The slowdisk --transform args contain '|' and quotes; the ssh+screen+bash -c
stack strips one quoting level too many and splits the pipeline (broke the
katana retry within minutes of fccf2792). A heredoc-generated
/tmp/transfer_<key>.sh is parsed exactly once on the target. Applies to both
the screen and nohup listener branches; the direct-ssh fallback already had a
single shell layer and stays inline.

tar cannot create files through a directory symlink whose target is on
another device: open() fails with 'Invalid cross-device link' even under
--keep-directory-symlink (reproduced, GNU tar 1.34 and 1.35). This killed
the katana->uk-4 provision (place-provision-katana-EU-NorthWest-p1) and
means the slowdisk EXTRACT path never worked on hosts with a separate
/slowdisk device. Rewrite member paths with --transform so tar writes
directly into /slowdisk/rpc_<key>__data_<rel>; the symlink stays for the
container's runtime view. Also aligns restore-volumes' nested-path target
naming to the double-underscore convention clone-backup already uses.

Live test on rpc-uk-4 (unichain-mainnet pruned, 166G static_files moved to
/slowdisk + symlinked): reth healed consistency, initialized the
StaticFileProducer, and resumed committing canonical blocks - full
read/write through the symlink. The guard's premise (old reth refusing
symlinked static_files) no longer holds; pre-v2 reths fail loudly at start,
fallback is --no-slowdisk. Restores/clones of reth nodes to SLOWDISK=True
hosts now offload statics automatically (NVMe is the scarce resource).
Note: reth also has --datadir.static-files for a flag-based layout later.

backup-node.sh now stops services, fences COMPOSE_FILE during backup, and
restores via EXIT trap; consumers skip <1MB .tar.zst artifacts so purged-
volume junk cannot shadow real backups.

- Add RETH GUARD to clone-backup.sh and clone-node.sh: when the config name
contains 'reth', skip the whole /slowdisk static-file symlink offload and
extract everything onto the primary disk (equivalent to --no-slowdisk).
This matches the already-correct restore-volumes.sh behavior.
Reason: reth refuses to start when its static_files directory is a symlink,
failing at boot with 'failed to create dir static_files: File exists'.
- Add --keep-directory-symlink to all tar extraction options in both scripts
for the SLOWDISK path. This allows tar to extract files THROUGH the
pre-created directory symlinks instead of trying to mkdir over them
(which fails with 'Cannot mkdir: File exists'). This matches the
already-correct restore-volumes.sh behavior.

Mirror the restore-volumes.sh --no-slowdisk capability for live/backup clones.
Both scripts gate the target /slowdisk static-file offload on the target's
SLOWDISK env (case-insensitive, matches the Python-templated 'True') and accept
a --no-slowdisk flag that forces the offload off for one run. When SLOWDISK is
on but the target /slowdisk is too small for the static files, the clone warns
and aborts, telling the operator to re-run with --no-slowdisk.
