fix(restart): require both authorizations for apply, correct coordinator doc

Addresses the two blockers raised in the PR #886 review (comment 16559) for
issue #663.

B1 — apply_authorized ignored restart-class authorization.

The #663 restart-class matrix and the #661 drain-proof hard gate are
independent authorizations that first coexisted when PR #882 landed on
master and this branch merged it. The union preserved both, but the apply
decision consulted only the drain gate:

    payload["apply_authorized"] = gate.allow

so a clean drain proof — or an authorized break-glass, which needs no proof
at all — reported apply_authorized: True for a class the least-privilege
matrix had just denied, in the same payload carrying allow_restart: False
and "role 'author' may not request full_mcp_restart". One environment
variable therefore collapsed the whole nine-class matrix for the apply
decision, including host_restart.

The apply decision is now the conjunction of both authorizations, and
apply_gate carries drain_gate_allow and restart_class_authorized so a denial
is attributable to the authorization that produced it. Break-glass keeps its
purpose — bypassing the drain proof — and never bypasses the class matrix.
No existing fail-closed behaviour is weakened: allow_restart, drain-proof
verification, fingerprint binding, and requester authorization are untouched.

B2 — docs/mcp-restart-coordinator.md described pre-#661 behaviour.

The document still called the drain proof "a separate child" and omitted
drain_proof_json and request_break_glass from the published signature, so a
safety document asserted there was no gate where a gate now exists. It now
documents both parameters, states that the gate executes inside this tool,
and records dry-run versus apply behaviour, authorization ordering, the
break-glass scope, and fail-closed conditions as implemented.

Regression coverage.

tests/test_issue_886_apply_authorization_conjunction.py exercises the MCP
tool itself, which previously had no test at all — that absence is why the
defect shipped. It pins both conjunction directions, proves a clean proof
cannot override a role, approval, unknown-class, or missing-target denial,
proves break-glass does not collapse the matrix for any worker role or
restricted class, and proves the existing scoped and unscoped paths and the
#661 denials still hold. Against the pre-fix tree 24 of these fail; against
this commit all 19 pass with 45 subtests.

tests/test_mcp_restart_governance_docs.py now binds the published signature
to inspect.signature() of the real tool and forbids the stale pre-#661
phrasing, so the drift that produced B2 cannot return unnoticed.

Verification: targeted restart/drain/governance/webui suites 194 passed,
113 subtests. Full suite 23 failed, 5230 passed, 6 skipped, 912 subtests —
the failure set is identical to the reviewed baseline at 9bc021e
(23 failed, 5201 passed), with +29 passing from the added tests and no new
or changed failure. Zero conflict markers; py_compile passes; the #882
union remains intact in both directions.

+# MCP restart classes and blast-radius permissions (#663)
+
+This is the machine-enforced class matrix used by
+`restart_coordinator.RESTART_CLASS_POLICIES`. It implements the narrower-first
+recovery ladder from #655 and the authorization policy from #656, using the
+path inventory from #657 and the impact coordinator from #658. Product and
+delivery lineage: vision #652 and roadmap #653.
+
+Unknown class names are denied. The coordinator requires both the class
+permission and an eligible request role. Approval gates are additional: a
+caller cannot turn a request permission into execution authority.
+
+| Restart class | Required permission | Expected blast radius | Drain requirement | Approval requirement | Audit requirement | Recovery behavior |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `client_reconnect` | `mcp.reconnect.client` | none | none | self service | class, actor, client namespace, reason, outcome | Reconnect only the caller's client transport. No daemon or peer work changes. |
+| `session_reconnect` | `mcp.reconnect.session` | low | requesting-session safe point | self service | class, actor, session, reason, outcome | Rebind identity, capability, and workspace state for one session. |
+| `worker_restart` | `mcp.restart.worker.request` | low | target worker | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, worker, approval, scoped drain, outcome | Restart one worker after its own leases and mutations drain. |
+| `role_runtime_restart` | `mcp.restart.role_runtime.request` | medium | target role runtime | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, role namespace, approval, scoped drain, outcome | Restart and re-probe one role runtime; unrelated roles remain available. |
+| `connector_restart` | `mcp.restart.connector.request` | medium | target connector | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, connector, approval, scoped drain, outcome | Restart one connector while unrelated runtimes remain available. |
+| `configuration_reload` | `mcp.reload.configuration.request` | low | mutation quiesce | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, configuration revision, approval, outcome | Gracefully reload configuration without replacing the daemon. |
+| `rolling_mcp_restart` | `mcp.restart.rolling.request` | medium | one instance at a time | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, instance order, approval, per-instance drains, outcome | Drain, restart, verify, and restore each instance before advancing. |
+| `full_mcp_restart` | `mcp.restart.full.request` | high | all sessions and mutations | controller approval + automated gates | class, actor, full impact, approval, full drain proof, outcome | Replace the complete MCP runtime only after a verified full drain. |
+| `host_restart` | `mcp.restart.host.request` | high | all host work | controller approval + infrastructure operator | class, actor, host/change or incident id, approval, full drain proof, outcome | Hand off to infrastructure ownership and reconcile every runtime afterward. |
+
+## Drain boundary
+
+Only `full_mcp_restart` and `host_restart` set `full_drain_required=true`.
+Reconnects and configuration reloads do not disrupt peer sessions. Worker,
+role-runtime, and connector restarts evaluate only their explicitly named
+target. Rolling restart drains one instance at a time. Missing required target
+scope denies the request rather than silently widening it to a full restart.
+
+## Permission and approval boundary
+
+Author, reviewer, merger, and reconciler roles may self-request reconnects and
+request scoped worker/role/connector/reload recovery. They cannot request
+rolling, full, or host restart classes. Controller/operator/admin roles may
+request the broader classes, while execution remains operator/admin-owned.
+Controller approval is independently required for every class above a session
+reconnect. Host restart additionally requires infrastructure-operator proof.
+
+The MCP request tool derives class permissions from its authenticated runtime
+role. It does not accept caller-supplied permissions. Controller and operator
+authorization are read from the already-running daemon environment, never
+from a request argument.
+
+## Audit and failure behavior
+
+Every impact audit and every console restart/reload audit includes a
+`restart_class` field. The impact audit also includes the exact
+`required_permission`. Unknown classes, missing permissions, ineligible roles,
+missing approval, missing scoped targets, and incomplete inventory all deny
+fail closed. Manual process kills remain forbidden and contaminating (#630).

