Older writeCheck inserts omitted target_type, so every seed-created check_def
had a NULL/empty target_type. checkSSHScript's IsGuest check then never matched,
and guest checks silently fell back to their baked (often mesh-only) address —
keeping them 'down' even after the pct-exec routing and deployed scripts were
in place. rclone stayed down for exactly this reason after the host-hop fix.
writeCheck now writes target_type, and checkSSHScript resolves the type from
the target_id when the column is blank (a runtime safety net for existing rows;
the seed rows were also backfilled in the live DB).
