paths.base: manifest is not honored for workflows: — bundled workflows only resolve from repo root, blocking self-contained subdir layouts (sibling to #459)

swamp-club#449 added LaunchDaemon support for macOS when the swamp binary is root-owned. The same underlying problem exists on Linux — a user-level systemd timer or user crontab cannot overwrite a root-owned binary at paths like /usr/local/bin/swamp.

Currently on Linux:

systemd path: uses systemctl --user timers which run as the logged-in user
cron path: uses the user's crontab which runs as the logged-in user

Neither can write to a root-owned binary, so autoupdate silently fails.

Proposed Solution

Extend the ownership detection and privileged scheduler pattern from the macOS LaunchDaemon work (PR #1451) to Linux:

systemd path: Install a system-level timer at /etc/systemd/system/ instead of a user timer at ~/.config/systemd/user/, requiring sudo systemctl instead of systemctl --user
cron path: Use root crontab (sudo crontab) instead of user crontab (crontab -e)

The ownership detection infrastructure (detectBinaryOwnership, createScheduler with mode parameter, scheduler type reporting in doctor install) is already in place from the macOS work. The Linux side needs two new scheduler variants and the corresponding install/remove/status implementations.

Alternatives

Only support the systemd path for privileged updates (skip cron). This would simplify the implementation but leave users without systemd unsupported.
