The in-cluster edge (#178) is off unless the chart is given a domain, so pass
one through from a repository variable. Unset, the deploy is exactly what it was
— NodePorts, and the portals reachable only over the SSH forwards.

The first run against the lab server's VM timed out on `kubectl rollout status`
for the in-cluster registry with nothing but "timed out waiting for the
condition". The cause was three commands up the runbook: that VM was installed
from a stock Talos config, so the only node still carries the control-plane
taint and no pod can schedule — and the missing registry mirror would have
failed the image pulls right after.
`rollout status` can only ever report the symptom, so dump the whole cluster's
pods and the recent events on failure instead of `big`'s pods alone; the
scheduler's "untolerated taint" message is the answer and it lives in the
events. Runbook §9 now opens with the machine-config patch the deploy assumes,
as one applied-live patch rather than a `kubectl taint` that the controller
undoes.

The chart has been deployable by hand since #25 and linted in CI since #168;
this makes a merged PR actually ship it to the lab server's Talos VM.
Neither the Kubernetes API nor the in-cluster registry is publicly reachable,
so the job forwards 6443, 30500 and 30141 over the same SSH hop into the Fedora
host that the Gitea-runner pipeline uses. That splits the registry into two
names for one store: images are pushed through the tunnel to localhost:30500,
and the node pulls them from its own NodePort — the address its registry-mirror
patch trusts over plain HTTP.
It deploys with `make k8s-reseed` rather than `make k8s-up`: the bootstrap Jobs
are idempotent, and deleting them first is what stops a changed Job template
from wedging `helm upgrade`. The nine deployments are then rolled explicitly,
because `dev` is a mutable tag and helm sees an unchanged pod template.
PR CI is the merge gate, so this workflow does not re-run the checks. Deploys
queue instead of cancelling: a `helm upgrade` killed half-way leaves the release
in `pending-upgrade` and needs unwedging by hand.
