Model A prototype (run start.sh AS the manager, escalate only via helpers):
- check_root.sh: accept the manager user, not root-only (init.sh keeps its own
install-time root check).
- init.sh: guard the top-level root-check + installer entrypoint with
BASH_SOURCE!=$0 so it runs ONLY when init.sh is executed directly; when
start.sh sources it as the manager the entrypoint (and its root check) no
longer fires.
Also: convert bare daemon-touching 'docker' calls (no helper -> hit the
nonexistent /var/run socket in rootless) to runFileOp docker across
app_status, app_health_*, network_prune, ip_is_available, check_docker_network,
backup_db (db dumps) and crontab_check_processor. cd&&compose rooted-branches
and 'docker compose --version' checks left as-is (rooted-only / no daemon).
