5c4cca6cce fix: verify the metadata database certificate with sslmode=verify-full (#235)
Part of https://codefloe.com/rpkgs/bincraft/issues/225. Stacked on #234.

Every connection to the metadata database used `sslmode = 'require'`, which encrypts but does not authenticate the server, so anyone able to impersonate `r-binaries.devxy.io:15432` would receive `PGPASS`.

## Changes

- `.crow/build-all-versions.yaml`, `process-updates.yaml`, `prune-stale-flat-binaries.yaml`, `reindex.yaml`, `weekly-rebuild-reindex.yaml`: `metadata_db_sslmode = 'verify-full'` in every bincraft call.
- `local/*.R`: the same for bincraft calls; scripts that call `DBI::dbConnect()` directly also pass `sslrootcert = bincraft::postgres_sslrootcert("verify-full")`, because libpq looks for `~/.postgresql/root.crt` rather than the system trust store.
- `README.md`: note that the endpoint serves a Let's Encrypt certificate and how to verify it.
- air reformatted three `=` assignments to `<-` in `local/missing-cran-packages-db.R` and `local/packages-without-any-binary.R` while the hook ran on those files.

## Ordering: merge last

1. devxy/k8s-talos#417 must be live: today the server presents an in-cluster certificate from a private CA, which `verify-full` rejects.
2. https://codefloe.com/rpkgs/bincraft/pulls/226 must be released: `local/install-bincraft.R` installs the latest tag, and older releases neither pass a root certificate nor export `postgres_sslrootcert()`.
3. #234 must be merged.

Merging early fails every database connection in CI, and since #234 per-minor reindex failures fail the pipeline.

fix(ci): pass the metadata DB to per-minor reindexes and fail on errors
- Pass `metadata_db_*` explicitly to every per-minor `upload_package_index()` call, so bincraft can drop its implicit production defaults (rpkgs/bincraft#211).
- Replace `|| true` in the per-minor reindex loops with a failure list, so every minor is still attempted but a failed reindex fails the step.
- Give the "Upload package indexes" step of build-all-versions the `PGPASS` secret, without which its per-minor reindexes always aborted.
- Run the CDN purge in process-updates and prune-stale-flat-binaries even when a reindex failed, as reindex.yaml already does.
- Fail local/repair-built-stamp.R when a per-minor reindex fails instead of only printing the error.

## Problem

`arm64/alpine321` and `arm64/alpine322` advertise a broken stamp:

```
arm64/alpine321 :: 22930  Built: R 4.4.0; NA; 2026-07-31 13:35:52 UTC; unix
arm64/alpine322 :: 24696  Built: R 4.5.0; NA; 2026-07-31 13:51:54 UTC; unix
```

The per-minor sub-slots (`contrib/4.4`, `4.5`, `4.6`) are affected too.
All 18 other slots are correct.

uvr matches the stamp's platform triple plus R minor to pick binary over source, so nothing matches `NA` and both slots silently serve as source-only, which is exactly the regression bincraft#85 added the stamp to prevent.
`install.packages()` is unaffected, since it reads `Built:` from each tarball's own `DESCRIPTION`.
The tarballs are fine (`arm64/alpine322/.../dress.graph_0.8.3.tar.gz` carries `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl`), and so is the R that built them (`r-4.5.0_1_aarch64.apk` ships `R_PLATFORM='aarch64-unknown-linux-musl'`).
Only the index is wrong.

bincraft#96 stops a stamp like this being written again, but it cannot repair what is already there.

## Why not just re-run the index update

`upload_package_index()` reuses the slot's remote `PACKAGES.db`, and cranlike's `update_db()` only reparses files whose md5 changed, so entries already in the database keep the stamp they were written with.

Dropping `PACKAGES.db` to force a full reparse does work, and it is what bincraft#85's rollout note suggested, but for an S3 repo cranlike reads each package's metadata from the CRAN *source* mirror on GitHub.
A 25k-entry slot is then 25k requests to raw.githubusercontent.com, with a real risk of being rate-limited part-way through and leaving the slot half-written.

Only the `Built` column is wrong, so this corrects it in place instead: patch the column in `PACKAGES.db`, put the database back, and let `upload_package_index()` re-emit `PACKAGES*` from it.
`update_db()` always rewrites the index files even when nothing was reparsed, so no tarball is re-read and nothing is fetched from GitHub.

## Change

- `local/repair-built-stamp.R` — repairs the generic slot plus every per-minor sub-slot. Dry-run by default; `--apply` writes. The replacement comes from `bincraft::built_stamp()` under the R running the script, so it is exactly what a healthy run would have written, and bincraft#96's guard makes a broken build image fail rather than write a second bad stamp.
- `.crow/repair-built-stamp.yaml` — manual pipeline, routed by `target_arch` to the matching agent group and platform image, with `dry_run` defaulting to `true`.
- `.crow/archive-missed-packages.yaml` — drop the two `alpine321` matrix entries. Alpine 3.21 is EOL: the website advertises only 3.23/3.24 and `process-updates.yaml` already dropped it, so that slot is retired rather than repaired.

## Verification

`crow lint .crow/` passes on all nine pipelines.
`air format` and `jarl check` are clean; the script parses, and the `/opt/R` minor-version derivation was checked against `4.4.3 / 4.5.3 / 4.6.0 / current` → `4.4 4.5 4.6`.
The repair itself is unrun by design — it needs B2 credentials and an arm64 agent.

## Rollout

1. Cut a bincraft release so `local/install-bincraft.R` picks up #96 (it resolves the latest `vX.Y.Z` tag, and #96 is only on `main`).
2. Run this pipeline with `target_arch=arm64`, `OS=alpine`, `OS_VERSION=3.22`, `R_VERSION=4.5.3`, `dry_run=true` and check the reported counts.
3. Re-run with `dry_run=false`.
4. Confirm: `curl -sS https://cran.devxy.io/arm64/alpine322/latest/src/contrib/PACKAGES | grep '^Built:' | sort | uniq -c`

`arm64/alpine321` is deliberately left alone.
