Add the replay of issue 340: a verb set what every agent session obeys (hq issue 340)

The settings verb took the agent module's managed settings and an empty
runtime configuration's url from any caller. The replay uses only what the
controller had before #172, so mesh-lab's prover can show it fails there.
