Unpredictable "passthrough" behaviour
Metadata
Current evaluation
Inconsistent passthrough behavior between snapcraft.yaml and gadget.yaml; untriaged, no activity for 1326 days
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue is 1326 days old with zero maintainer engagement, no labels, and no comments. The project has likely evolved significantly since then, and the reported behavior may no longer be reproducible or relevant to current versions. No evidence suggests this is still an active concern.

Issue body
"passthrough:" stanza behaves differently when used in snapcraft.yaml and gadget.yaml
If used in snapcraft.yaml, "passthrough" level is removed and the block under "passthrough" is bumped one level up, without snapcraft doing any sanity parsing of that block.
Like this, there is no "passthrough" in generated meta/snap.yaml
I assume this is correct behaviour.
But if "passthrough" us used in gadget.yaml, it is not touched and passed to generated meta/gadget.yaml
This created inconsistent behaviour and easily leads to yaml file in gadget snap having unexpected content.
