Tests / tests (push) Successful in 3m5s
feat(installer): Offer repair chroot on post-pacstrap failure
- offer_chroot(): optional arch-chroot shell into the still-mounted target,
  from install_cleanup() on success and from the EXIT trap when a step fails
  after pacstrap (TARGET_INSTALLED flag); temp NOPASSWD sudoers drop-ins are
  always removed before the shell is opened.
- INT/TERM handler re-exits with 128+N: without it bash runs the EXIT trap
  with $? = 0 for a signal-killed shell and the rc != 0 test would skip the
  offer. A signal during teardown only aborts the prompt (first) so the
  unmount still runs; a second forces the exit.
- cleanup(): report a failed umount -R / cryptsetup close instead of hiding
  stderr, so a repair shell leaving busy mounts is visible before reboot.
- Document the flow in AGENTS.md.
