Primary backup correction and verified Scaleway recovery

The operator reaffirmed that primary backup moved to Scaleway. Corrected the platform scope, Forgejo/credential runbooks and service records: Nextcloud is an independent secondary, not the primary proof for the platform.

Live inspection found Scaleway Barman configuration on apps-pg, platform-pg and platform-pg-2, with successful September 5 backups. forgejo-db, net-kingdom-pg and state-hub-db have no native destination. The current Forgejo full archive helper still uploads only to Nextcloud. Prior account migration did not cover that gap.

Executed the bounded apps-pg restore from Scaleway into a separate namespace. Ready in 42.64 seconds, expected consumer databases present, 13 public tables in coulomb_social_db, and both connection limits remained 20. Production stayed Ready. The scratch namespace and its namespaced resources were removed. No credential value or application rows were printed or recorded. The exact existing S3 fields were copied only within the protected apply stream.

Evidence: docs/evidence/scaleway-primary-restore-2026-09-06.json. Implementation: scripts/verify_scaleway_primary_restore.py. The date is the operator's Europe/Berlin date; evidence retains exact UTC times.

Prepared exact Forgejo primary extension requirements in docs/backup-provider-coverage.md. It needs an independent archive destination, reviewed runtime delivery and full artifact recovery, not just a provider-name change. Existing database restore success does not close the Forgejo or Nextcloud-secondary acceptance gates in WP-0029.

A fresh attended login for the validated Nextcloud secondary archive failed before command handoff; revocation could not be confirmed. No new secondary transfer ran. The encrypted staging from September 5 remains available and no old-share revocation is asserted. A fresh attended login and old-share owner confirmation/custody remain necessary. All 200 repository tests passed.
