropped sessions (`remoteAutoReconnect`, default ON). ⚠️ **It revives ONLY when the durable remote tmux session is verifiably still alive** (`remoteTmuxSessionAlive()`, a `has-session` probe over ssh, #355): a clean agent exit (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D, `exit`) tears that session down, and `isPaneDead()` cannot tell it from a transport drop, so the watcher used to relaunch a FRESH agent after every clean exit (claude only looked fine because its `|| --resume` fallback masked it). An unreachable host answers `undefined`, which also means do not revive. ⚠️ `has-session` prints NOTHING on success, so the probe is classified by EXIT STATUS (`classifyRemoteAliveExit`: 0 alive, ssh's 255 or a timeout unknown, anything else gone); reading stdout classified every live session as gone and silently disabled transport-drop reconnects. The answer is cached per session and forgotten whenever the pane is seen alive again, or a stale `true` from one transport drop would revive the next clean exit. ⚠️ **File reads in a remote case are the second ssh surface** (#415, `src/remote-files.ts`): they go through `buildSshConnectionArgs()` as well, a browser-supplied path is only ever a `shellescape`d token, an unreachable host answers 502 (never 404), the size cap uses the REMOTE size, and no remote file is ever copied onto the server's disk — which is why writes, office previews and thumbnails are deliberately unsupported over ssh (the `PUT` guard sits BEFORE the local path validation, or a same-named local directory such as an sshfs mount takes the write). The probe's symlink resolution FAILS CLOSED (a path it cannot canonicalize is a 404, never its own unresolved string: the directory-only fallback let a `notes.txt -> ~/.ssh/id_rsa` link pass containment), and ssh children are BOUNDED by `src/remote-ssh-limiter.ts` plus one batched probe per attachment-history listing, because terminal output in a remote session is written on the remote host and a prompt-injected agent can print hundreds of `codeman://attach` links. The ATTACHMENT routes (a clicked path outside the case dir) go through the same layer, and which host a record is read from follows the SESSION, never the path string. ⚠️ **Command-injection surface: every ssh command line must flow through `buildSshConnectionArgs()`**, which `shellescape`s every user field. Never hand-build an ssh line elsewhere. ⚠️ Run flows must route remote cases through `POST /api/quick-start`, not `POST /api/sessions` (which stat-validates `workingDir` locally and has no `caseName`). → [architecture-invariants#remote-sessions-over-ssh](docs/architecture-invariants.md#remote-sessions-over-ssh), [#remote-ssh-cases](docs/architecture-invariants.md#remote-ssh-cases), `docs/remote-sessions.md`
**Wake-on-LAN (`remote-wake.ts`)**: an optional `RemoteHost.wakeMac` (Codeman builds the magic packet itself) or `RemoteHost.wakeCommand` (single executable path, run without a shell, takes precedence) lets the INPUT route, `POST /api/sessions/:id/wake`, and the user's own create/attach request (`POST /api/quick-start`, `POST /api/sessions` with `attachRemoteSession`, via `ensureHostAwake`) wake a sleeping host instead of writing into a stalled ssh pane. ⚠️ An explicit request — input, the wake button, or the user pressing Run/Attach — and NOTHING else may wake: the auto-reconnect watcher, `handleRemoteSessionDropped`, boot recovery and `cron-service.ts` have no access to the registry (a wake there would re-wake the host seconds after every suspend, and the create wake is wired in the route rather than the shared session service for exactly that reason), which `test/remote-wake.test.ts` asserts as two wiring guards — the second also pins that `server.ts` holds the registry for its LIFETIME only (`drop` on cleanup, `stop` on shutdown) and never calls a waking method. `GET /api/sessions/:id/reachability` merely probes and never wakes. Detection is a throttled bare TCP probe — deliberately no `ServerAliveInterval`, because keepalives move bytes into an idle connection every interval and that is what a byte-threshold idle detector must not read as activity. ⚠️ A host behind `jumpHost`/`socksProxy`/a `ProxyCommand` option is reachability-UNKNOWN (`isProbeable()`): the probe connects to `host:port`, which such a host does not answer even while ssh works, so the registry never buffers for it, never gates create/attach on it (`'unprobeable'`), and `/reachability` answers `reachable: null, probeable: false` — the banner keys on a PROVEN `false`, and the banner's 30 s poller runs only for a host with a wake target (a timer connecting to a host Codeman cannot wake is the same timer-driven traffic the keepalive rule forbids). Input arriving during a wake is buffered (a chunk over 4 KB is dropped whole, never delivered as a fragment) and flushed in order after `reattachRemote()` — a flush write that fails drops the rest (logged) rather than retaining it for a wake hours later; send-and-wait blocks instead. ⚠️ Browser keystrokes travel over the WebSocket, which deliberately does NOT pass through the registry (that is the hot path), so only the HTTP input path ever queues anything — the banner must not promise queued input for the Wake button. A request that waits on the wake (create/attach, and the button) uses the 40 s `REMOTE_WAKE_REQUEST_READY_TIMEOUT_MS`, not the 90 s session default, because the dashboard's reverse proxy cuts a request at its own 60 s `proxy_read_timeout`. The wake fields are re-read from `remote-hosts.json` on recovery and, throttled+cached via `RemoteWakeDeps.resolveRemote`, for a LIVE session, since the persisted `remote` snapshot never sees a field added later. UI: the amber `#hostWakeBanner` (`host-wake-ui.js`) with Wake / "Configure WoL" → `#wakeConfigModal`. The `remote:` SSE family is session-scoped in multi-user mode; a create/attach wake names its requester (`username`) since it has no session yet. `remote-wake.ts` refuses real IO under `VITEST` like `remote-files.ts`.

