Ask mesh-delivery for a recheck's group on a bus connection of its own (issue 867, ADR 0382 §1)

`delivery check` runs as a command of its own, where no serving connection exists, so a recheck said its siblings could not be learned ("this controller is not on the bus") and mesh-host#114 was judged without its sibling. groupsAsked now asks through onTheBus, which lends the serving connection or dials one, as the hand-act log does. TestTheRecheckVerbAsksMeshDeliveryOnABusOfItsOwn drives the verb against a real responder.
