✍️ Description

The telemetry service decides what a user abort is by searching the log text for sigint, ctrl+c, sighup and a few phrases. Our hangup message said SIGHUP, so every run that lost its console was filed as "the operator pressed Ctrl-C": of 300 aborted records in the thirteen hours after the fix shipped, 81 were this message. Twenty of those were real failures -- apt errors, containers that would not start -- which left the failure rate understated and the bugs invisible. The message now says the terminal closed, and a test keeps every hangup message clear of the words the classifier reads.

The shield that kept apt and npm alive only covered commands run through silent(). pct create and the four pveam download calls run bare on the host, so a console closed during the template download still killed the run with 129. They go through the same helper now, which is named for what it does rather than for silent().

Try this branch

The engine and the scripts resolve independently, so a production script can
be run against the engine from this PR by setting one variable:

COMMUNITY_SCRIPTS_CORE_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/hangup-followups \
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/debian.sh)"

Swap ct/debian.sh for whatever exercises the change.

This PR touches both backends. Worth running on a Proxmox VE and an Incus host.

Run a script from a fork as well

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/hangup-followups/tools/run.sh |
  bash -s -- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/YOU/DevScripts/your-branch ct/debian.sh \
             https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/hangup-followups

Note that run.sh is reached through a pipe, so the script it starts inherits
an exhausted stdin. Whiptail is fine — it opens /dev/tty — but a plain read
would see EOF. The single-variable form above does not have that problem.

Useful flags while testing

dev_mode=net logs every engine fetch with status and duration, which is the
quickest way to confirm the branch is really being used. dev_mode=keep stops a
failed build from deleting the container along with the evidence.
