The parity harness normalised any timestamp written during the run to
<now>, and the seeded rows' createdAt and updatedAt were themselves written
during the run, so a restore that dropped a row's createdAt still matched
its golden copy. Every run-time timestamp of the seeded account is now
pinned to a fixed historical value, and the seeded snapshot is asserted to
hold none, so a lost createdAt shows as <now> against a historical value.
The account also carries a tombstone of every model that keeps them, a
flare under its condition and a superseded profile fact, so the second
restore pass resolves real pointers. The fixture is sealed under the
legacy key and a second key is active from the export on; sealed values
render as the key id they name and the text they open to, so a value the
restore re-encrypts instead of carrying over differs.
The golden copies are written from the backup code as it stood before the
export and restore moved into per-domain modules (64fa65b46), and the
current code matches them.
A table read without an order comes back in whatever order its last
updates left on disk, so the column fill could pick a different row of a
two-row table from run to run. The audit rows of a restore are now found
by the copy's id instead of by time, since the database clock and the
test's clock do not agree to the millisecond. The golden copies are
written again from the code before the restore and export moved.
Seed one account as far as the schema allows (a row of every two-ended
model, every column of those rows and of the account row, the instance
settings, a sharing grant), export it both ways and restore each file
into a fresh account, over the live account, and from a version-1 file
in the old shapes. The files, counts, parsed payload, preview, restore
outcome, reported phases, audit rows, wide-event fields and every row the
account holds afterwards are compared with golden copies after ids,
ciphertext and run-time timestamps are normalised. Refusals, skip reports
and the schema's issue list for malformed files are pinned the same way.
The seed moves out of the round-trip test into a shared fixture module
so both files fill the same account.
