Summary
This PR completes the public rename from LineWatch to UplinkWitness while deliberately preserving runtime identifiers that existing installations depend on.
Public-facing changes
docs/RENAMING.mdwith upgrade guidanceCompatibility intentionally preserved
This PR does not rename:
linewatch.servicelinewatch-dashboard.serviceLINEWATCH_*environment variablesdata/linewatch.sqlite3That keeps v1.0/v1.1 upgrades and historical data intact. Existing production installs should not rename their local directory merely to match the public brand.
Release history
Releases through v1.1.0 remain historically identified as LineWatch. Subsequent releases use the UplinkWitness public identity.
Validation
Closes the implementation portion of #6; the issue can be closed after merge and post-merge verification.
