chore: back-merge main into dev (release 02.59.00 version stamps)

Reconciles main (released 02.59.00) into dev ahead of the next release.
All conflicts were VERSION-stamp comments/tags in manifests, SECURITY.md
and issue-branch.yml — kept dev's current 02.59.05 line. No functional
changes. Clears the dev -> main merge conflict for the release PR.

# Changelog
## [Unreleased]
## [02.59.00] --- 2026-07-12
### Fixed
- Pre-update backup now fires for **every** extension update/uninstall, not just the first one in a 10-minute window. A coarse 600-second session throttle (armed after any pre-action backup — even after updating MokoSuiteBackup itself or a core Joomla update) was disabling the client-side interceptor **and** the server-side fallback for *all* extensions for 10 minutes, so distinct updates silently went un-backed-up (looked like "only the backup extension triggers it"). Replaced with **one backup per Update action**: a single batch/click still backs up once (deduped per-request), the client re-fire is skipped via a **one-shot** action-keyed flag (consumed once), and the core-update path uses its own dedicated key so it no longer suppresses extension backups.
- Pre-update backup on the **Joomla Update** page is now **seamless** (Akeeba-style): after the full-screen backup runs, the plugin auto-ticks Joomla's "I have taken a backup" checkbox and clicks Install, so the update continues automatically instead of stopping for a second manual click.
- Pre-update full-screen backup now actually fires on the **Joomla Update** page. The "Install the update" button posts to `option=com_joomlaupdate&layout=update` (Joomla's confirm/updating page) — carrying **only `layout=update`**, no `view`/`task` — so the previous match on `view=update`/`update.install` never triggered. The plugin now intercepts `layout=update` (as well as `view=update` and the legacy `update.install`) and returns the browser there flagged `is_backed_up=1`.
### Added
- **Snapshot transfer + master→slave injection (#237):** download a content snapshot as a portable **`.msbsnap`** file (zip of `manifest.json` + `snapshot.json` + a sha256 integrity check); **import** one on another site via a new Import button on the Snapshots page (materialises a local snapshot record you can then restore); and a **direct injection API**`POST /api/index.php/v1/mokosuitebackup/snapshot/inject` — so a **master** site can push a snapshot straight into a **slave**'s Web Services API. Two conflict modes ship now: **overwrite** (replace matching items by ID — master wins) and **create** (skip existing, add only new), selectable per inject call or defaulted in **Options → Snapshot Transfer**. A receiving site must opt in via the new *Allow Snapshot Injection* setting. A third **duplicate** mode inserts everything as brand-new records with **remapped IDs** (articles, categories, modules — plus their tags, custom-field values and featured flags) using Joomla's Table API so assets/UCM/nested-sets stay valid; each item is inserted defensively (a bad item is skipped and logged, never fatal).
- Full-screen backup now also fronts **extension updates and uninstalls** (Extensions → Update / Manage), not just core Joomla updates. Because `com_installer`'s `update.update` / `manage.remove` are POST actions (CSRF token + a checked `cid[]` list) that a server-side redirect can't cleanly resume, this is done client-side: the toolbar Update/Uninstall click is intercepted, the selection is captured, the full-screen backup runs, and on return the original selection is restored and the real POST form is re-submitted. Gated by `backup_before_update` / `backup_before_uninstall`, super-user only, and deduped to one backup per Update action.
- Manual **"Backup Now"** completion now offers a **View backup record** button (links straight to the record that was just created). It appears only for manual backups — the pre-update / pre-uninstall flow hands control back to Joomla instead.
- **Full-screen backup screen** (`view=runbackup`) for both pre-update and manual backups, modelled on Akeeba's Backup-on-Update — replaces the earlier popup-modal approach. Clicking Joomla's **Install the update** now redirects (server-side, Akeeba-style) to a dedicated full-page backup screen that runs the stepped backup with a real progress bar and then **automatically continues the update** via a validated `returnurl` (flagged `is_backed_up=1` so the backup isn't repeated). Crucially, **no backup runs synchronously inside the update request** — which is what white-screened large sites. The dashboard **Backup Now** now opens the same full-screen screen instead of an inline modal. (#196)
- Retention now prunes **remote** copies too: when a backup is pruned by age/count, its archive is deleted from every enabled remote destination (SFTP / FTP / S3 / Google Drive), not just the local copy. Each uploader gained an idempotent `delete()` method (already-absent file = success), and removal is best-effort — a failing destination is logged but never blocks local pruning. The shared standalone `restore.php` is intentionally left in place (every backup overwrites it, so newer backups still depend on it). (#229)
### Changed
- Consolidated backup plumbing into shared helpers (#230):
- New `RemoteUploaderFactory` replaces the `createUploaderFromParams()` copy that was duplicated in `BackupEngine` and `SteppedBackupEngine`.
- `RetentionManager` is now the single retention authority — it takes the global `max_age_days`/`max_backups` fallback and gained `pruneOrphans()`; the system plugin's hourly cleanup delegates to it and its duplicate `deleteBackupRecord()` logic is removed.
- The backend controller, Web Services API controller, and legacy `cli/mokosuitebackup.php` now run backups through the shared `BackupRunner` (gaining the normalized complete/warning/fail status) instead of instantiating `BackupEngine` directly.
