fix(systemd): drop the duplicate ensure-swap, use Type=exec and stepped restart backoff [P1]
awg2-harness.service ran ensure-swap from ExecStartPre while the daemon runs it again as the first step of its own startup. Idempotency kept it harmless, but it cost two locks, two reads of /proc/swaps, two persistence checks, and split the startup failure path across two units so an operator reading systemctl status could not tell which invocation failed. The daemon owns the startup sequence, its error contract and its log stream, so the ExecStartPre is removed. The standalone ensure-swap subcommand is unaffected. Type=simple reports a unit as started the moment systemd forks, before the binary is known to be executable. Type=exec waits for the exec to succeed, so a missing or non-executable /usr/sbin/awg2-harness fails the unit instead of appearing to start. Restart policy: the daemon moves from Restart=always to on-failure, matching the scheduler. A clean exit is deliberate and should not be respawned. For the scheduler this was already load-bearing and is now documented - it exits 0 both when reboot.enabled is false and after systemd accepts the reboot request, so Restart=always would have spun it in a loop on any host with scheduled reboots disabled. RestartSec=10s with StartLimitBurst=5 over StartLimitIntervalSec=60 could exhaust the limit in about 50 seconds, which is easy to hit when the daemon is failing because Docker or the container is still coming up - the restarts burn the budget before the dependency can recover. Replaced with a stepped backoff, 10 -> 20 -> 40 -> 80 -> 160s via RestartSteps=4 and RestartMaxDelaySec=160s, and the limit window widened to 15 minutes with a burst of 10 so a full backoff sequence fits inside it. Both directives require systemd 254+; Debian 13 ships 257. Documented alongside, because it is the same lifecycle contract and had no home in the docs: configuration is read once at process start and a config edit needs a restart of the affected service. daemon-reload is not involved - it applies to unit files, not to the application config. ExecReload is deliberately absent, since adding it without real SIGHUP handling would imply a reload path that does not exist. Unit files are installed from the repo root by tools/build.sh, which already runs systemd-analyze verify on the build host when it is available, so these changes are verified there. Not verifiable in this environment: no Debian, no systemd. Acceptance checklist gained five checks covering unit verification, the restart-required contract, single ensure-swap per start, growing backoff, and the scheduler not looping when reboots are disabled.
