mixandClaude Opus 5.5 ce363f48dd logtail, health, panel: cite the source of what they rely on (assumptions part A)
Comments only, no behaviour changed. Each place the log tailer, Health and
cmd/panel rely on another program now says where that is written, for the
version the image runs: Postfix 3.7.11 (log_adhoc(), msg_logger_print(),
smtpd_whatsup(), cleanup_milter.c, qmgr_active.c, postlogd.c, showq.c,
pipe.c), logrotate 3.21.0, supervisor 4.2.5, proc(5). Measurements stay
measurements and say where and when; test fixtures say whether they were
seen or composed.

Where the source contradicts the code the comment does not bless it but
names the register entry (A-8 expiry, A-12 the ISO stamp no Postfix writes,
A-15 the last recipient, A-21/A-23 sasl_username, A-33 postlogd's old
inode, A-38 a socket file is not a listener, A-65 the certificate served);
those are fixed in their own commits.

// certWarnDays is how close to expiry the certificate has to be before the

// Postfix itself serves the copy build/postfix-config.sh makes in
// /etc/postfix/tls-internal, refreshed by build/postfix-cert-reload.sh up to
// TLS_RELOAD_INTERVAL_SECONDS later, and each smtpd loads it when it starts
// (Postfix 3.7.11, src/smtpd/smtpd.c, pre_jail_init(), TLS_SERVER_INIT) - so
// the mounted file can be newer than what is served (assumptions A-65).
