Issue the provisioner client its own account when its module declares no broker
mesh/merge-gate error: builds mesh-controller → novox; no bus step; the check could not run: killed by hand
mesh/repo-check error: the check could not run: killed by hand
mesh/delivery superseded: a newer head of the same pull request

The catalogue's mesh-provisioner-client declares only provisioner-broker:
the client speaks on the bus as itself. module issue refused it for
lacking a broker, assign minted nothing, and push refused it for lacking
an account, so no machine could run the client (issue 917).
