Trim verbose comments in postgres provisioning changes

init-db.sh only runs on a fresh PGDATA (docker-entrypoint-initdb.d), so a
cluster left partially initialized -- e.g. the container restarted mid first-init
by a watch trigger -- never recovered: the so_postgres role existed but its
schema grants and the so_telegraf database were missing, breaking SOC with
"permission denied for schema public".

- init-db.sh: make the role upsert race-safe. Try CREATE ROLE and fall back to
  ALTER on duplicate_object/unique_violation instead of IF NOT EXISTS, so a
  concurrent creator no longer aborts the script (set -e + ON_ERROR_STOP=1)
  before the grants and so_telegraf creation run. The whole script is now
  idempotent and safe to re-run.
- postgres/enabled.sls: move postgres_wait_ready here (was telegraf-gated in
  telegraf_users.sls) and add postgres_bootstrap_soc_db, which re-runs init-db.sh
  every highstate so a partially-initialized cluster self-heals.
- telegraf_users.sls: drop its now-duplicate postgres_wait_ready definition; it
  resolves from postgres.enabled via the existing include.
- soup: remove bootstrap_so_soc_database and its post_to_3.2.0 call. The
  highstates soup runs before postupgrade now reconcile the SOC DB, making the
  one-shot bootstrap redundant.

+# Custom salt beacon that watches the suricata/strelka rule directories for changes
+# and emits a beacon event per changed directory. This replaces the stock salt
+# `inotify` beacon, which leaks a kernel inotify instance every time the minion
+# rebuilds the beacon loader's __context__ (orphaning the old pyinotify.Notifier
+# without closing it) until fs.inotify.max_user_instances is exhausted and the
+# beacon dies with EMFILE. Polling holds zero inotify instances, so the leak is
+# impossible, and it keeps firing during state runs (no blackout).
+#
+# Detection is poll-based with a per-directory fingerprint persisted to
+# WATERMARK_DIR: each pass walks the directory and hashes every file's
+# (relpath, st_mtime_ns, st_size), which catches content writes, additions,
+# moves, and deletions. A change in the digest emits one event; an unchanged
+# digest emits nothing. This makes it self-healing (a missed poll simply catches
+# up on the next one).
+#
+# Each emitted event carries the watched directory path under the configured tag
+# (e.g. salt/beacon/<minion>/rules_beacon/suricata); the push_suricata / push_strelka
+# reactors write a push intent, after which the existing so-push-drainer /

+# so-kernel-upgrade — install the UEK8 (6.x) kernel and make it the boot default.
+#
+# Security Onion is moving off the EL9 stock kernel (RHCK, 5.14) and UEK7 (5.15) onto UEK8
+# (6.x). Three things have to happen, and the tool has to drive each one:
+#
+#   1. Populate. The manager mirrors the UEK8 packages into /nsm/kernelrepo via so-repo-sync,
+#      and serves them to the grid over https://<manager>/kernelrepo. Until that sync runs the
+#      repo is valid but EMPTY -- dnf resolves it happily and installs nothing, with no error.
+#   2. Install. A node on RHCK has no kernel-uek* package at all, so there is nothing for
+#      'dnf update' to upgrade. A node on UEK7 does have kernel-uek installed, so
+#      'dnf install kernel-uek' reports "Nothing to do" and exits 0 without installing 6.x.
+#      Both cases need an explicit install of the UEK8 NEVRA.
+#   3. Boot it. Whether a newly installed UEK8 kernel becomes the boot default depends on the
+#      RUNNING kernel's flavor. kernel-install/grubby (with UPDATEDEFAULT=yes) only auto-promote
+#      within the running kernel's flavor lineage:
+#        - From UEK7 (5.x, kernel-uek) the install stays in the kernel-uek lineage and IS
+#          auto-promoted, so no grubby change is needed -- just make sure the repo is populated
+#          and install UEK8.
+#        - From the stock EL9 kernel (RHCK, 5.14, no UEK) it is a flavor CROSS that is NOT
+#          auto-promoted, so the box keeps booting RHCK until grubby is told otherwise.
+#      This tool inspects the running kernel and only runs 'grubby --set-default' for RHCK.
+#
+# Every one of those failure modes is silent by default. This tool handles each case and fails
+# loudly when it cannot, rather than reporting success while changing nothing.
+#
+# Manager vs minion: only the manager owns /nsm/kernelrepo, so only the manager can populate
+# it. If the repo is empty here, a manager runs so-repo-sync itself; a minion has no way to
+# fix it and exits non-zero telling the admin to sync the manager first.
+#
+# Idempotent: an already-installed, already-default UEK8 kernel is left alone. It only sets
+# the boot default; it does NOT reboot -- the admin reboots the node on their own schedule.

+so-push-drainer
+===============
+
+Scheduled drainer for the active-push feature. Runs on the manager every
+drain_interval seconds (default 15) via a salt schedule in salt/salt/push_drain_schedule.sls.
+
+For each intent file under /opt/so/state/push_pending/*.json whose last_touch
+is older than debounce_seconds, this script:
+  * concatenates the actions lists from every ready intent
+  * dedupes by (state or __highstate__, tgt, tgt_type)
+  * dispatches a single `salt-run state.orchestrate orch.push_batch --async`
+    with the deduped actions list passed as pillar kwargs
+  * deletes the contributed intent files on successful dispatch
+
+Reactor sls files (push_suricata, push_strelka, push_pillar) write intents
+but never dispatch directly
