didericis 3178453f83 refactor(orchestrator): rename Sidecar -> Gateway for the consolidated data plane
Retire "sidecar" for the consolidated per-host path (PRD 0070 naming
decision): the orchestrator is the umbrella/control plane, and the
egress/git/supervise data-plane unit it runs is the "gateway".

- git mv sidecar.py -> gateway.py and the two integration + one unit test
  files; DockerSidecar->DockerGateway, Sidecar->Gateway,
  SidecarError->GatewayError, SIDECAR_*->GATEWAY_*, ensure_sidecar->
  ensure_gateway, sidecar_status->gateway_status, container name
  bot-bottle-orch-sidecar->bot-bottle-orch-gateway.
- Prose rename across broker/registry/egress/policy_resolver + PRD 0070.
- Preserved: the image name bot-bottle-sidecars, the
  BOT_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_IMAGE env var, Dockerfile.sidecars, and PRD 0069's
  own stage-name cross-references (that doc still uses "sidecar").

No behavior change. Full unit suite green (1679 tests; the 13
test_sidecar_init /bin/sleep errors are pre-existing NixOS-local noise).

Product requirement docs

One PRD per feature: what to build, why, and how it's scoped. The PRD is the durable spec — it should stand on its own without a Gitea issue thread (see ../README.md for when a PRD is the right document vs. a research note or a decision record).

Naming and numbering

New PRDs use a prd-new-<kebab-title>.md placeholder name while the PR is open. On merge to main a CI workflow assigns the next sequential number (0024-…, 0025-…), renames the file, and updates the title header. Numbers are never reused; gaps are fine.

Once numbered, the filename stays fixed for the life of the doc.

Status

The Status: line near the top tracks the PRD's lifecycle:

  • Draft — proposed, not yet shipped.
  • Active — the design has shipped to main and is in effect.
  • Superseded by PRD NNNN — replaced by a later PRD; kept for history.
  • Retargeted by PRD NNNN — folded into a later PRD's scope.

Format

# PRD prd-new: <short title>    ← placeholder; CI fills in the number on merge

- **Status:** Draft
- **Author:** <who>
- **Created:** YYYY-MM-DD
- **Issue:** #<n>            # optional — convenience pointer only

## Summary
One paragraph: what this builds and the pain it solves.

## Problem
The current state and why it's inadequate.

## Goals / Success Criteria
Bullets a reviewer can check the finished work against.

## Non-goals
What this explicitly does not do — and won't, to head off scope creep.

## Scope
In scope / out of scope, when the boundary needs spelling out.

## Design
How it works: schema, data flow, diagrams, algorithms as needed.

## Implementation chunks
Ordered, mergeable steps (optional; for multi-PR features).

## Open questions
Unresolved decisions — resolve or fold into Design before shipping.

Sections are a guide, not a straitjacket: drop the ones a given PRD doesn't need (a small change rarely needs Scope or Implementation chunks) and add others where they help (e.g. Testing strategy, Alternatives considered, References). Keep the rationale self-contained — inline the reasoning rather than linking out to an issue thread, so the PRD survives a move off Gitea.