**Docker cases**: a case can point at a **container**, with any of the CLI run modes running inside it. Like remote-SSH this is a **LOCATION OVERLAY on cases, never a `SessionMode` of its own**. Exactly one long-lived container **per case**, shared by all its sessions, so killing a session kills only that session's in-container tmux and **never** `docker stop` while siblings remain. The workspace is a real host dir bind-mounted at the **same absolute path**, which is what keeps file-routes/watchers on real host bytes and makes the in-container transcript projHash match the host. Credentials are **seeded** (RO mount, copied into the container once) rather than shared RW, so in-container CLIs never write refreshed tokens back to the host, and bind mounts are excluded from `docker commit` so exports stay secret-free. **NEVER a create-time `-e` for secrets, NEVER `--privileged`, NEVER the docker socket.** Config drift is detected via a label hash and a drifted launch is REFUSED rather than silently launched with stale config. ⚠️ A case may instead **ADOPT** a container the user already runs (`DockerCase.owned === false`, mirror of remote-SSH's `owned:false`): Codeman only `exec`s into it and never creates, starts, stops, restarts or removes it, so a missing or stopped container FAILS CLOSED with an actionable message instead of being fixed. Absent = owned, so existing cases are byte-identical. ⚠️ An ADOPTED container may back SEVERAL cases at different in-container directories (`classifyAdoptContainerConflict` in `docker-hosts.ts`: an exact twin on the same container AND directory is refused, an owned container still backs exactly one case, and a container another user adopted is refused), which is what the Add Case panel's "copy an existing case" picker relies on; the wire carries `CaseInfo.docker.owned` ONLY when false, so the picker tests `=== false`, never truthiness. The guarantee is enforced at four independent layers because it cannot be observed by using the feature: `buildDockerStopCommand`/`buildDockerRemoveCommand` throw during pure STRING CONSTRUCTION, `removeDockerContainer` refuses again, drift reports "none" (an adopted container carries no `codeman.confighash` label, so a real comparison would 409 the launch forever), and the boot reaper skips it. ⚠️ Two lifecycle touches the original design missed and that are easy to re-introduce: the full-image export `docker commit`s the container (refused for an adopted case) and the workspace export `docker pause`s it first (skipped — it freezes the owner's processes for the length of the tar). ⚠️ `owned` is applied AFTER `dockerConfigHash`, which takes an explicit field list, or every pre-existing case would trip the drift gate at once. ⚠️ Run modes for a container case come from the CONTAINER (`availableModes`, live-probed): gating the run menu on HOST CLIs (#201) is right for local sessions and wrong here, since a host with no `claude` may run a container that ships one. ⚠️ **A failed probe means opposite things per ownership** — for an ADOPTED case it is a fault worth reporting, for an OWNED one it is the NORMAL state before the first session (the launch chain creates the container), so treating it as a fault hid every agent mode on every freshly linked Docker case behind "start it yourself first". That is why `CaseInfo.docker.owned` is on the wire. ⚠️ Claude is launched WITHOUT `--dangerously-skip-permissions` when the container's exec user is root (Claude Code refuses the flag as root and the refusal is visible only inside the container); which flag to drop is a per-CLI fact, so it is the registry's `overlays.docker.rootCommand`, never a branch. ⚠️ Adoption is **admin-only in multi-user mode**, unlike `docker-link`: linking creates OUR container, whose one bind mount `isWorkingDirAllowed` has already confined, while an adopted container's mounts belong to its owner and one mounting `/` hands the adopter the host. The same reasoning admin-gates the container listing and the in-container directory browser; the preflight instead admits a non-admin for a container already linked to a case they own, because the run menu probes it for every docker case. ⚠️ On the loopback-only prod bind a container cannot reach 127.0.0.1, so in-container hooks need `CODEMAN_DOCKER_BRIDGE_HOOKS=1`; otherwise idle detection falls back to output-based. → [architecture-invariants#docker-cases](docs/architecture-invariants.md#docker-cases), `docs/docker-cases.md` (user guide), `docs/docker-cases-plan.md` (design)
