## Why The mirrorlist (PR #121) always load-balances round-robin. Round-robin is oblivious to how busy each mirror is, so a slow or saturated mirror keeps getting its fair share of new requests. This adds an opt-in **least-connections** strategy that favors the mirror currently handling the fewest in-flight requests, steering new work toward idle mirrors. Round-robin stays the default, so existing remotes are unchanged. ## How - **Model**: `models.Remote` gains `mirror_strategy` (`round_robin` default/empty, or `least_conn`). `ValidateMirrorStrategy` checks the enum and requires a non-empty mirrorlist for `least_conn`. Empty behaves as `round_robin` for back-compat. - **DB**: additive `mirror_strategy TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'round_robin'` column (CREATE TABLE + `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS`), wired through remoteCols/scanRemote/CreateRemote/UpdateRemote; empty normalized to `round_robin` on write. - **Engine**: a per-remote, per-pool-URL atomic in-flight gauge is incremented around each upstream call (head/fetch/checkUpstream). For a `least_conn` remote the attempt order starts with the least-loaded pool URL (ties broken by the existing round-robin rotation). Round-robin path and failover order are unchanged; single-URL pools are a no-op. - **Tests**: unit tests for least-loaded selection, round-robin default, gauge inc/dec, single-URL no-op, and validation; DB round-trip covers the new column; docker e2e adds a `least_conn` distribution test plus a real `dnf` install through a `least_conn` remote. Back-compat: unset/empty `mirror_strategy` is `round_robin`, so all existing remotes keep their current behavior.
