+- `IHistorianDataSource` — server-side historian read backend registration (the HistorianGateway backend) (drivers carry no history capability; Gitea #655)

 Each driver opts into only the capabilities it supports. Every async capability call at the Server dispatch layer goes through `CapabilityInvoker` (`Core/Resilience/CapabilityInvoker.cs`), which wraps it in a Polly pipeline keyed on `(DriverInstanceId, HostName, DriverCapability)`. The `OTOPCUA0001` analyzer enforces the wrap at build time. Drivers themselves never depend on Polly; they just implement the capability interface and let the Core wrap it.
