exclude terraform from rate limiting

Fixes #4808 by extracting the full username by:

- Get PID using pgrep
- Get UID from PID using /proc/${PID}/loginuid
- Get user name from UID using id
Also replaces "complex" pipe from ps to sed with a (hopefully) "simpler" (as in requiring less knowledge about the arguments of ps and regexps) invocation of cat and id.

+// Package updatemanager provides automatic update management for the NetBird client.
+// It monitors for new versions, handles update triggers from management server directives,
+// and orchestrates the download and installation of client updates.
+//
+// # Overview
+//
+// The update manager operates as a background service that continuously monitors for
+// available updates and automatically initiates the update process when conditions are met.
+// It integrates with the installer package to perform the actual installation.
+//
+// # Update Flow
+//
+// The complete update process follows these steps:
+//
+//  1. Manager receives update directive via SetVersion() or detects new version
+//  2. Manager validates update should proceed (version comparison, rate limiting)
+//  3. Manager publishes "updating" event to status recorder
+//  4. Manager persists UpdateState to track update attempt
+//  5. Manager downloads installer file (.msi or .exe) to temporary directory
+//  6. Manager triggers installation via installer.RunInstallation()
+//  7. Installer package handles the actual installation process
+//  8. On next startup, CheckUpdateSuccess() verifies update completion
+//  9. Manager publishes success/failure event to status recorder
+//  10. Manager cleans up UpdateState
+//
+// # State Management
+//
+// Update state is persisted across restarts to track update attempts:
+//
+//   - PreUpdateVersion: Version before update attempt
+//   - TargetVersion: Version attempting to update to
+//
+// This enables verification of successful updates and appropriate user notification
+// after the client restarts with the new version.

+// Package installer provides functionality for managing NetBird application
+// updates and installations across Windows, macOS. It handles
+// the complete update lifecycle including artifact download, cryptographic verification,
+// installation execution, process management, and result reporting.
+//
+// # Architecture
+//
+// The installer package uses a two-process architecture to enable self-updates:
+//
+//  1. Service Process: The main NetBird daemon process that initiates updates
+//  2. Updater Process: A detached child process that performs the actual installation
+//
+// This separation is critical because:
+//   - The service binary cannot update itself while running
+//   - The installer (EXE/MSI/PKG) will terminate the service during installation
+//   - The updater process survives service termination and restarts it after installation
+//   - Results can be communicated back to the service after it restarts
+//
+// # Update Flow
+//
+// Service Process (RunInstallation):
+//
+//  1. Validates target version format (semver)
+//  2. Determines installer type (EXE, MSI, PKG, or Homebrew)
+//  3. Downloads installer file from GitHub releases (if applicable)
+//  4. Verifies installer signature using reposign package (cryptographic verification in service process before
+//     launching updater)
+//  5. Copies service binary to tempDir as "updater" (or "updater.exe" on Windows)
+//  6. Launches updater process with detached mode:
+//     - --temp-dir: Temporary directory path
+//     - --service-dir: Service installation directory
+//     - --installer-file: Path to downloaded installer (if applicable)
+//     - --dry-run: Optional flag to test without actually installing
+//  7. Service process continues running (will be terminated by installer later)
+//  8. Service can watch for result.json using ResultHandler.Watch() to detect completion
+//
+// Updater Process (Setup):
+//
+//  1. Receives parameters from service via command-line arguments
+//  2. Runs installer with appropriate silent/quiet flags:
+//     - Windows EXE: installer.exe /S
+//     - Windows MSI: msiexec.exe /i installer.msi /quiet /qn /l*v msi.log
+//     - macOS PKG: installer -pkg installer.pkg -target /
+//     - macOS Homebrew: brew upgrade netbirdio/tap/netbird
+//  3. Installer terminates daemon and UI processes
+//  4. Installer replaces binaries with new version
+//  5. Updater waits for installer to complete
+//  6. Updater restarts daemon:
+//     - Windows: netbird.exe service start
+//     - macOS/Linux: netbird service start
+//  7. Updater restarts UI:
+//     - Windows: Launches netbird-ui.exe as active console user using CreateProcessAsUser
+//     - macOS: Uses launchctl asuser to launch NetBird.app for console user
+//     - Linux: Not implemented (UI typically auto-starts)
+//  8. Updater writes result.json with success/error status
+//  9. Updater process exits
+//
+// # Result Communication
+//
+// The ResultHandler (result.go) manages communication between updater and service:
+//
+// Result Structure:
+//
+//	type Result struct {
+//	    Success    bool      // true if installation succeeded
+//	    Error      string    // error message if Success is false
+//	    ExecutedAt time.Time // when installation completed
+//	}
+//
+// Result files are automatically cleaned up after being read.
+//
+// # File Locations
+//
+// Temporary Directory (platform-specific):
+//
+// Windows:
+//   - Path: %ProgramData%\Netbird\tmp-install
+//   - Example: C:\ProgramData\Netbird\tmp-install
+//
+// macOS:
+//   - Path: /var/lib/netbird/tmp-install
+//   - Requires root permissions
+//
+// Files created during installation:
+//
+//		tmp-install/
+//	   installer.log
+//		  updater[.exe]                    # Copy of service binary
+//		  netbird_installer_*.[exe|msi|pkg] # Downloaded installer
+//		  result.json                       # Installation result
+//		  msi.log                           # MSI verbose log (Windows MSI only)
+//
+// # API Reference
+//
+// # Cleanup
+//
+// CleanUpInstallerFiles() removes temporary files after successful installation:
+//   - Downloaded installer files (*.exe, *.msi, *.pkg)
+//   - Updater binary copy
+//   - Does NOT remove result.json (cleaned by ResultHandler after read)
+//   - Does NOT remove msi.log (kept for debugging)
+//
+// # Dry-Run Mode
+//
+// Dry-run mode allows testing the update process without actually installing:
+//
+// Enable via environment variable:
+//
+//	export NB_AUTO_UPDATE_DRY_RUN=true
+//	netbird service install-update 0.29.0

