The pre-update/uninstall backup runs synchronously inside the extension
update request. Without raising limits, a large site exceeds
max_execution_time/memory_limit mid-backup and the update page
white-screens. Raise set_time_limit(0)/memory_limit/ignore_user_abort
like the web-cron path.

Joomla's console fills $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] with the reserved sentinel
'joomla.invalid', which the [HOST] placeholder resolver used verbatim
because its unusable-host check only knew about empty/localhost. Treat
'joomla.invalid' as unusable too, falling back to live_site then the
system hostname, so CLI/console/scheduled backups get a real name.

Opt-in param preupdate_auto_intercept (off by default). When enabled the
injected update-page script wraps window.Joomla.submitbutton so clicking
the toolbar Update button first pops the progress modal, runs the
pre-update backup, and re-issues the original update task on success.
- Matches only update.update / update.install (not Find Updates /
Clear Cache, which also start with 'update').
- Reuses the phase-1 overlay + ajax.preupdateAck throttle so the
subsequent server-side onExtensionBeforeUpdate backup is skipped.
- The manual 'Back up now' notice remains a fallback for flows that
don't route through submitbutton (e.g. some com_joomlaupdate paths).

The server-side onExtensionBeforeUpdate backup runs synchronously and
cannot drive a browser modal, so nothing ever 'popped'. Add a client
notice + on-demand live-progress modal on com_joomlaupdate and
com_installer(view=update):
- plg_system_mokosuitebackup gains onBeforeCompileHead, which injects a
'back up before you update' notice + Back up now button on the update
pages (gated by show_update_notice + backup_before_update), plus a new
media JS asset that runs the same stepped backup as the dashboard
(ajax.init then a loop of ajax.step) with a dependency-free progress
overlay.
- New AjaxController::preupdateAck() arms the same 10-min throttle key
runPreActionBackup() checks, so proceeding with Joomla's update after a
modal backup does not run a duplicate server-side backup.
- Plugin manifest registers the new media/js folder; language keys added.
Phase-1 baseline (notice + on-demand). Auto-intercepting the Update
button is the planned phase-2 follow-up (#196).

Retention (RetentionManager and the plugin's hourly cleanup) only ever
deleted local files; remote archives grew unbounded. Add an idempotent
delete() to RemoteUploaderInterface + all four uploaders and have
RetentionManager remove each pruned archive from the profile's enabled
remotes (best-effort; failures logged). The shared restore.php is left
in place since every backup overwrites it. (#229)
Consolidate duplicated plumbing (#230):
- New RemoteUploaderFactory replaces the createUploaderFromParams copy
duplicated in BackupEngine and SteppedBackupEngine.
- RetentionManager becomes the single retention authority (global-default
fallback + pruneOrphans()); the system plugin delegates to it and its
duplicate doCleanup()/deleteBackupRecord() logic is removed.
- Backend controller, API controller and legacy cli/mokosuitebackup.php
now run through the shared BackupRunner instead of BackupEngine directly.

MokoRestore::generateStandaloneScript() rewrites the 'Backup Archive'
pre-check via str_replace(ORIG, REPL) but was missing the third
$php subject argument, so every standalone-mode backup fatally errored
with 'str_replace() expects at least 3 arguments, 2 given' at the
'Generating standalone restore.php...' step. The archive still finalized
and uploaded, but no restore.php was produced -- the underlying cause of
#226 (restore script missing on the remote).

The standalone restore script was uploaded to each remote with the result
discarded and nothing logged, so a failed second upload left the restore script
missing from the remote with no warning while the archive still recorded
'complete'. Capture the result: log success, and on failure set uploadFailed
(-> warning status) and log the reason.

Per feedback, wrap the destination modal content in a Bootstrap .container-fluid
and give that a 1rem frame in the WAM stylesheet, instead of a custom
.msbackup class on .modal-content. Inner header/body/footer drop their own
horizontal padding so the frame isn't doubled.

- Add/Edit Destination modal: SFTP key can now be UPLOADED as a file (read into
the key textarea client-side via FileReader) instead of copy/paste; pasting
still works.
- Give .modal-content a "msbackup" class with a 1rem padding frame — Bootstrap's
.modal-content has no padding of its own, which made the modal feel cramped.
Styling lives in the WAM stylesheet (media/.../admin.css), scoped to .msbackup.

runPreActionBackup() only enqueued a message when the backup failed, so a
successful pre-update backup produced no admin notification at all. Now it
surfaces every outcome via the BackupRunner status: complete -> success,
warning (archive made but remote upload failed) -> warning, fail -> error.

- Move component admin CSS to the Joomla Web Asset Manager: new
media/com_mokosuitebackup/css/admin.css + media/joomla.asset.json, a <media>
entry in the manifest, and useStyle('com_mokosuitebackup.admin') in the
profile edit view. Removes the inline <style> block (no more inline CSS).
- Remove the profile-level "Keep local copy" field/"Remote" fieldset from
forms/profile.xml — it is now per remote destination (modal remoteKeepLocal).
- Clean up the Add/Edit Destination modal padding/margins (in admin.css).

Fallout of the duplicate-component element bug:
- Preflight now runs removeOrphanedComponent() BEFORE the component install
recreates its menu, so the orphan's "Backup" menu (alias "backup") no longer
collides ("The alias backup is already being used by the Backup menu item").
- ensureSubmenuItems() recreates the top-level "Backup" menu when it is missing
(via new createTopMenu()) instead of bailing out — so a failed install that
deleted the parent menu no longer leaves Backup gone from the admin menu (which
also broke the cPanel module and MokoSuiteClient component detection).
- The top-level menu label now uses the short constant COM_MOKOJOOMBACKUP_SHORT
(manifest <menu> + enforced/normalized in the script).
