Two fixes for the race where the browser opens report.html before any
VM has registered:
- Orchestrator seeds state.json with {"running":true,"vms":{}} the
instant OutDir is created, so a refresh before the first VM is added
still has a "running" signal.
- report.py treats missing state.json as RUNNING (not FAIL), and a VM
with a non-done stage but no install-status file as RUNNING in its
per-VM badge.

backend: move load_all_plugins(app) inside the with app.app_context()
block, after MigrationService.check_and_prepare(app). The loader queries
the installed_plugins table; previously it ran before migrations created
that table, causing "no such table: installed_plugins" errors in journal
on every cold start. Surfaced by the new E2E harness (visible in the
journalctl pane of the report).
scripts/test: live HTML report.
- Orchestrator writes state.json after each phase + regenerates
report.html, so opening the page shows real-time progress.
- Browser auto-opens the report when the run starts; page auto-refreshes
every 8s while a run is in progress.
- Added per-VM 'Stage' field (pending -> transferring source ->
installing -> running pytest -> done).
- Fixed empty "Details" cells rendering as black boxes; now show "-".
- Pulsing dot indicator in the live banner.

Fixes a cascade of PowerShell + Multipass quirks found during the first
real run:
- Rewrote orchestrator sequentially. Start-Job's separate runspace was
hiding the real errors below behind opaque "method on null" failures.
- Removed `function Mp` helper. PowerShell ships a built-in alias `mp`
for Move-ItemProperty that silently shadows same-named functions and
turned multipass calls into Move-ItemProperty calls. Inline `& $MpExe`
everywhere instead.
- Lowered ErrorActionPreference from Stop to Continue. Multipass writes
harmless "cannot set permissions" warnings to stderr when transferring
to NTFS; Stop turned those into fatal aborts.
- Stopped piping `multipass exec` stdout through Tee-Object. The pipe
could stay open indefinitely after the remote command exited, hanging
the orchestrator for 45+ min on a finished install. Now redirects to a
file on the VM and only checks the exit code.
- Tightened tar excludes. Tarball dropped from 305 MB to 20 MB.
- Added `npm ci` in vm-install.sh after the local-code overlay. The
original installer ran `npm ci` from origin/main, then the overlay
dropped in a dev package.json that needed different deps, causing a
spurious frontend build failure.
- Added -ReuseVm flag for re-running just the harness against an
already-installed VM (skips the 20-min launch cost).
First successful end-to-end run on Ubuntu 24.04: 10/10 tests passed.

PowerShell 5.1 reads .ps1 files as ANSI by default; em-dashes and check
marks were mangled into bytes that broke the parser. Replaced with ASCII
equivalents so the script runs under stock Windows PowerShell without
needing pwsh.

One-click PowerShell entry point that spins up Ubuntu/Debian VMs in
parallel, installs ServerKit from the local working tree (not origin/main),
runs a pytest API harness against the live panel, and aggregates results
into a self-contained HTML report.
