Verify an od-db-backup cold backup by restoring it into a throwaway,
network-isolated Hyper-V VM (revert to checkpoint after), never over live
prod. Covers matching versions from MANIFEST, whole-datadir restore for
InnoDB, re-pointing the image path, and a pass/fail health checklist
(connects, Help>About version, Database Maintenance Check, recent data,
images open, no missing tables, optional mysqlcheck). Cites Open Dental
Backups / Manual Backups / Database Maintenance. Cross-linked with
od-db-backup.md; README updated.
