The recipe started FROM the upstream server's digest directly, and the build machine
refuses that: every base is declared under build.on and copied into the mesh's own
store before a build, so a build never reaches out to a registry the mesh does not
run (novox/hq ADR 0097). Found the first time the module was built on a real mesh.
Same digest, now declared as NATS_BASE and arriving as a build argument; the
Dockerfile says where it comes from and why the digest is the index's.
