Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 908c5a6a69 fix(upgrade): /gstack-upgrade stops a stale daemon — deferring to a busy one (#2551)
A browse daemon started before an upgrade keeps serving the OLD binary's
code after `git reset --hard` + `./setup` — the running process holds the
old executable, so users on the "new" version kept getting pre-upgrade
behavior (and config-mismatch refusals against the new CLI) until they
happened to stop it by hand.

New unconditional Step 4.8 in gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md.tmpl (+ regen, same
commit): compare the running daemon's recorded binaryVersion (the
readVersionHash git-SHA the server stamps into its state file) against the
freshly built browse/dist/.version.

- Stale + responsive → `browse stop` (graceful), telling the user
  old→new hash; the next command boots a daemon on the new binary.
- Stale + BUSY → DEFER (decision 10): never kill a busy daemon during
  upgrade. Print the old→new hash and the escape hatch —
  `browse stop` when it finishes, or `browse --force-restart stop` now.
- Dead pid / matching hash / no state → silent no-op.

Tests: skill-validation + gen-skill-docs 731 pass after regen.

Fixes #2551.
