Compose a process's environment as a container's

A module's own code moving out of its container (novox/hq to-be 38 WP4c)
becomes a process on the machine, and still has to be told what its
container was: the port this machine gave the module and where the
foundation's seats are. ${port:…} and ${seat:…} were filled only in a
file's content and a container's env, so in a process's env they reached
the machine as literals, and the modules that moved first (mesh-catalog
#245) wrote their run-once steps a 0600 env file instead. A process's env
now takes the same resolution and the same refusals; ${dir:…} and
${access:…} already did, and a bundle's env (ADR 0192) already resolves
${dir:…} and ${port:…}.
