Merge pull request 'build(deps): align with Gitea registry (parent 2.2.1, QQQ 4.1.0-RC.26)' (#40) from deps/align-gitea into develop

QQQ 4.1.0-RC.26 (RecordVersionCheck.advance) advances a table's configured
record-version field on every update; a STRING version becomes a random
UUID. The upload-job table declared status as its version field, so every
update overwrote status with a UUID.

Drop the version field and compare the expected status inside the existing
account-lock transaction, which already serializes transitions across pods.

 ### Fixed
 
+- Upload-job status transitions no longer use `status` as the table's record-version field.
+  QQQ 4.1.0-RC.26 advances a configured version field on every update (a STRING version
+  becomes a random UUID), which overwrote upload status. The guarded transition now re-reads
+  status inside the existing cross-pod account-lock transaction. The upload-job table no longer
+  declares a record-version field; no schema or public API change.
+
 - Endpoint pickers for saved views, saved reports and saved bulk-load profiles are dropped when
   the host has not registered those possible-value sources, so hosts without them validate.
