* feat(relay): pace the drain send during a same-cap cell roll A same-cap roll drains a cell with graceMs 0, which sends `drain` to all ~800 controls in one pass. Every desktop re-dials on receipt regardless of graceMs, so the whole cell reconnects inside a second. On 2026-09-16 that stampede hit a Cloud SQL stall: attaches timed out, each leaving 10 minutes of late-arrival debt on connection headroom, and placement answered relay_capacity_exhausted fleet-wide for ~13 minutes. Spreading the sends spreads the re-dials. `HostSessionRegistry.drain` takes an optional pacing window and schedules each session's send evenly across it; admission is fenced for every session up front, and each host keeps its own full grace after its own send. /v1/admin/drain accepts `paceWindowMs` (<= 5 min) and echoes what it applied. The same-cap job asks for 120 s, and the drain-completion wait grew by the same amount. A cell still on an older image rejects the field, so the deploy script falls back to an unpaced drain rather than failing the roll. * fix(relay): scope the drain fence to the hosts already told Review of the paced drain found two problems, both from treating "this cell is draining" as one instant when pacing makes it a window. Timers: the sends queued by a paced drain were neither cleared when a later drain superseded them nor unref'd. A SIGTERM mid-window left up to 800 no-op timers holding the event loop open until systemd escalated to SIGKILL. Drain timers are now tracked, cleared on the next drain, and unref'd, so a retry re-arms a session's teardown instead of stacking a second one. Phones: the client fence read the global draining flag, so every phone was refused for the whole window even though its own host had not been told yet and was still serving. The director keeps pointing phones at this cell until their host moves, so they would have looped for up to two minutes. A session is now fenced when its drain is sent, not when the drain starts, and the client paths key off that. New control connections and re-attaches stay fenced globally: nothing new should land on a cell that is going away.