### Fixed
- Package installer is now **honest about success**: the postflight no longer prints "installed successfully" / next-steps when the install actually failed or only partially completed. Joomla logs a failed child extension but still runs the package postflight, so the postflight now (a) verifies every bundled child declared in the manifest actually registered in `#__extensions` (matched by element + type, and folder/group for plugins) and (b) verifies the component's schema tables — derived dynamically from the installed `install.mysql.sql` — actually exist. If anything is missing it enqueues an error listing what's missing and stops before the success message. Fail-open: any manifest/DB/IO glitch is treated as "nothing missing" so a transient error never turns a good install into a false failure. Unconditional housekeeping (e.g. download-key restore) still runs regardless.
- Pre-update full-screen backup screen now actually triggers on **Joomla 6** (and 4/5). The redirect matched only the legacy `update.install` task, which Joomla 4/5/6 don't use — they server-side-redirect to the **updating page `view=update`**, which then extracts the downloaded package from JavaScript. The plugin now intercepts the `view=update` page **load** (the last point before any files change) and returns the browser there flagged `is_backed_up=1` so the extraction proceeds after the backup. (`update.finalise` is intentionally not intercepted — by then the files are already extracted.)
- Pre-update/uninstall backup no longer **white-screens** the update on large sites. The synchronous backup that runs inside the extension update/uninstall request now raises `max_execution_time`/`memory_limit` (and `ignore_user_abort`) like the web-cron path, so it can't exhaust the request's default limits mid-backup. (Core Joomla updates additionally get a full-screen backup screen — see below.)
- Archive names for **CLI/console-triggered backups** no longer come out as `joomla.invalid_…`. The `[HOST]` placeholder took `$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']` verbatim, but Joomla's console fills that with the reserved sentinel host `joomla.invalid`; the resolver now treats that (like empty/`localhost`) as unusable and falls back to the configured `live_site` host, then the system hostname. (Set the site's *live_site* to get the exact domain in CLI-built names.)
- Standalone restore script generation no longer aborts backups with `str_replace() expects at least 3 arguments, 2 given`. `MokoRestore::generateStandaloneScript()` had a `str_replace()` call (the "Backup Archive" pre-check rewrite) that was missing its `$php` subject argument, so **every** standalone-mode backup fatally errored while "Generating standalone restore.php…" — the archive still finalized and uploaded, but no `restore.php` was ever produced (the true root cause behind #226). (#226)
- Remote upload: the standalone restore script upload is no longer silent — its result is now checked and logged, and a failed restore-script upload marks the backup as `warning` (previously the result was discarded, so a missing restore script on the remote went unreported while the archive still showed success). (#226)
## [02.58.00] --- 2026-07-06
### Added
- SFTP destinations: **upload an SSH private key file** in the Add/Edit Destination modal instead of pasting it (reads the file into the key field client-side; pasting still works).
### Changed
- Add/Edit Destination modal: wrap the content in a Bootstrap `.container-fluid` and give it a 1rem padding frame via the WAM stylesheet (Bootstrap's `.modal-content` has no padding of its own).
### Fixed
- Pre-update backup now shows an admin notification on **every** outcome (success / warning / failure) — previously a *successful* pre-update backup fired nothing, so it looked like the notification wasn't working. (#192)
### Changed
- Component admin CSS now loads via the Joomla **Web Asset Manager** (`media/com_mokosuitebackup/` + `joomla.asset.json`) instead of an inline `<style>` block.
- "Keep local copy" is configured **per remote destination** (in the Add/Edit Destination modal); the redundant profile-level field and its "Remote" tab are removed.
- Add/Edit Destination modal: cleaned up the cramped padding/margins.
### Fixed
- Admin menu / duplicate-component fallout: (a) the orphaned `com_component-mokosuitebackup` is now removed in **preflight** too, so its "Backup" menu no longer collides on install ("The alias backup is already being used"); (b) `ensureSubmenuItems()` **recreates the top-level "Backup" menu** if it was deleted, instead of giving up — so Backup no longer disappears from the admin menu (and the cPanel module / MokoSuiteClient can find it again); (c) the component menu label now uses the short constant `COM_MOKOJOOMBACKUP_SHORT`. (#213 fallout)
- Installer no longer aborts on MySQL 8 with "This command is not supported in the prepared statement protocol yet" (error 1295). The legacy remote-column purge migration (`02.56.01.sql`) used `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE`/`DEALLOCATE`, which Joomla's installer rejects; the drop now runs in the package installer script via an INFORMATION_SCHEMA-gated plain `ALTER` (portable across MariaDB and MySQL 8). (#213 update path)
## [02.57.00] --- 2026-07-05
### Added
- `BackupRunner` service — a single synchronous entry point for backups that unifies final status and notification gating across the pre-update, web-cron, pre-install, scheduled-task and CLI triggers (delegates to `BackupEngine`; no double-notify). Returns a normalized result including the real complete/warning/fail status. Dashboard "Backup Now" (AJAX) unchanged; installer progress popup deferred to #196. (#214)
### Fixed
- Release automation: the changelog-promote step is now idempotent — it only inserts a `## [version]` header when that version isn't already present, preventing the empty, duplicated version headers that repeated/same-version builds were producing. (workflow)
## [02.56.11] --- 2026-07-05
### Fixed
- Package `postflight` now removes the orphaned `com_component-mokosuitebackup` registration (stray extension record, admin menu items, schema rows, and `administrator/` folder) left behind by the old "Type - Name" component `<name>` — self-healing on update so affected sites reconcile to the real `com_mokosuitebackup`. (#213 follow-up)
## [02.56.08] --- 2026-07-05
### Fixed
- Component manifest `<name>` reverted to the element-safe `MokoSuiteBackup`. The "Type - Name" convention derived element `com_component-mokosuitebackup`, registering a duplicate component and leaving the real `com_mokosuitebackup` orphaned on the old version. (#213)
