feat: [wip] usrmerged parts by default
Metadata
Current evaluation
WIP PR to enable usrmerged parts by default. Inactive for 369 days with failing CI. The feature has since been implemented and merged via commit 1c4a9d78 (usrmerged install dirs for 25.10+) and documented in 1.15.0 release notes.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The PR is a WIP with no activity for 369 days and failing CI (snap-tests, Fast/Slow tests on noble and jammy). The feature it targets is already implemented in main: commit 1c4a9d78 'feat: use usrmerged install dirs for 25.10+' sets usrmerged_by_default=True in lifecycle.py, and the 1.15.0 release notes document 'Improved usrmerge support'. This PR is superseded.
