ScottW514 0e37b0812e acceptance: a later FAIL blocks inheritance, ffboot is a component, the units fallback is valid
The inheritance walk skipped every record that was not a PASS on the
current fingerprint, so a FAIL or ERROR recorded after a PASS on the
same image was stepped over and the older PASS inherited into the next
campaign. The newest record on the fingerprint now decides: a PASS is
inherited, a FAIL or ERROR blocks it (reason failed-since), an ABORTED
run says nothing. Unit tests for all three orders.

ffboot, the tool that rewrites the boot environment on every install and
slot switch, was packaged from scripts/ outside every fingerprint. It
now lives in the recipe's files and the recipe inherits the manifest
class; the tree manifest tool fingerprints file components the same
way, and the update tests cover the component.

forgectrl.settings-bounds fell back to ui_units=mm, which the whitelist
refuses, so the always-required test failed on a fresh machine; the
fallback is metric.

ScottW514 11fec891ed ffboot v2: slot inventory, verified atomic env flips, target probe
-l inventories every bootable partition (SD, eMMC slots 1/2, legacy
p4) as machine-parsable key=value lines: firmware type
(forgefirm/factory), version, kernel presence, booted/next markers,
plus the saved-env selection - the shared probe for the installer and
the forgectrl update manager.

Boot switching now writes all four selection variables (mmcdev,
mmchwpart, mmcpart, mmcroot) in one fw_setenv -s transaction and
read-back verifies, falling back from the libubootenv script format
to the classic u-boot-tools format to per-variable writes - the same
script works on factory firmware and ForgeFIRM. mmchwpart was
previously never set and a mixed env could survive a mid-flip power
cut. Switch targets must pass a content probe (rootfs mounts, kernel
present) unless -f. -e picks the newest factory slot by probing,
excluding slots occupied by ForgeFIRM.

The new ffboot recipe installs it as /usr/sbin/ffboot with
/etc/fw_env.config (factory-identical redundant env layout at eMMC
0x80000/0x82000) - previously the image shipped fw_setenv with no
config. Added to forgefirm-image.
