feat: atomic config management with validation and crash-loop rollback
증상
When openclaw.json is modified with invalid values, the gateway crashes on reload/restart and enters a crash loop. There is no rollback mechanism, no pre-apply validation that catches unresolvable env vars, and no fallback to a known-good state.
원인
OpenClaw gateway, skill, or agent configuration issue — root cause confirmed in the openclaw/openclaw issue tracker.
해결법
. The gateway should be self-healing, not fragile.
The existing .bak rotation helps with accidental overwrites but does NOT help with crash loops — all 5 backups can be bad configs if the agent keeps writing.
