test_dispatch_commit.c's test_dc_success_appends_wal_job_dispatch_durably
(already drove the real dispatch_a_job_() production path through a
real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle, previously only
checking recovered state) now also asserts the recovered job.allocs
matches what was dispatched -- host, resource name, value. This is
the primary regression test for the user's exact acceptance
criterion: "after recover the job should get the same as it's state
before shutdown."
Independently reproduced RED->GREEN (not just narrated): reverted the
production fix with the test extension kept, rebuilt, confirmed FAIL
at exactly this assertion; restored, rebuilt, confirmed PASS.
test_wal_job_dispatch_fact.c: added 3 new tests exercising the richer
payload directly on both apply_committed_entry and apply_wal_entry,
plus a full restart-replay variant. All 3 pre-existing tests (bare
wal_jobstate_t payloads, no trailing bytes) pass completely unchanged,
proving backward compatibility with any WAL_JOB_DISPATCH entry written
before this fix.
Full controller_unit_test suite independently re-run: 1136/1136 pass,
zero regressions.

New wal_entry_type WAL_JOB_DISPATCH=12, reusing wal_jobstate_t verbatim
(_pad=0, absolute-value semantics), wired into both apply_wal_entry()'s
and apply_committed_entry()'s existing job-state fall-through groups per
Requirement 2.4. Restart-replay test writes only WAL_JOB_SUBMIT+
WAL_JOB_DISPATCH to a real on-disk WAL and confirms job.state==RUN after
a fresh persist_recover(), independent of WAL_JOB_START.
Review found apply_wal_entry() has zero production call sites today
(persist_recover() and standby catch-up both route through
apply_committed_entry() post the 2026-07-10 ha_apply_single_entry
refactor) -- design.md's stale characterization corrected; the dual
case-label registration itself is unaffected and correct.
