Description

In the above PR, the Manifest-Metadata-Consistency label was applied for

NestedInstallerFiles

However, the commit did have NestedInstallerFiles, it was just placed at the root node instead of the installer node

Research direction

Start with the linked pull request and the manifests\f\Fly-io\flyctl\0.2.2 path. Trace the Manifest-Metadata-Consistency check to see how it compares root and installer nodes, then reproduce the missing NestedInstallerFiles report with these manifests. Done means root-level properties are considered and valid manifests no longer receive this inconsistency label.
