docker: make log rotation a preference, 100m x 10 by default, judged by a step before daemon.json takes it (novox/hq issue 452)
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds docker → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it did without (4 of 4 compose)
mesh/repo-check pass: its merge-check.sh passed, each part in its toolchain: merge-check.sh (go), merge-check-typescript.sh (typescript)
mesh/delivery failed: its walk failed, carrying its own commit: a gate on a first machine (what it carried put back), a build, a machine

The controller pastes a setting into daemon.json as text and the runtime is its
only reader, so a bad size would surface as a runtime that does not start and a
quote could add any key. A step refuses the value first and gates the module.
The defaults are the one hand-set machine's, so it does not change; nothing
restarts the runtime, which takes the keys at its next start.

A whole number from 1 with k, m or g after it, refused before daemon.json is written. The runtime reads it only at its next start, which the mesh never forces, and a container created before that keeps the options it was created with until it is created again"
