Resolve conflicts against the upstream wave (PRs #2952-#2965, incl. the
typed-response/schema hardening and the drop of Python 3.10):
- controller/node.py: keep upstream's _transitioning/_confirm_status
lifecycle guard; the kernel-anchor link wiring (node_started) runs
after the transition completes.
- controller/link.py: keep upstream's add_node rollback (release_ports
on create failure) and delete via release_ports; release_ports now
resolves ports live (same staleness reason as _bind_members) and
discards the node link unconditionally.
- schemas/controller/links.py: extend LinkFilterType with the eight
kernel-datapath filter types and LinkFilterParameter.type with "str"
so the newly typed /available_filters response validates; Link.filters
stays a free-form dict — the vocabulary is capability-gated per link
and validated by the controller (409), not by a strict request schema.
- schemas/controller/topology.py: drop the type: ignore made redundant
by the dict filters field.
- tests: route-level filter validation now expects the controller's 409
(unknown types, out-of-range values); packet_loss correlation is a
valid kernel parameter (positive test added); OpenAPI assertions match
the free-form filters property.
Both fixes from the code-review pass were carried by other tests'
side effects: the move_to_ns failure path (the branch that used to skip
the delete_veth) and the required-but-nullable bridge field on the NIO
create routes.
Regression coverage added with the fixes:
- capture-slot semantics: second-port refusal, failed-start rollback, and
a non-owner port's stop not reaching `capture stop_kernel`;
- QEMU stop/start teardown on a mid-body or pre-launch failure, IOU start
cleanup and filter guards, Dynamips half-attach undo plus retry;
- switch VLAN reconcile skipping a deferred anchor and rolling the
ports_mapping back on failure;
- Docker/QEMU occupied-port refusal, probe ctime invalidation, probe
survival of a failing uBridge start;
- env-marker dialects (mid-line mentions, falsy values) and the agent
merge rejecting entries without a device_name.
Test-body imports of product modules move to the shared header.
