<message>Introduce a revision tracking system across project files, allowing for easier identification of changes. Update the README files to include instructions for bumping revisions and auto-bumping on commits. Additionally, enhance cloud-init scripts with revision comments for better version control. Modify the dashboard API to improve build status management, including a forced clear option for stuck statuses, enhancing user experience and operational reliability.

# reTerminal DM4 eMMC provisioning
Automatically **deploy** or **backup** the CM4 eMMC when the reTerminal is connected in **USB boot mode** or when it **boots over the network**. Uses **cloud-init** for first-boot configuration.
Revisions are tracked project-wide; see repo root **README.md** and `scripts/bump-revision.sh`.

## Quick start
1. **Read** [docs/EMMC-PROVISIONING-GUIDE.md](docs/EMMC-PROVISIONING-GUIDE.md) for setup and usage.
2. **Proxmox:** Use [scripts/deploy-to-proxmox.sh](scripts/deploy-to-proxmox.sh) to deploy to a Proxmox host; see [docs/PROXMOX-LXC-DEPLOYMENT.md](docs/PROXMOX-LXC-DEPLOYMENT.md).
3. **Manual host:** Copy scripts from `host/` to the host and install the udev rule (see the guide).
4. Put **golden.img** in `/var/lib/cm4-provisioning/` (or your configured path). When a device is detected (USB or network), the **dashboard** asks **Backup** or **Deploy**.
