ClusterNode.AkkaPort and the node's own Cluster:Port are the same fact in two
places and nothing made them agree. Phase 2 dials the row instead of gossiping,
so a node binding 4054 while its row says 4053 becomes unreachable from central
— and the symptom is a silent absence of acks rather than an error. That is the
shape of the Modbus/ModbusTcp and TwinCat/Focas drifts already in this repo.
Since Phase 1 also made the rows the deploy path's expected-ack set, drift
already costs a failed deployment today.
Implemented as the plan's preferred option: an admin-role singleton comparing
rows against the membership an admin node can already see, rather than each
driver node asserting its own row — Phase 4 removes the driver nodes' ConfigDb
connection, so a self-assertion written there would have to be deleted again.
Three shapes, split by severity: a row whose dial target disagrees with its own
NodeId and a running node with no row are Errors; an enabled row with no
matching member is a Warning, because a node down for maintenance is a
legitimate state. Findings are logged only when the set changes — a check that
reprints the same warning every sweep trains operators to filter it out.
Documented limitation: Phase 2 must revisit this. Once the fleet splits into
one mesh per cluster an admin node cannot see site members, and every site row
would report EnabledRowNotInCluster forever.
Sabotage: removing the change-detection guard turns the repeat test red.
ControlPlane.Tests 100/100.

Per-cluster mesh Phase 1 groundwork. Once the meshes split (Phase 2) central
can no longer see a site node's appsettings, so the transport ports it must
dial have to live in a row central can read.
AkkaPort is non-nullable with a 4053 default — every node listens on a
remoting port, so 0 is never a truthful value and pre-existing rows must
migrate to something real. GrpcPort is nullable with no default: nothing
listens on it until Phase 5, and a non-null default would assert a port that
does not exist.
Both are documented as central's dial targets rather than the node's own
binding config; the duplication against Cluster:Port is reconciled in Task 4.
The new SchemaCompliance test is red until the migration lands (Task 2).
