The `cert-issuer-name` and `cert-issuer-kind` properties point an app's generated `Certificate` at a cert-manager issuer created outside of Dokku, allowing certificates to be issued through solvers the built-in letsencrypt integration cannot use, such as `dns01` for wildcard certificates. Setting an issuer enables https on its own, as a manually managed issuer has no email for Dokku to configure. An imported certificate still takes precedence, and `letsencrypt-server false` remains the single off switch. Dokku warns before a build starts when the referenced issuer is absent from the cluster, without blocking the deploy. Wildcard domains no longer collide with their apex domain when generating ingress names, and `letsencrypt-server` values are now validated when set rather than at deploy time.
The `letsencrypt-email-prod` and `letsencrypt-email-stag` properties can now be set per app in addition to globally, resolving app-level before the global value for the app's selected `letsencrypt-server`. An app that sets its own email renders a namespaced cert-manager `Issuer` using that email, while apps without an override continue to use the shared `ClusterIssuer` with the global email.
Every Go-implemented plugin's `:report --format json` now emits keys without the redundant `<plugin>-` head segment, matching the shape bash plugins have always emitted. The CLI flag names and `:set` semantics are unchanged. For backwards compatibility during the 0.38.x patch series, the legacy `<plugin>-<property>` keys are emitted side-by-side with the new keys, and a future major release will drop the legacy keys. `common.ReportSingleApp` is refactored to accept a `ReportSingleAppInput` struct with a `Validate()` method so the input is checked before any work runs, which also catches the latent `"docker options"` reportType bug at the API boundary.
Adds the missing raw/global/computed report keys for ten settable properties across the ps, builder, scheduler, proxy, openresty, nginx, and scheduler-k3s plugins so external tooling can verify drift through `:report --format json`. The scheduler-k3s `token` is masked as `*******` in default stdout output and only unmasked when the report is requested via `--format json` or when the flag is queried explicitly by name; the same explicit-query unmasking rule is extended to the existing traefik `dns-provider-<env_var>` keys.
Three plugins still leaked the built-in default through `<plugin>-global-<property>` after the broader raw/computed split in #8640. External tooling reading `:report --format json` for drift detection could not distinguish "set to default" from "never set" - after a `:set --global` followed by an unset, the JSON still reported the default value. The `<plugin>-global-<property>` keys now hold the raw stored value (empty when nothing has been set) and `<plugin>-computed-<property>` keys hold the effective value with per-app, global, and built-in default fallback. Every global property now has a computed sibling for shape consistency, including those whose default is empty. Internal callers in `scheduler-k3s` that previously read the default-applied global helpers now consume new `getComputed*` helpers, keeping deploy-time behavior unchanged.
