Port of @jeff-mettel's fix onto the post-#91378/#92902 fleet-restart
shape. The current-profile restart was gated on `launchctl list <label>`
exiting 0 - a booted-out job (plist present, definition deregistered:
crashed helper, manual bootout, failed prior update) fails that check,
so the branch silently skipped: no restart, no message, KeepAlive unable
to revive a definition launchd no longer knows, update printing
'Update complete!' with the gateway down. `launchctl list` is also
session-scoped and unreliable as a loaded/unloaded classifier.
- _restart_launchd_gateway_after_update() (his extraction, adapted):
plist-exists is the ONLY gate; launchd_restart() owns the
bootout/bootstrap/kickstart ladder for every plist-present state;
every failure path is loud and names the manual recovery command.
The gate-error 'except: pass' (the second silent variant) now counts
the label failed and tells the operator.
- Success still requires the #92902 supervision verify (fresh
supervised PID), composing his fix with the returned-is-not-supervised
guard.
- His regression suite adapted to the (restarted, failed) contract; the
old 'unregistered -> left alone' pinning test FLIPPED - it pinned the
bug.
A/B: his suite + the flipped test red on merge-base product code
(silent skip live), green at head. No macOS CI lane exists; field
evidence is #74973's reproductions plus the launchctl print output
shapes pinned in the suite.
