Tests that read ../../../mesh-catalog or ../../../mesh-host gave a verdict
that depended on what sat beside the checkout: a stale or dirty sibling
failed them on a desktop, and a missing one skipped them unseen. They now
read the clone the build seat puts in MESH_CHECK_BESIDE, failing when it is
absent there, and elsewhere a copy captured at a named commit.
The skip had hidden that the builder test read a module retired by ADR 0190.
The systemd reading test no longer counts the machine's own environment.d.
The live tests reached one shared bus and assert, read and remove the mesh's own objects by
their fixed names, so packages run in parallel deleted what each other read and the suite
passed only one package at a time; a red suite read as noise. internal/testbus starts a server
per test, linked in at the nats-server release go.mod pins, and a test holds that pin to the
catalogue's bus image and to the facts snapshot's bus when there is one, so the tests never run
a bus the mesh does not. The waiter test read a timing (the most connections held at one look)
and now reads the state it means (the fewest held across the wait). make check runs the packages
in parallel under the race detector, with a timeout.
