+Each server accepts an optional `discoveryRevision` string (default empty, not
+interpolated). Set it to a fresh revision to trigger rediscovery when the updated
+configuration is next used. It changes the complete configuration fingerprint,
+so all components and feature lists are rediscovered and subsequent stateful
+calls use new downstream runtimes. Reusing an earlier value can reuse its cached
+catalog. The value is not sent to downstream servers.
