Let a module declare a log the controller creates and never removes (ADR 0297)
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds build-agent, mesh-controller, route-proxy → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it…
mesh/repo-check pass: its merge-check.sh passed
mesh/delivery superseded: a newer head of the same pull request

The issue tracker's history lasts seven days on the events stream and its
bucket fills toward a cap with no warning (issues 501, 502). A module may
now declare `logs`; the controller creates each as a stream on the bus
(create-or-update, never deleted or recreated, reported when undeclared),
issues it to the owner's assignments in their membership, grants the
runtime exactly the append and direct-read subjects, and raises a
condition when any module's bucket or log reaches 75% of its cap, cleared
below 70%.

// A module's log on the bus (novox/hq ADR 0297): its record of operations, each entry appended under
// a key and kept as long as the log is.
//
// A log follows a bucket in every respect (ADR 0201): the module names it locally, the mesh derives
// its stream and subjects, the controller creates it from the catalogue on every raise and from
// registration, never a module, and **no path of the mesh removes one** — a log whose declaration
// is gone is reported, as a bucket is. Unlike a bucket, a log is its owner's alone: no other module
// reads it, so there is no read of a log to grant or issue.
//
// Pure, but for the stream's configuration, which is the server's own type so that what is tested
// is exactly what is sent; jetstream.go is the part that asks a server.
// The mesh's caps on a log: what an entry's value may weigh, what a message on the log's stream may
// weigh — the value and its headers, which the server counts in a message's size, so a value of the
// full size still fits with the expected-last-sequence header an append carries — and what a log holds
// when its module says nothing and at most.
