A model root that moved earlier is mirrored under a pinned name derived
from its old path. If anything resolved against the new sidecar path before
the relocation ran, the destination got a map naming the mirror after the
*current* path. migrate_root's keep-newer transfer then dropped the source
map, so the moved metadata stayed orphaned under the pinned component while
reads followed the new name and rebuilt defaults — losing favorites, notes
and tags a second time.
The identity map is now relocated by relocate_root_map() instead of the
generic transfer: entries recorded under the old sidecar root win for the
roots they describe, destination-only entries are preserved, and the cache
is dropped so the next resolution reloads the merged map. A merge that
cannot be written is reported as a migration error rather than silently
stranding the moved metadata.
