v2026.04.28.1

Improved Resource Aware Orchestration, Smarter Auto-Scaling, and Concurrency Improvements

When the platform is choosing server placement, it now reads server health and available resources before picking a home for new instances. Auto-scaling no longer counts failed provisions and picks retry models by priority. Factory images stay cached for 10 minutes after a build instead of two giving more time to stream directly from factory to server. Several fixes also landed including: Ceph volume locks, IPv6 gateway routing, and a Windows ISO that needed a nudge to update.