+// Package reposign implements a cryptographic signing and verification system
+// for NetBird software update artifacts. It provides a hierarchical key
+// management system with support for key rotation, revocation, and secure
+// artifact distribution.
+//
+// # Architecture
+//
+// The package uses a two-tier key hierarchy:
+//
+//   - Root Keys: Long-lived keys that sign artifact keys. These are embedded
+//     in the client binary and establish the root of trust. Root keys should
+//     be kept offline and highly secured.
+//
+//   - Artifact Keys: Short-lived keys that sign release artifacts (binaries,
+//     packages, etc.). These are rotated regularly and can be revoked if
+//     compromised. Artifact keys are signed by root keys and distributed via
+//     a public repository.
+//
+// This separation allows for operational flexibility: artifact keys can be
+// rotated frequently without requiring client updates, while root keys remain
+// stable and embedded in the software.
+//
+// # Cryptographic Primitives
+//
+// The package uses strong, modern cryptographic algorithms:
+//   - Ed25519: Fast, secure digital signatures (no timing attacks)
+//   - BLAKE2s-256: Fast cryptographic hash for artifacts
+//   - SHA-256: Key ID generation
+//   - JSON: Structured key and signature serialization
+//   - PEM: Standard key encoding format
+//
+// # Security Features
+//
+// Timestamp Binding:
+//   - All signatures include cryptographically-bound timestamps
+//   - Prevents replay attacks and enforces signature freshness
+//   - Clock skew tolerance: 5 minutes
+//
+// Key Expiration:
+//   - All keys have expiration times
+//   - Expired keys are automatically rejected
+//   - Signing with an expired key fails immediately
+//
+// Key Revocation:
+//   - Compromised keys can be revoked via a signed revocation list
+//   - Revocation list is checked during artifact validation
+//   - Revoked keys are filtered out before artifact verification
+//
+// # File Structure
+//
+// The package expects the following file layout in the key repository:
+//
+//	signrepo/
+//	  artifact-key-pub.pem      # Bundle of artifact public keys
+//	  artifact-key-pub.pem.sig  # Root signature of the bundle
+//	  revocation-list.json      # List of revoked key IDs
+//	  revocation-list.json.sig  # Root signature of revocation list
+//
+// And in the artifacts repository:
+//
+//	releases/
+//	  v0.28.0/
+//	    netbird-linux-amd64
+//	    netbird-linux-amd64.sig   # Artifact signature
+//	    netbird-darwin-amd64
+//	    netbird-darwin-amd64.sig
+//	    ...
+//
+// # Embedded Root Keys
+//
+// Root public keys are embedded in the client binary at compile time:
+//   - Production keys: certs/ directory
+//   - Development keys: certsdev/ directory
+//
+// The build tag determines which keys are embedded:
+//   - Production builds: //go:build !devartifactsign
+//   - Development builds: //go:build devartifactsign
+//
+// This ensures that development artifacts cannot be verified using production
+// keys and vice versa.
+//
+// # Key Rotation Strategies
+//
+// Root Key Rotation:
+//
+// Root keys can be rotated without breaking existing clients by leveraging
+// the multi-key verification system. The loadEmbeddedPublicKeys function
+// reads ALL files from the certs/ directory and accepts signatures from ANY
+// of the embedded root keys.
+//
+// To rotate root keys:
+//
+//  1. Generate a new root key pair:
+//     newRootKey, privPEM, pubPEM, err := GenerateRootKey(10 * 365 * 24 * time.Hour)
+//
+//  2. Add the new public key to the certs/ directory as a new file:
