match_status, matched_bill_id and ignored must move together, but they were
updated by copy-pasted inline UPDATEs across six routes/services — exactly how
they drift apart (QA-B5-04 left match_status='matched' with a NULL bill).
Add services/transactionMatchState.js (markMatched / markUnmatched / markIgnored,
each ownership-scoped, returning rows changed) and route the six single-
transaction transitions through it: matchTransactionToBill, unmatchTransaction,
ignoreTransaction, unignoreTransaction (transactionMatchService), the match/
unmatch handlers (routes/matches), and unmatch-on-payment-delete (routes/
transactions, routes/payments).
Guarded bulk auto-match sweeps (subscription tracking, merchant-rule matching,
historical import) and the retention purge intentionally keep their own queries
— their WHERE clauses carry idempotency guards (AND match_status='unmatched')
the simple helper must not silently drop.
Test: tests/transactionMatchState.test.js (transitions + ownership scoping).
transactionMatchService/subscriptionService regression suites still pass;
server 122 pass.
