Hosts like rpc-us-32 put /var/lib/docker (or volumes/) on another mount;
tar -C / then EXDEV on every var/lib/docker/volumes/... member. Canonicalize
the deepest static prefix (readlink -f /var/lib/docker/volumes) and append a
--transform after SLOWDISK_TRANSFORMS. Keying only on /var/lib/docker misses
a real docker root with volumes/ as the symlink. No-op on normal hosts.
Per-volume _data static-file offload stays on SLOWDISK_TRANSFORMS.

Same duplicated listener code, same two latent bugs. Not exercised today
(de-32 target has SLOWDISK=False) but any clone to a SLOWDISK=True host
would have failed identically.

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.

- 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.
