Description
I have the following config (Salt 3001):
file_client: local
startup_states: sls
sls_list:
- start
When I shutdown salt master start.sls is not executed until the minion is connected to the master.
I think it should execute local startup states regardless of master connection.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported configuration with file_client: local, startup_states: sls, and sls_list containing start while the master is shut down. Trace the minion startup-state path to determine why execution waits for a master connection; done means start.sls runs locally without that connection and the behavior is covered by a regression test.
