--all expanded to (dev beta prod) and then tried to check all three from
wherever it was run. No host carries all three: dev is on vps1, beta and prod
are on vps2. So --all could not succeed anywhere, and the way it failed was
misleading rather than obvious -- on vps1, prod resolves TG_BAO_APPROLE to
/etc/thermograph/openbao-approle, which on THAT box holds dev's credential, so
prod's check authenticated as tg-dev and took a 403 from tg-host-prod.hcl.
That reads like a policy bug. It is "wrong box".

--all now means "every environment that lives on THIS host". Residency is
decided by the environment's own address being bound here (TG_SSH_HOST against
the local interfaces), and skips are announced rather than silent.

Residency is deliberately NOT decided by TG_APP_DIR existing. That was the
first attempt and it was wrong: vps1 still carries a stale /opt/thermograph
from before the estate split (d5357d0, #106), so prod looked resident there and
got checked anyway. Verified against both live hosts. A leftover directory is
exactly the kind of thing that outlives the arrangement it belonged to.

Zero environments checked is now a FAILURE. Previously a run that skipped
everything would exit 0, and a green run is precisely what the 7-day cutover
gate counts -- "nothing was wrong" and "nothing was examined" must not look
alike. The success line reports how many were checked and says plainly that a
green run on one host says nothing about the other.

Live-verified on both boxes:
  vps1 --all -> dev PASS, beta and prod skipped, exit 0
  vps2 --all -> dev skipped, beta and prod checked (both currently failing on
                the three known stale common.yaml keys)
