docs: refresh devpi reference card and scrub stale references

- docs/reference/services/devpi.md: rewrite for the new launchd
  layout (no more namespace/PVC/ArgoCD/image/ExternalSecret) and
  link to the new how-to.
- docs/reference/infrastructure/tailscale.md: drop tag:devpi from
  the per-service Ingress tag list.
- docs/reference/storage/backups.md: clarify the devpi-cache row
  to call out the new on-indri path.
- docs/how-to/operations/rebuild-minikube-cluster.md: trim the
  "Devpi cold cache after rebuild" section — devpi is no longer in
  minikube — keep a brief note for the still-possible cold-cache
  race after fresh devpi init.
- docs/how-to/operations/devpi-on-indri.md: correct the Backup
  section — server-dir is NOT in borgmatic_source_directories.
- pulumi/tailscale: remove now-dead tag:devpi ACL rule, tagOwner,
  and __main__.py comment. Will need `pulumi up` to apply.

## Backup
The server-dir is included in the borgmatic file backup that already covers `~erichblume/`. Devpi indexes are recoverable from upstream PyPI on a fresh start; only the local index (`root/dev`) is unique state.
The server-dir is **not** in `borgmatic_source_directories` and is not backed up. The PyPI cache (`+files/`) is re-fetchable from upstream on first request; the local `eblume/dev` index can be republished from source. If retention becomes important, add `/Users/erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` to the borgmatic source list.

## Post-Rebuild: Cold Cache Failures
### Devpi (PyPI Cache)
After a rebuild, devpi's package cache is empty. The first Dagger-based container build will trigger a flood of concurrent package downloads. Devpi uses lazy caching — it serves package metadata (simple index) immediately from upstream PyPI but fetches wheel files on demand. Under heavy concurrent load with a cold cache, the upstream fetch can race with the client request, causing devpi to return `no such file` (HTTP 404) for packages it knows about but hasn't finished downloading yet.
**Why devpi, not PyPI?** The repo's `uv.lock` was generated with devpi as the index, so every package source URL points at `pypi.ops.eblu.me`. Dagger's Python SDK runtime does a locked install (`uv sync`), not fresh resolution — it fetches from whatever URLs are in the lockfile. This is intentional (supply chain control), but means all builds — local and CI — depend on devpi being available and warm.
**Symptoms:** Forgejo Actions Dagger builds fail during module initialization with errors like:
```
Failed to download `googleapis-common-protos==1.74.0`
HTTP status client error (404 Not Found) for url (https://pypi.ops.eblu.me/root/pypi/+f/...)
```
**Fix:** Re-run the failed build. The first attempt warms the cache; subsequent builds succeed. Alternatively, warm the cache manually before triggering CI builds:
```bash
# From any machine that can reach pypi.ops.eblu.me, install the Dagger SDK
# to pre-populate the most common packages:
pip install --dry-run --index-url https://pypi.ops.eblu.me/root/pypi/+simple/ dagger-io
```
Devpi runs natively on indri (see [[devpi-on-indri]]) and is unaffected by minikube rebuilds, so the historical "devpi cold cache after rebuild" failure mode no longer applies. If devpi itself goes cold (fresh server-dir), the same lazy-cache race can still cause `404` on the first Dagger build under concurrent load — re-run the build to warm the cache, or pre-warm with `uv pip install --dry-run --index-url https://pypi.ops.eblu.me/root/pypi/+simple/ dagger-io`.

# devpi (PyPI Proxy)
PyPI caching proxy and private package index.
PyPI caching proxy and private package index. Runs natively on [[indri]] as a LaunchAgent (not in-cluster). See [[devpi-on-indri]] for deploy and operations.
## Quick Reference

| **URL** | https://pypi.ops.eblu.me |
| **Namespace** | `devpi` |
| **ArgoCD App** | `devpi` |
| **Storage** | 50Gi PVC |
| **Image** | `registry.ops.eblu.me/blumeops/devpi` (see `argocd/manifests/devpi/kustomization.yaml` for current tag) |
| **URL** | `https://pypi.ops.eblu.me` |
| **Listen** | `127.0.0.1:3141` (loopback only; reached via Caddy) |
| **Service** | LaunchAgent `mcquack.eblume.devpi` on indri |
| **Server-dir** | `/Users/erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` |
| **Runtime** | uv-managed venv at `/Users/erichblume/devpi/venv/` |
| **Ansible role** | `ansible/roles/devpi/` |
| **Versions** | Pinned in `ansible/roles/devpi/defaults/main.yml` (`devpi_server_version`, `devpi_web_version`) |
## Indices
| Index | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| `root/pypi` | PyPI mirror/cache (auto-created) |
| `eblume/dev` | Private packages (inherits from root/pypi) |
| `root/pypi` | PyPI mirror/cache (auto-created by `devpi-init`) |
| `eblume/dev` | Private packages (inherits from `root/pypi`) |
## Credentials
Root password stored in 1Password (blumeops vault), injected via ExternalSecret.
Root password stored in 1Password (`blumeops` vault, item `devpi`, field `root password`). Fetched via `op read` in the `ansible/playbooks/indri.yml` `pre_tasks` and passed to the role on first init.
## Backup
The server-dir is **not** backed up. The PyPI cache (`+files/`) is re-fetchable from upstream on first request. The local `eblume/dev` index metadata is small but also not critical to retain — packages can be republished from source. If retention becomes important, add `/Users/erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` to `borgmatic_source_directories`.
