* fix: eliminate os.Chdir in sequential helmfiles to fix relative path resolution
The sequential code path used within() → os.Chdir() to change the
process-wide working directory when processing helmfile.d files.
This broke relative environment variable paths (e.g. KUBECONFIG=kubeconfig.yaml)
because they resolved from the wrong directory after chdir.
Replace the chdir-based approach with the same baseDir parameter pattern
used by the parallel code path, passing explicit directory context through
loadDesiredStateFromYamlWithBaseDir() instead of mutating global process state.
Closes#2409

* fix: restore within() for single-file sequential to preserve chart path format
The previous approach used baseDir for all sequential processing, which
changed chart path format in output (e.g. from "../../../../charts/raw"
to "test/integration/charts/raw"). This broke integration tests that
compare chart paths in expected output.
Now the sequential branch uses two strategies:
- Single file: use os.Chdir via within() to preserve backward-compatible
relative chart paths in output
- Multiple files with --sequential-helmfiles: use baseDir parameter to
avoid os.Chdir, fixing relative env var paths like KUBECONFIG (#2409)

* fix: revert e2e snapshot outputs to match within() behavior
The previous commit restored within() for single-file sequential
processing, which produces relative chart paths (e.g. ../../charts/raw)
and filename-only FilePath. Revert the e2e snapshot expected outputs
to match main branch since single-file behavior is now identical.

* fix: restructure integration test for multi-file sequential processing
- Point -f at helmfile.d/ directly (not parent dir) so findDesiredStateFiles
discovers the yaml files
- Add second helmfile to trigger baseDir path (len > 1)
- Inline environment config to avoid base file relative path issues
- Verify both releases appear in output instead of comparing with parallel
(which may differ in ordering)

* fix: reduce cognitive complexity and improve accuracy of sequential helmfiles
Replace inline visitSubHelmfiles closure with calls to the existing
processNestedHelmfiles() method, matching the parallel path. This
eliminates duplicated nested logic and reduces gocognit complexity
below the CI threshold of 110. Also fixes help text and docs to
accurately describe that single-file processing still uses within(),
and adds kubeContext verification to the integration test.

* test: validate kubeContext resolution in sequential helmfiles integration test
Restructure the integration test to replicate the exact user scenario
from issue #2409:
- Multiple files in helmfile.d/ using bases: with relative paths
(../bases/) for environments and defaults
- Environment values set kubeContext via .Environment.Values
- helmDefaults.kubeContext rendered from gotmpl
- Local chart references (../../../../charts/raw) from helmfile.d/
- Run diff against the minikube cluster to exercise kubeContext
resolution, which would fail with "context does not exist" if
os.Chdir() broke relative path resolution
- Also verify template output for both releases and relative values
file (values/common.yaml) resolution
Fix normalizeChart() in util.go to be idempotent — skip re-prefixing
when the chart path already starts with basePath. This prevents
double-prefixing of local chart paths (e.g. helmfile.d/test/.../raw)
when normalizeChart is called multiple times (once during chart
preparation and again during diff/sync).

* fix: array merge regression - layer arrays now replace defaults (#2353)
PR #2288 introduced element-by-element array merging to fix#2281, but this
caused a regression where layer/environment arrays were merged instead of
replacing base arrays entirely.
This fix uses automatic sparse array detection:
- Arrays with nil values (from --state-values-set) merge element-by-element
- Arrays without nils (from layer YAML) replace entirely
This follows Helm's documented behavior where arrays replace rather than merge.

* fix: use separate CLIOverrides field for element-by-element array merging
The previous approach using ArrayMergeStrategySparse detection didn't work
for --state-values-set array[0]=value because setting index 0 produces no
nils in the array.
This fix adds a CLIOverrides field to Environment that keeps CLI values
separate from layer values. CLI overrides are merged last using
ArrayMergeStrategyMerge (always element-by-element), while layer values
use the default strategy (arrays replace).
This ensures:
- --state-values-set array[0]=x only changes index 0, preserving other elements
- Layer/environment file arrays still replace base arrays entirely
- Issue #2281 fix is preserved (--state-values-set array[1].field=x works)

* fix: propagate Defaults in multi-part helmfiles and fix merge order
- Add Defaults field merging from ctxEnv to preserve base values across
helmfile parts separated by ---
- Fix merge order: current part values now correctly override previous
parts (was reversed, causing older values to win)
- Update 147 snapshot test files for new Environment log format with
CLIOverrides field
This completes the fix for issue #2353 by ensuring:
1. Layer arrays replace entirely (not element-by-element merge)
2. CLI --state-values-set sparse arrays still merge element-by-element
3. Multi-part helmfiles properly inherit and override values

* fix: ensure templates access merged values via .Environment.Values
This commit fixes a regression in the CLIOverrides integration where
templates accessing .Environment.Values couldn't see CLI override values.
Changes:
- Remove CLIOverrides-into-Values merge from Merge() to keep proper
layering order (Defaults → Values → CLIOverrides) in GetMergedValues()
- Update NewEnvironmentTemplateData to set envCopy.Values to the merged
values, ensuring templates see the same values via both .Values and
.Environment.Values
This ensures:
- Issue #2353: Layer arrays still replace entirely (Sparse strategy)
- Issue #2281: CLI sparse arrays still merge element-by-element
- Templates can access CLI overrides via .Environment.Values

* fix: use merged values when rendering environment value files
Environment value files (*.yaml.gotmpl) can reference CLI values via
.Values. Previously, only env.Values was passed to template rendering,
which didn't include CLIOverrides.
Now we call env.GetMergedValues() to get Defaults + Values + CLIOverrides
before rendering, so templates can access CLI values like:
--state-values-set foo=bar
This fixes the state-values-set-cli-args-in-environments integration test.
