- PR #137347: fix(gateway): flush a spooled pending message under the session store's key so a restart can replay it

The members concern gateway shutdown flush files being written under the adapter's session key rather than the session store's key, which may prevent restart recovery from mapping them when per-user isolation flags differ. One issue describes the problem, and two pull requests with identical titles propose flushing spooled pending messages under the session store's key.
