MAINT-10: every pack at N=2, the next DST days, plainer upgrade note
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 31m20s
infra-pin / fresh (pull_request) Successful in 1s

test_maint10.py part 10: at two inverters both packs get the site zone, the
real Controller is identical for 11 UTC and 13 Brussels, and two due packs
across 24/25 Oct 2026 and 27/28 Mar 2027 start at the local hour on
successive days; a pack freed in the repeated hour does not start there.
Part 3 adds 28 Mar 2027. DOCS: an existing install keeps its saved hour, now
read as local time; an hour set to make up for UTC goes back to 19.
DECISIONS: the SAFETY-83 gate is met; section on two inverters.

almost every existing install keeps its stored 10, which now means 10:00 local

## 4. What does not change
## 4. Two inverters
`Controller` hands the same zone to every pack's `Maintenance`, so every pack's
`wants_start()` reads the local hour. `arbitrate()` is unchanged: one pack
cycles at a time, and the one that lost the slot starts in the first start
slot after the other is done (a later day: a cycle outlasts its start hour). On the day the clocks go back, a pack freed during the second pass of
a repeated hour does not start there. `test_maint10.py` part 10.
## 5. What does not change
Only the start decision (`Maintenance.wants_start`) and the Home screen's shown
start time read the zone. `test_maint10.py` part 9 runs the real Controller
with start hour 11 UTC against 13 Europe/Brussels (the same instant) and with
12 UTC against 14 local (not the start hour): every command, claim, reason and
log line is identical. A `Maintenance` built without a zone reads UTC, as before.