+### Dry-run versus apply
+
+| Call | Behavior |
+|------|----------|
+| `dry_run=True` (default) | Read-only impact preview. No drain proof is required or consulted. |
+| `dry_run=False` | The #661 drain-proof hard gate runs **in this tool**. The outcome is reported under `apply_gate` / `apply_authorized`; a denial also returns a durable `incident` descriptor. Still no restart. |
+
+### Authorization ordering
+
+An apply requires **both** authorizations, and they are independent:
+
+1. **Restart-class authorization** (#663) — the requester's role and permissions
+   must allow the requested class, the class's approval requirement must be
+   satisfied, and any target-scoped class must name its target. Failing any of
+   these makes `allow_restart` `false`.
+2. **Drain-proof gate** (#661) — a valid, unexpired, clean proof bound to the
+   current impact fingerprint, or an authorized break-glass.
+
+`apply_authorized` is the conjunction: `gate.allow and allow_restart`. A clean
+drain proof therefore cannot override a class or requester-role denial, and a
+denied class never reports an authorized apply. `apply_gate` carries
+`drain_gate_allow` and `restart_class_authorized` so a denial is attributable to
+the authorization that produced it.
+
+### Break-glass
+
+Break-glass bypasses the **drain proof only** — never the restart-class matrix.
+It is honoured solely when `request_break_glass` is set *and* the environment
+carries `GITEA_BREAKGLASS_RESTART_AUTHORIZATION`; like operator override, the
+tool argument expresses caller intent and cannot be self-asserted by a worker
+session. `break_glass_requested` and `break_glass_authorized` are both reported,
+so a bypass is never silent.
+
+### Fail closed on apply
+
+A missing, malformed, expired, unclean, tampered, or fingerprint-stale drain
+proof denies the apply and returns an `incident` descriptor. An unknown restart
+class denies before any of this. Ambiguity always denies.
 
 ## Audit
 
 Every evaluation carries an `audit_record` (event, coordinator version, verdict,
-allow decision, blast radius, counts, timestamp) so restart decisions are
+restart class, required permission, allow decision, blast radius, counts,
+timestamp) so restart decisions are
 auditable. No secrets flow through the coordinator — session ids, pids, and
 profiles are operational metadata only.

+"""``apply_authorized`` requires BOTH authorizations (#886 review blocker B1).
+
+The #663 restart-class matrix and the #661 drain-proof hard gate are independent
+authorizations that first coexisted when PR #882 landed on master and PR #886
+merged it into the restart-class branch. The union preserved both, but the apply
+decision consulted only the drain gate::
+
+    payload["apply_authorized"] = gate.allow          # pre-fix
+
+so a clean drain proof — or an authorized break-glass, which needs no proof at
+all — reported ``apply_authorized: True`` for a restart class the least-privilege
+matrix had just denied, in the same payload that carried
+``allow_restart: False`` and "role 'author' may not request full_mcp_restart".
+
+These tests pin the conjunction and the properties that must survive it. They
+exercise the real MCP tool, which previously had no test coverage at all — that
+absence is why the defect shipped.
