a plugin creates its own tables, and uninstalling never drops them

the last unwired step. install now generates a drizzle barrel of plugin schemas
and runs db:push, so a plugin with db/schema.ts brings its tables with it.

the barrel follows the plugin DIRECTORIES on disk, not the install table, and
that difference is the entire safety property. push drops what it cannot see, so
a barrel tracking installs would delete a plugin's tables the moment it was
uninstalled — turning "stop running this" into "delete my data", which is the
one thing the install model refuses to do. following the directory means:

  directory present, not installed   in the barrel, tables exist unused
  installed                          in the barrel, tables in use
  uninstalled                        STILL in the barrel, every row survives
  directory deleted                  out of the barrel, a push may drop them

so reinstall is a restore, and losing data requires deliberately deleting a
plugin's source.

proved end to end rather than argued. with offscale uninstalled and its entry
removed from the barrel, db:push DROPPED headscale_servers. installing it
recreated the table in 1882ms — columns, both unique indexes including the
partial one that enforces a single active server, and the fk. a canary row then
survived an uninstall AND a subsequent manual db:push, which reported "No
changes detected".

it shells out to the same `bun db:push` a human runs rather than driving
drizzle-kit in-process: one definition of applying the schema instead of two
that can disagree, and an owner can reproduce exactly what an install did.
--force because the barrel only ever gains entries unless source is deleted, and
a prompt with no terminal would hang an install rather than fail it.
