Merge pull request 'release: promote development → master (v1.23.0)' (#276) from development into master

The bundled WebView build is only compatible from Android 10 (API 29); on Android 9 it lands on
the in-app unsupported-engine screen. Declaring minSdk 29 lets RuStore/Google Play block older
devices at install rather than shipping a known-incompatible build.

+## E10 — Multi-shop direct rail + ИП fiscalization
+
+**Status:** DONE (merged — the multi-shop PR) · **Release 2+ (post-launch, backend-first)** · depends on: E5 (intake/`Fund`,
+the `robokassa` adapter, the Result callback), E7 (the per-user report — channel breakdown) ·
+mechanics: PAYMENTS §9, §12; decisions D41 (rev), D42–D44.
+
+**Goal.** Split the single Robokassa `direct` rail into **per-channel merchant shops** (web,
+android; ios later) — separate merchant accounts / withdrawal / accounting and a per-channel
+breakdown in the E7 report — while keeping **one `direct` wallet** (D42). Land the wallet/identity
+rules the native apps need (email-only anchor, D43) and revise fiscalization for the owner's move
+to **ИП / 54-ФЗ** (D41 rev). All **additive / contour-safe** and **money-live** → expand-contract
+throughout.
+
+**Locked decisions (owner interview 2026-07-14): D41 (rev), D42, D43, D44.** No wallet-model /
+spend-wall change; the split is merchant-account routing under one `direct` segment. Route the shop
+by the **trusted** `X-Platform` subtype, never a client field; unknown → `web`.
+
+**B1 — Config: one shop → a set of shops.**
+
+- `robokassa.Config` (single) → a **shops registry** keyed by channel (`web`, `android`; `ios`
+  later), each 4 fields (`MerchantLogin`/`Password1`/`Password2`/`IsTest`). New env
+  `BACKEND_ROBOKASSA_WEB_*`, `BACKEND_ROBOKASSA_ANDROID_*`.
+- **Expand-contract, no flag-day:** the legacy `BACKEND_ROBOKASSA_*` seeds the `web` shop; add the
+  new vars; retire the legacy set after the prod rollout sets the split vars. `validate()`: a shop
+  with a login must carry both passwords (mirror the current check), per shop.
+- Config/README + `deploy/.env.example` + the deploy ansible vars.
+
+**B2 — Route the shop by channel (intake).**
+
+- `handleWalletOrder` `SourceDirect` branch: pick the shop by `cxt.Subtype` (`web`/`android`;
+  unknown → `web`). Build the payment request from that shop. The subtype rides the trusted
+  gateway-injected `X-Platform` (`<kind>/<subtype>`, `parsePlatformHeader`) — no spoofable client
+  field. **Verify the gateway emits `direct/android` for the native build**; if it sends a bare
+  `direct/`, add the android subtype (small gateway change).
+- Record the chosen `shop` on the order (feeds B5).
+
+**B3 — Per-shop Result callbacks.**
+
+- The callback must select the right `Password2` → each shop gets its own Result URL:
+  **per-shop public edge routes** (mirror the existing single Robokassa Result route, e.g.
+  `…/result/web`, `…/result/android`), each forwarded to the backend and verified with that shop's
+  config, then the same `Fund` (source stays `direct`). Add the routes to the **Caddyfile
+  `@gateway` matcher** (else they fall to the landing catch-all) **+ a CI probe per route**.
+- Keep the legacy single route alive (shop = `web`) through the expand-contract window until the
+  cabinet Result URLs are cut over.
+
+**B4 — ИП fiscalization (D41 rev) — RESOLVED (owner 2026-07-14): cabinet-side only.** The owner keeps
+Robokassa's cabinet auto-fiscalization (a generic чек is acceptable for the ИП); the optional
+itemized-`Receipt` / `Email` code below is **dropped** — not needed. (Kept for context.)
+
+- **Owner/cabinet:** enable the 54-ФЗ cloud kassa in the Robokassa ЛКК (kassa + ОФД + СНО).
+  Required for ИП regardless of code.
+- **Code (optional, itemized чеки):** send a one-line `Receipt` (pack name, qty 1, `sum`, `tax`
+  per СНО, `payment_object`/`payment_method`) + the customer `Email` (the D36 confirmed anchor) in
+  the payment request; extend the signature to `MerchantLogin:OutSum:InvId:Receipt:Password1`
+  (URL-encode `Receipt`). One line fits the current GET redirect; POST-form only as a URL-length
+  fallback. One feature, all shops. **Sequenced last** — the split (B1–B3, B5, B6) needs no
+  fiscalization. Supersedes the E5 §12 shop-side НПД receipt note.
+
+**B5 — Channel in the report (D44).**
+
+- Additive `shop` column on the order (default `web` / backfill from `origin`); a per-channel
+  breakdown in the E7 per-user report (D40). Expand-contract migration (nullable/defaulted column),
+  **contour-safe** (a schema touch → note the contour `DROP SCHEMA` step in `PRERELEASE.md`).
+
+**B6 — Tests + docs.**
+
+- unit: the `robokassa` shops registry + per-shop `VerifyResult` (right `Password2`);
+  signature-with-`Receipt` (B4); intake shop routing by subtype (web/android/unknown→web).
+- integration: order→per-shop callback→credit (each route), a duplicate credits once, an expired
+  order still honoured; the `shop` recorded + reported.
+- docs: `PAYMENTS.md` (+`_ru`) the multi-shop topology + the ИП/54-ФЗ receipt revision;
+  `deploy/README` + `.env.example` the new vars + the per-shop Result routes + probes;
+  `PRERELEASE.md` the `shop` column contour step.
+
+**Done-criteria.** A `direct/web` order pays through the web shop and `direct/android` through the
+android shop, each verified with its own `Password2`, both crediting one `direct` wallet exactly
+once; the E7 report breaks payments down by channel; the split stays contour-safe (the legacy shop
+still works until the cabinet cutover). B4 (fiscalization) verified when the owner's ИП/ОФД/СНО are
+live.
+
+**Notes/risks.** Edge routes fall through if not in the Caddyfile `@gateway` matcher — add a CI
+probe (field note). The prod rolling deploy skips caddy on config-only changes — force-recreate on a
+Caddyfile change. Money-live: expand-contract only, image rollback DB-safe. Confirm the gateway
+emits `direct/android` for the native build before relying on subtype routing.

