The flat instance <select> on Debug View is replaced by the shared
InstancePicker area-tree combobox (design 2026-09-08 §3): the page now loads
the site's areas alongside its Enabled instances in LoadInstancesForSite and
hands both lists to the picker with ItemLabel = "UniqueName (State)",
Disabled="@_connected" and DataTestPrefix="debug-instance".
Both lists are now REPLACED rather than cleared in place wherever the site
changes (LoadInstancesForSite, StartFresh) — the picker compares Areas and
Instances by reference and a new object is what tells it the site changed.
The ?siteId=/?instanceId= deep link and the localStorage reconnect keep
setting _selectedInstanceId directly; the picker reads it on parameter set,
so both paths are unchanged.
