Addresses the round-3 findings from @Adolanium + @kshitijk4poor on #95620:
1. Overlay-before-reuse race (blocker): _real_profile_cdp ran snapshot_real_profile
BEFORE the session-reuse check, so a cold resolve that ends in reuse rewrote
Cookies/Login Data under a live Chromium holding the user-data-dir open (torn
DBs, locked txns, phantom logouts). Now: resolve copy dir as a PATH, probe
reuse first, return early on a hit; snapshot/overlay only on the relaunch
path when no live browser owns the dir.
2. Torn first copy poisoned freshness forever: freshness keyed on isdir(Default),
so a half-written copy (disk full / Ctrl+C) was treated as populated and only
ever got auth overlays. Now gated on a .hermes-snapshot-complete marker
written only after a full copy succeeds; a torn copy is rebuilt from scratch.
3. Consent revocation left copied credentials on disk: turning use_real_profile
off now deletes ~/.hermes/browser-profile/ on next browser use
(cleanup_real_profile_snapshots), so cookies/logins don't outlive consent.
4. Stale non-active profile copies: only the ACTIVE profile (last_used) is copied
into the copy's Default now — other Chrome profiles are never snapshotted
(smaller copy, no stale credential dirs lingering).
5. Docs/config/desktop wording aligned to actual behavior (active-profile only,
refresh on fresh session, consent-off cleanup).
Tests: overlay-skipped-on-reuse + overlay-runs-on-relaunch, done-marker gating +
torn-copy rebuild, active-only copy, consent-off cleanup (removes store +
idempotent + triggered from _real_profile_cdp). 206 browser + 222
backup/file_safety pass. Live: reuse skips re-snapshot; direct launch on the
active-only copy loads the real signed-in Gmail inbox.
