`Config._dedupe_existing_paths()` drops roots whose directory does not exist
when the root list is built, so a drive that is switched off while LM starts was
not "an offline root" — it was not a root at all. The Refresh ▾ menu had no row
for it in either state, a full refresh reported nothing (its cached entries
survived only because they fall outside every configured prefix), and plugging
the drive back in changed nothing until the next restart.
* `Config` now records the configured (existence-unfiltered) paths per model
type — from ComfyUI's list in plugin mode, from the active library snapshot in
standalone mode, where the host mock filters non-existent paths itself — and
exposes them through `configured_roots_for()`.
* `ModelScanner.describe_model_roots()` appends configured-but-unavailable roots
with a live `reachable`, an `available` flag and their cached entry count, so
`/roots` (and therefore the menu) offers a row in both states: greyed while the
directory is missing, normal and clickable once it is back.
* `_reconcile_cache()` reports them as `skipped_roots` / `unavailable_paths` with
reason `root_unavailable` and counts their cached entries in `kept_unreachable`,
which is what makes the "N models kept" toast appear in the startup-offline
case. Report-only: they stay outside the scan scope, so nothing about pruning
changes. A root-scoped scan stays quiet about roots it was not asked about, and
a folder-scoped scan only mentions a missing root that holds cached entries of
that folder.
* `Config.admit_configured_roots()` re-runs the per-type prepare helpers against
the configured paths and APPENDS what is readable now (plus the
checkpoint/unet/other side maps), then refreshes the preview allowlist, so a
drive plugged in mid-session can be scanned without restarting. Append-only and
order-preserving by design: removing a root mid-session would let a later
settings save persist the loss, and re-sorting would move `*_roots[0]`, which
derives the recipes directory and the usage-stats file location. `_roots[0]`
never moves.
* `/roots` and `/scan` admit first, so `describe_model_roots()` stays a pure read
and a caller that never opens the menu (the browser extension) still gets a
drive that came back.
Verified on the sandbox with drive-Z switched off before startup: `/roots`
reports `drive-Z reachable=false available=false models=60`, a full refresh
returns `skipped_roots=[drive-Z root_unavailable]`,
`unavailable_paths=[{... kept: 60}]`, `kept_unreachable=60`, and all 432 models
stay cached. Renaming the drive back while the server runs admits it
(`available=true`) and `GET /scan?roots=<drive-Z>` walks it with no restart.