+## E11 — Payment availability kill switch + per-account override
+
+**Status:** DONE · **Release 2** · depends on: E5 (intake/order), E7 (admin console) · mechanics:
+PAYMENTS §9; decisions D45, D46.
+
+**Delivered.** An operator disables purchases live from `/_gm` — a whole rail/channel or one account
+— and the user sees a localized reason on the next purchase attempt. Motivation (owner): real apps
+show broken payments with no explanation; this gives ops a live switch + a clear user message.
+
+- **Rail kill switch** — `payments.rail_status` (per rail `direct:web` / `direct:android` / `vk` /
+  `telegram`): `enabled` + a per-language message, edited on the catalog page. **Fail-open** (no row
+  ⇒ enabled, so payments are never accidentally killed). The intake gate — `CanPurchase` in
+  `handleWalletOrder`, before the order — returns `payment_unavailable` + the localized message;
+  orthogonal to the security gates.
+- **Per-account override** — `payments.account_payment_override` (a row only for non-default; default
+  = no row, cleared by delete): allow / deny / default, edited on the user card. `allow` bypasses
+  **only** the ops rail switch, never the security gates (D46).
+- **Wire** — the message rides an additive `ExecuteResponse.message` (envelope layer,
+  frozen-contract-safe; the gateway forwards a backend domain-error message via `DomainMessage`); the
+  client reads it into `GatewayError.message` and shows it on a `payment_unavailable` buy attempt.
+- **Tests** — the pure gate `PurchaseGate` (unit, TDD); the store + gate + override end-to-end
+  (integration, migration `00016`); the client (svelte-check / vitest). **Docs** — PAYMENTS (+`_ru`),
+  decisions D45 / D46.
+
+**Contour-safe:** additive migration (two new tables, no wipe); the wire add is additive; fail-open,
+so nothing is disabled until an operator acts.