+//     certs/
+//     root-pub-2024.pem    # Old key (keep this!)
+//     root-pub-2025.pem    # New key (add this)
+//
+//  3. Build new client versions with both keys embedded. The verification
+//     will accept signatures from either key.
+//
+//  4. Start signing new artifact keys with the new root key. Old clients
+//     with only the old root key will reject these, but new clients with
+//     both keys will accept them.
+//
+// Each file in certs/ can contain a single key or a bundle of keys (multiple
+// PEM blocks). The system will parse all keys from all files and use them
+// for verification. This provides maximum flexibility for key management.
+//
+// Important: Never remove all old root keys at once. Always maintain at least
+// one overlapping key between releases to ensure smooth transitions.
+//
+// Artifact Key Rotation:
+//
+// Artifact keys should be rotated regularly (e.g., every 90 days) using the
+// bundling mechanism. The BundleArtifactKeys function allows multiple artifact
+// keys to be bundled together in a single signed package, and ValidateArtifact
+// will accept signatures from ANY key in the bundle.
+//
+// To rotate artifact keys smoothly:
+//
+//  1. Generate a new artifact key while keeping the old one:
+//     newKey, newPrivPEM, newPubPEM, newSig, err := GenerateArtifactKey(rootKey, 90 * 24 * time.Hour)
+//     // Keep oldPubPEM and oldKey available
+//
+//  2. Create a bundle containing both old and new public keys
+//
+//  3. Upload the bundle and its signature to the key repository:
+//     signrepo/artifact-key-pub.pem      # Contains both keys
+//     signrepo/artifact-key-pub.pem.sig  # Root signature
+//
+//  4. Start signing new releases with the NEW key, but keep the bundle
+//     unchanged. Clients will download the bundle (containing both keys)
+//     and accept signatures from either key.
+//
+// Key bundle validation workflow:
+//  1. Client downloads artifact-key-pub.pem and artifact-key-pub.pem.sig
+//  2. ValidateArtifactKeys verifies the bundle signature with ANY embedded root key
+//  3. ValidateArtifactKeys parses all public keys from the bundle
+//  4. ValidateArtifactKeys filters out expired or revoked keys
+//  5. When verifying an artifact, ValidateArtifact tries each key until one succeeds
+//
+// This multi-key acceptance model enables overlapping validity periods and
+// smooth transitions without client update requirements.
+//
+// # Best Practices
+//
+// Root Key Management:
+//   - Generate root keys offline on an air-gapped machine
+//   - Store root private keys in hardware security modules (HSM) if possible
+//   - Use separate root keys for production and development
+//   - Rotate root keys infrequently (e.g., every 5-10 years)
+//   - Plan for root key rotation: embed multiple root public keys
+//
+// Artifact Key Management:
+//   - Rotate artifact keys regularly (e.g., every 90 days)
+//   - Use separate artifact keys for different release channels if needed
+//   - Revoke keys immediately upon suspected compromise
+//   - Bundle multiple artifact keys to enable smooth rotation
+//
+// Signing Process:
+//   - Sign artifacts in a secure CI/CD environment
+//   - Never commit private keys to version control
+//   - Use environment variables or secret management for keys
+//   - Verify signatures immediately after signing
+//
+// Distribution:
+//   - Serve keys and revocation lists from a reliable CDN
+//   - Use HTTPS for all key and artifact downloads
+//   - Monitor download failures and signature verification failures
+//   - Keep revocation list up to date
