The rendered http base declared the `$connection_upgrade` map, which made a hybrid node impossible: one that serves a classic `conf.d` vhost alongside the edge plane has to declare that map itself, because the vhost proxies through `asgi.inc` and references it before any generation exists. Declared in both places it is a duplicate-directive `[emerg]`; declared only by the generation, a fresh box cannot start nginx until it has converged and cannot converge without serving. The map now belongs to the node bootstrap, joining `default_type` and `types_hash_max_size` in a split this design already had.

### Breaking

- `http.d/00_base.conf` no longer renders `map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade`. A node whose `nginx.conf` does not declare that map will fail `nginx -t` after upgrading. Every django-mojo-skeleton node already declares it. See Upgrade notes.

### Changed

- The rendered http base still owns everything the generated vhosts alone depend on — the mime include, `log_format main`, `$loggable`, `access_log`, and the blocklist maps every 443 block references unconditionally. Only the upgrade map moved.

### Upgrade notes

- Confirm your node bootstrap declares the map before upgrading:

  ```nginx
  map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
      default upgrade;
      ''      close;
  }
  ```

  It belongs in the `http { }` block of `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf`, next to `default_type` and `types_hash_max_size`. A fleet whose edge plane serves every host and carries no `conf.d` vhost of its own needs it too — the generated vhosts reference it on every proxied location.
- `docs/django_developer/edge/templates.md` carries the full include graph and the bootstrap this expects.
