Implements comprehensive mdadm RAID array monitoring for Linux hosts
via pulse-host-agent. Arrays are automatically detected and monitored
with real-time status updates, rebuild progress tracking, and automatic
alerting for degraded or failed arrays.
Key changes:
**Backend:**
- Add mdadm package for parsing mdadm --detail output
- Extend host agent report structure with RAID array data
- Integrate mdadm collection into host agent (Linux-only, best-effort)
- Add RAID array processing in monitoring system
- Implement automatic alerting:
- Critical alerts for degraded arrays or arrays with failed devices
- Warning alerts for rebuilding/resyncing arrays with progress tracking
- Auto-clear alerts when arrays return to healthy state
**Frontend:**
- Add TypeScript types for RAID arrays and devices
- Display RAID arrays in host details drawer with:
- Array status (clean/degraded/recovering) with color-coded indicators
- Device counts (active/total/failed/spare)
- Rebuild progress percentage and speed when applicable
- Green for healthy, amber for rebuilding, red for degraded
**Documentation:**
- Document mdadm monitoring feature in HOST_AGENT.md
- Explain requirements (Linux, mdadm installed, root access)
- Clarify scope (software RAID only, hardware RAID not supported)
**Testing:**
- Add comprehensive tests for mdadm output parsing
- Test parsing of healthy, degraded, and rebuilding arrays
- Verify proper extraction of device states and rebuild progress
All builds pass successfully. RAID monitoring is automatic and best-effort
- if mdadm is not installed or no arrays exist, host agent continues
reporting other metrics normally.

Adds automated validation script to prevent the pattern of patch
releases caused by missing files/artifacts.
scripts/validate-release.sh validates all 40+ artifacts including:
- Docker image scripts (8 install/uninstall scripts)
- Docker image binaries (17 across all platforms)
- Release tarballs (5 including universal and macOS)
- Standalone binaries (12+)
- Checksums for all distributable assets
- Version embedding in every binary type
- Tarball contents (binaries + scripts + VERSION)
- Binary architectures and file types
The script catches 100% of issues from the last 3 patch releases
(missing scripts, missing install.sh, missing binaries, broken
version embedding).
Updated RELEASE_CHECKLIST.md Phase 3 to require running the
validation script immediately after build-release.sh and before
proceeding to Docker build/publish phases.
Related to #644 and the series of patch releases with missing
artifacts in 4.26.x.
