Updates_20260801 release prep: version bumps

[erikdarlingdata]

Summary

August 2026 release version bumps: all ten combined-install procs changed since Updates_20260701 move to the .8 minor with @version_date = 20260801. Follows the ten per-proc audit-fix commits already on dev (every proc audited by a dedicated agent plus a cross-proc consistency sweep; all blockers fixed and verified, harnesses green: QuickieStore 157/157, ReproBuilder 239/239, HumanEvents 195/195, PerfCheck 39/39).

sp_QueryStoreCleanup keeps 1.6/20260501: it is not in the combined install.

Test plan

• Version stamps verified by grep across all ten (PerfCheck's N-prefixed literals preserved)
• Spot installs on SQL Server 2022 with @version/@version_date OUTPUT verification

Review: version-bump-only release PR ✅

• Gather context (PR is version-bump-only release prep, merged, author erikdarlingdata)
• Verify diff only touches @version/@version_date lines
• Confirm Install-All/DarlingData.sql not directly edited
• Confirm version/date bump author is maintainer (allowed)
• Post final review

Checked the full diff (gh pr diff 846) across all 10 changed files. Every hunk is exactly the same two-line pattern:

-    @version = 'X.7',
-    @version_date = '20260701';
+    @version = 'X.8',
+    @version_date = '20260801';

No logic, formatting, or comment changes anywhere else in the diff.

• Scope: Confirmed no changes to Install-All/DarlingData.sql — only the ten per-procedure source files listed in the PR are touched, consistent with the repo rule that the combined install is CI-generated only.
• Authorization: This PR bumps @version/@version_date, which per repo convention is only allowed from the maintainer — the PR author is erikdarlingdata, so that's fine.
• Consistency: Minor version incremented .7 → .8 and @version_date set to 20260801 uniformly across all ten procs. sp_PerfCheck correctly keeps its N'...'-prefixed literals. sp_QueryStoreCleanup is correctly excluded per the PR description (not part of the combined install).
• Style: Formatting matches CLAUDE.md conventions already in place in each file (no new style issues introduced by a two-line diff).

No issues found — this is a clean, mechanical version bump. Nothing to flag.
