Fresh prod install ran Grav rc.10 (stale .env.prod GRAV_VERSION), so GPM
would not serve the api plugin (needs >=2.0.4); admin2 (auth via /api/v1)
then 404'd login silently. Documents the dead ends (deploying api config,
gpm index -f, same-channel assumption) and the fix (self-upgrade core +
reinstall + bump .env.prod). Adds reciprocal 'same 2026-07-04 cutover'
cross-links across the three sibling deploy gotchas.

On Admin2-only installs, login new-user auto-detects the admin permission
type to api-only, so accounts lack admin.login and silently fail on
access.admin.login-gated pages like /gpx-manager. Document the root cause,
the --admin-type both fix baked into make test-account, and prevention.
