scripts/prereqs/ -- workstation/workspace prerequisite installers

New operators start here. These scripts get a Debian/Ubuntu workstation (or the vcloud host / Office1 control point) ready to run the VR1 DC-DC workflow, so a runbook never assumes a runtime is already present (DOCFIX-178). Each installer is idempotent (a satisfied prereq is a no-op) and supports --check (read-only report) and --dry-run (print actions, mutate nothing).

Quick start

bash scripts/prereqs/check-prereqs.sh      # read-only: what's missing?
bash scripts/prereqs/install-all.sh --dry-run   # preview
bash scripts/prereqs/install-all.sh        # install everything missing (uses sudo)

Then re-login (or newgrp libvirt) if the virtualization installer just added you to the libvirt group, and re-run check-prereqs.sh to confirm all green.

What each script covers

Script	Prereq	Needed by
`install-opentofu.sh`	OpenTofu `tofu` >= 1.6.0 (deb repo -> `/usr/bin/tofu`)	dc-dc Stage 1-6 `tofu` steps + `scripts/opentofu-validate.sh`
`install-virtualization.sh`	libvirt + qemu-kvm + virsh + `libvirt` group	dc-dc Stage 1+ (pools, networks, node VMs)
`install-jq.sh`	jq	cloud-assert + many ops scripts (and the test gauntlet)
`install-image-tools.sh`	qemu-utils (`qemu-img`) + `xorriso`	Stage 2/3 OPNsense build (`opnsense-prep-image.sh`, `opnsense-build-config-iso.sh`)
`check-prereqs.sh`	(read-only report of all of the above + curl/python3/sudo)	run first, on any new workspace
`install-all.sh`	orchestrator over the four installers + a final check	one-pass setup
`lib-prereq.sh`	shared helpers (sourced, not run)	the installers

Scope + conventions

Debian/Ubuntu (apt) only. On another OS each installer fails loud (exit 3) and tells you to install manually -- it does not guess a package manager. tofu and the ISO builder have portable upstream options; see each script.
sudo is used only for the actual package install / group change. The --check and --dry-run modes never touch the system and never call sudo.
tofu, not opentofu. The OpenTofu installer uses the deb method on purpose: every runbook step and scripts/opentofu-validate.sh call the tofu command, which the opentofu snap may not expose.
Run via bash scripts/prereqs/<name>.sh (these are not marked executable, per this repo's convention). Harness: tests/prereqs/run-tests.sh.
