What does this PR do?
This PR assumes installed agent on upgrade.
Detecting installed based on marker file does not work prior to 8.8 as marker file is not there leading to incorrect control path.
During upgrade we resolve paths to proper value assuming upgrading agent is installed (as this is requirement anyways).
Other way would be to keep
runningInstalled
evaluation based on paths as before OR have two ways of detecting installed agent during upgrade based on previous agent version.Why is it important?
To make ugprade from <8.8 work
