Make the forge's tools act as an account of their own, not the administrator (issue 469, ADR 0365 clause 2)
The tools' token reached everything the administrator may do, so their boundary rested on their own guards.
The gitea module now makes a plain account, mesh-tools, with the admin login, gives it write on code, issues
and pull requests of every novox repository through one team, and mints the tools' token for it; the admin's
old token goes only after the new one is kept. The Go forge bundle sends that token, never the admin login.
The forge shows protection rules only to a repository administrator, so every check reads a branch's
protection from the branch. mesh-admin stays a ready author, so marks made before the move keep counting.

// The forge's tools act as an account of their own, not the site administrator (novox/hq ADR 0365 §2, issue 469):
// the token the tools and the watcher use is minted for `mesh-tools`, a plain account made by the module with the
// administrator's login and given write on the mesh's repositories through one team; the administrator's own
// token by that name goes; a token kept from before, the administrator's, is minted again for the account.
//
// The forge is a fake that keeps accounts, their tokens and the organisation's teams apart, and answers as gitea
// does: an administrator may mint for another account (reqSelfOrAdmin), anyone else only for itself; a protection
// edit needs the repository's administration, which neither a plain account nor its write team holds.
