Integrate N-able Cove backup accounts into Backupchecks using the Cove API.

Cove workstation devices are commonly powered off outside business hours, which used to produce false-positive missed-run alerts. Two mechanisms reduce this noise:
backup_software = "Cove Data Protection" and
backup_type = "Workstation", the missed-run generator is disabled.
No synthetic Missed rows are created when a workstation is off during a
scheduled slot.
Failed, Warning, Not started)
continue to surface via the normal import flow, so genuine problems still get reported.
Configure under Settings → Integrations → Cove → Workstation offline detection.
When enabled, every Cove import cycle checks each linked workstation's 28-day colorbar
(D09F08) and counts the consecutive trailing days with status 0
(no backup activity). If the streak crosses the warning or error threshold, a single synthetic
JobRun is upserted for that account so the alert appears in Run Checks. The same
row is reused across cycles, so it escalates Warning → Error in place and is removed
automatically once activity resumes. Runs that have already been reviewed in Run Checks are
never mutated or removed, so acknowledged alerts do not reappear.
