fix(#4558): report a byte-identical restore destination as already_present (#4599)

* fix(#4558): report a byte-identical restore destination as already_present

restore-custom-files treated a destination that is byte-identical to its
backup exactly like a missing one: plan reported it as `eligible`, --apply
re-copied the same bytes and reported `restored`, and both counters
included it. Because update.md drives its restore question off
eligible_count, the workflow re-offered the same no-op restore on every
update and accepting it never settled anything.

Emit a distinct `already_present` outcome for that case. It is excluded
from eligible_count and restored_count, --apply writes nothing for it,
and the backup is left intact. A differing destination is still
skipped_destination_exists and a missing one still restores normally.

Regression tests cover the identical-destination plan/apply paths, the
idempotence-after-success cycle (missing -> restored -> silent plan), and
a mixed backup. Docs for the outcome enum are updated to match.

* fix(#4558): tighten already_present wording after review

update.md's RESTORE_ELIGIBLE == 0 branch now also names the already-present
case, CLI-TOOLS.md no longer calls the follow-up plan run "silent" (the
entry is still reported, just never offered), and a test message reads
correctly.

* chore(#4558): add changeset fragment for #4599

* chore(#4558): acknowledge update.md growth from the restore-outcome guidance

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: update.md — added already_present restore-outcome guidance for #4558
