`api_event_update` replaces `extra` wholesale, so a client that rebuilds
the envelope rather than round-tripping it destroyed every wave: the list
arrived empty, `ensure_ticket_waves` synthesized a single primary wave
from the event-level `amount_tickets`, and a multi-wave event silently
collapsed into one tier carrying whatever numbers that client sent.
Reproduced against a running instance before fixing — a PUT whose `extra`
omitted the key turned a two-wave event into:
amount_tickets=999 price=77.0 waves=1
primary "Primary wave" 77.0 999
`promo_codes` has carried the same guard since the v1.6.8 merge, for the
same reason and in the same function; `ticket_waves` is the same class of
state — organiser-managed, living in `extra`, and invisible to a client
that does not implement it. I added the first and did not extend the
reasoning to the second.
The carry-over runs before `_validate_wave_capacity` so validation sees
the waves the event will actually end up with; otherwise a client that
omitted both the waves and a real capacity would be rejected for a
zero-capacity primary wave that existed only because its waves had just
been dropped. An explicit `[]` still resets, matching promo codes.
Note the aio webapp is not what surfaced this — it spreads the existing
`extra` and so preserves waves by accident. Any client that does not is
exposed.
6 tests, including one pinning the ordering and one that fails if either
organiser-owned `extra` field loses its guard. 126 pass.
