Rule packs (support dates and newest CU per release) are published in a
signed feed and hot-loaded without a restart; the verified pack is
reloaded at startup. New versions are announced (Notify) or downloaded
and staged by the unprivileged agent (Automatic), and installed by a
privileged apply-update task that re-verifies signature and hash in an
admin-only folder, keeps appsettings/web.config, health-checks the
services and rolls back on failure. Stable and preview channels,
manifest expiry and rollback protection, https or folder/share feeds
for offline sites. Vendor tool gains rulepack and publish; the Hub can
serve the feed; the web UI gets a System page with update, rule pack,
license and exactly what is sent to the Hub.
