The pg_dump sidecar wrote its dumps to the same disk it protects — one
disk failure lost both. Setting ROBOCO_BACKUP_MIRROR_DIR in .env to a
path on a different disk (external/remote mount) arms a mirror step after
every successful dump: tmp+rename copy, mirror pruned to the same
BACKUP_KEEP, unwritable mirror logs-and-skips without blocking the
primary. Unset, the script never attempts a copy — no fake off-disk
copies on the same disk. Docs gain the mirror setup and a quarterly
restore drill (throwaway pgvector container, pg_restore, row-count
sanity check).

* fix(infra): release builds all 17 registry images; pg_dump backup sidecar
release.yml was missing roboco-agent-grok-prompter and
roboco-agent-grok-secretary (both FROM the bare local roboco-agent-grok
tag, so agent-grok now builds explicitly ahead of the loop, mirroring
the agent-base special case) — a fresh registry pull could never
succeed. Both compose files gain a backup sidecar on the data network:
pg_dump -Fc on start and every 24h, crash-safe tmp+rename, newest-14
rotation, restore walkthrough in docs/backend/ops/database-backups.md.
* chore(docs): reflow hard-wrapped prose inherited from the six-PR merge train
* chore(foundation): regenerate lifecycle artifacts; reflow inherited prose
