CHANGELOG: v0.1.5 verification release
No code changes. Cuts a fresh release purely so a host on v0.1.4
can run `banger update` and confirm v0.1.4's running-VMs-survive
fix actually works when v0.1.4 is the code driving the update —
during the v0.1.3→v0.1.4 update the buggy v0.1.3 reconcile was
still in the driver seat and tore down the running VM as documented.

Survive banger update with running VMs
Two coupled fixes that together make the daemon-restart path of
`banger update` non-destructive for running guests:

1. Unit templates set `KillMode=process` on bangerd.service and
   bangerd-root.service. The default control-group behaviour sent
   SIGKILL to every process in the cgroup on stop/restart — including
   jailer-spawned firecracker children, since fork/exec doesn't
   escape a systemd cgroup. With process mode only the unit's main
   PID is signalled; FC children stay alive in the (unowned)
   cgroup until the new helper instance starts up and re-claims them.

2. `fcproc.FindPID` falls back to the jailer-written pidfile at
   `<chroot>/firecracker.pid` (sibling of the api-sock target) when
   `pgrep -n -f <api-sock>` doesn't find a match. pgrep can't see
   jailer'd FCs because their cmdline only carries the chroot-relative
   `--api-sock /firecracker.socket`, not the host-side path. The
   pidfile is jailer's actual record of the post-exec FC PID, so
   reconcile can verify the surviving process is the right one
   (comm == "firecracker") and re-seed handles.json without tearing
   down the VM's dm-snapshot.

Verified live on the dev host: started a VM, restarted the helper
unit, restarted the daemon unit, and confirmed the FC PID was
unchanged, vm list still showed the guest as running, and
`banger vm ssh` returned the same boot_id pre and post restart.
The systemd journal now reports "firecracker remains running after
unit stopped" and "Found left-over process X (firecracker) in
control group while starting unit. Ignoring." — exactly the shape
`KillMode=process` is supposed to produce.

Tests cover both the parser (parseVersionOutput from the v0.1.2
fix) and the new pidfile lookup: happy path, missing pidfile,
stale pid, wrong comm, garbage content, non-symlink api-sock,
whitespace tolerance.

CHANGELOG corrects v0.1.0's misleading "daemon restarts do not
interrupt running guests" line and documents the unit-refresh
caveat: existing v0.1.0–v0.1.3 installs need a one-time
`sudo banger system install` after updating to v0.1.4 to pick up
the new KillMode directive (`banger update` swaps binaries, not
unit files).

CHANGELOG: v0.1.3 verification release
No code changes. Cuts a fresh release purely so a host on v0.1.2
can run `banger update` and confirm v0.1.2's install.toml-refresh
fix actually works when v0.1.2 is the code driving the update —
during the v0.1.1→v0.1.2 update the buggy v0.1.1 code was still
in the driver seat, so live verification of the fix needs one more
cycle.

update: refresh install.toml commit + built_at from new binary
After `banger update` swaps binaries, install.toml needs to reflect
the just-installed identity. The previous code passed
buildinfo.Current().{Commit,BuiltAt} into installmeta.UpdateBuildInfo
— but buildinfo.Current() in the running CLI is the OLD pre-swap
binary's identity (we're it), not the staged one. install.toml's
version field got refreshed to target.Version while commit and
built_at stayed pinned at the previous release. `banger doctor`
compares the running CLI's three fields against install.toml's
three fields and so raised a false-positive drift warning on
every update.

Fix: after the swap, exec /usr/local/bin/banger version, parse the
three-line output, and write all three fields to install.toml. If
the exec fails for any reason we fall back to the old behaviour
(version + stale commit/built_at) with a warning, since install.toml
drift is a doctor warning not a broken host — same posture as
before for the failure path.

The parser is split out (parseVersionOutput) and table-tested:
happy path, whitespace-tolerance, missing-field rejection, empty
input rejection, ignoring unrelated lines.

Caught by running v0.1.0 → v0.1.1 live as the first end-to-end
smoke test of the self-update flow, which was the whole point of
that exercise.

CHANGELOG: v0.1.1 release notes
Captures the install.sh + BANGER_INSTALL_NONINTERACTIVE changes
that landed in 1004331 and 3c29af5. v0.1.1 is being cut now to
exercise the self-update path against a real released second
version — `banger update` has never run live before, only against
unit-test fixtures, so this release doubles as the smoke test of
the update flow.

Add CHANGELOG.md with v0.1.0 release notes
First-release changelog following the Keep a Changelog + SemVer
convention. The v0.1.0 section groups by capability area (sandbox
VMs, images, kernels, host networking, system install, self-update,
trust model, CLI surface) rather than by package, so it reads as
release notes for users deciding whether to install rather than as
a commit log. Includes a Compatibility section calling out the
informal vsock-protocol stability promise (stable across patches,
not minors) and the forward-only schema policy.
