New Props/ctor parameter appended LAST at all three positions - the forwarding
list inside Props.Create is positional and compiles into an expression tree, so a
mis-ordered argument is usually type-compatible and binds the wrong dependency at
runtime. All 26 existing test construction sites use named arguments and needed no
change.
ReconcileDrivers now returns the blob it loaded. It catches its own DB failures and
returns without rethrowing, so ApplyAndAck can reach its success path having spawned
zero drivers; caching on 'the apply succeeded' would persist an empty artifact as
last-known-good and boot the node into an empty address space during the next
outage. Verified: weakening the guard to null-only turns EmptyArtifact_IsNotCached
red.
The store runs in its own try/catch because an Applied ACK has already been sent by
then - an escaping exception would land in ApplyAndAck's catch and emit a second,
contradictory Failed ACK for a deployment the fleet believes is live.
