fix: refresh stale ServerManager when a server id is reused

[dpage]

Summary

connection_manager() caches ServerManager objects keyed only by the Flask session id and the server's numeric id. If the configuration database is reset or restored without restarting pgAdmin, a newly created server can end up reusing the id of a deleted one (autoincrement restarts from 1 on a fresh DB), and the cached manager, still holding the old server's host/port/credentials/connection state, gets handed back as though it belonged to the new row. This can show a server as "connected" when it never has been, or worse, route queries at the wrong physical server.

Fixes #6090.

Change

Before reusing a cached manager, compare it against the current Server row's identifying fields (host, port, maintenance db, username, service, tunnel host). On a mismatch, release the stale connections and rebuild the manager via the existing update() path (the same mechanism already used by the server-edit endpoints), rather than trusting the numeric id match alone.

The same check is applied to the serialized manager state restored from the Flask session on a worker's first request (ServerManager.as_dict() now stores the identity fields), so a reused id cannot pick up the old row's saved password or connections either.

Each manager, and its serialized state, is also bound to the fs_uniquifier of the pgAdmin user it was built for, as the issue suggests. Nothing rotates the session id at login, so without this a new user who logs in on the same browser session and re-imports the same servers (the issue's own reproduction, where every connection field matches) would inherit the previous user's live connection and saved password.

Test plan

• New unit tests for Driver._manager_is_stale and Driver._saved_state_is_stale, including the different-user case (web/pgadmin/utils/driver/psycopg3/tests/test_manager_is_stale.py)
• regression/runtests.py --pkg utils.driver.psycopg3.tests.test_manager_is_stale: 10/10 passed
• regression/runtests.py --pkg browser.server_groups.servers.tests.test_check_connect: 11/11 passed (no regression in normal connect/edit flows)
• pycodestyle clean on all changed files

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved connection manager handling when server connection details change.
  • Ensured outdated cached connections are refreshed with current server settings.
  • Preserved restrictions for shared-server connections during updates.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for detecting changed or mismatched server connection details.

Psycopg3 manager refresh

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Manager identity validation and refresh web/pgadmin/utils/driver/psycopg3/__init__.py, web/pgadmin/utils/driver/psycopg3/tests/test_manager_is_stale.py	The driver compares cached manager connection fields with the current server record. Stale managers are released and updated. Tests cover unchanged identity, reused server IDs, and differences in connection fields.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 7e904

After a configuration database reset, an old cached or restored connection manager can still be associated with a newly created server, potentially showing a false connected state or sending queries to the wrong physical server. This concrete correctness and isolation risk should be fixed before merge.

In `@web/pgadmin/utils/driver/psycopg3/__init__.py`:
- Around line 168-183: Update the serialized manager-state flow around
_restore_connections_from_session() and _restore() to persist the originating
Server identity and validate it against server_data before restoring. When the
identity does not match, discard the serialized session_managers entry instead
of restoring it; preserve restoration for matching state, and add a regression
test covering the first restore after a configuration reset with a reused server
ID.
- Around line 113-120: Update the manager identity comparison used by the
relevant psycopg3 server reset/reuse flow to include a persisted, non-reusable
Server generation identifier in addition to the six connection fields. Ensure a
recreated Server with matching connection values is treated as new and does not
retain the old manager or connected state, and add a regression case covering
this reused-ID scenario.
