countme: projectbluefin-countme never reports Bluefin Server (DDI, no bootc)

What

Bluefin Server ships projectbluefin-countme from system_files/shared (projectbluefin/server, re-tracked to common main at e416284). On that image the reporter never counts anything, for four independent reasons:

Scope. The script exits before any network call unless image-name starts with dakota or utah. Server's image-info.json has image-name: server.
Stream source. The stream comes only from bootc status; with no booted bootc image the script exits. Server is a DDI updated by systemd-sysupdate and has no bootc. It now declares its stream in image-info.json as image-tag: latest (Bluefin Server reports no stream identifier to countme server#97: its transfers follow GitHub Releases latest and nothing else), but the reporter never reads image-tag.
Stream allowlist. Even from bootc, any tag other than stable/testing becomes unknown, so latest could not be reported as-is.
Unit conditions. ConditionPathExists=/run/ostree-booted (absent on a DDI) and ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=/home (empty on a server) both skip the service.

The previous bluefin-countme (#1112 branch) also had ConditionPathExists=/run/ostree-booted, so the server image has never counted.

Evidence (QEMU, Bluefin Server 26.09.2, no real pings sent)

PROBE countme-info={"image-name":"server","image-tag":"latest"}
PROBE countme-timer=enabled active ostree-booted=no bootc=absent
PROBE-LOG countme: Send daily active-system ping to Project Bluefin skipped, unmet condition check ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=/home
PROBE countme-new=+ name=server + exit 0

What fixed would look like

This is a scope decision for maintainers, the same kind as the Utah sign-off on #1205. If server is to be counted:

add server to the name allowlist (and to docs.projectbluefin.io/analytics)
when no bootc image is booted, take the stream from image-info.json image-tag only for images that are not bootc images, never as a fallback for bootc images (where the baked tag is the compose tag)
accept latest as a stream
let the unit run without /run/ostree-booted, for example by moving the bootc check into the script, and reconsider ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=/home for server images

Server needs no change after this: re-tracking elements/bluefin-server/os-countme.bst picks it up.
