Keep a try off the forge and bound how many run (hq issue 686)
Review of #314: a try's start named its commit, which the forge's holder
matches to an open pull request's head and marks pending. Its start now
names no repository or commit. One try per commit and four in all, a try
never ages ahead of deliveries or pull request checks, and its id is
checked before it is a bus subject.

// A branch is tried before its pull request (novox/hq issue 686).
//
// A repository's store tests skip without a store, and no agent may start a database on its machine. So a
// builder pushed, a reviewer read, and only the pull request's merge check ran those tests for the first time:
// each failure there cost a round of fifteen to thirty minutes (mesh-controller #283, #310, #312).
//
// `try <owner>/<repository> <ref>` asks the build seat for the repository's own check of a pushed branch or
// commit, as the merge check runs it (internal/builder/check.go): the ref merged into the trunk's head, the
// trunk's merge-check.sh, each part in its toolchain's container, against a throwaway store and bus. It is a
// check and nothing more:
//
// - **no pull request, so no status**: its outcome is never said as `checked`, which is what the forge's
// holder sets statuses from (isTry, in Built);
// - **nothing registered, nothing built**: it names no module of the graph, so the merge gate does not run and
// no build is made for a merge (novox/hq ADR 0350's scratch builds are a pull request's check's alone);
// - **a check in the build queue**: after deliveries (link.KindOf, novox/hq issue 558), and bounded by the
// check's own bound (checkTimeout);
// - **the code a pull request's check would run anyway**: only a repository of the mesh, whose every pull
// request the build seat already checks, in containers that hold no runtime socket.
//
// A check outlasts a seat verb's one answer, so the ask answers its id at once and `try --id <id>` reads what
// came of it from the build's log, where the build seat says it whole (link.StepTried): holding its answer up
// to tryWait for a verdict, like `plans wait` (novox/hq issue 229). Nothing is kept beside the log.
// tryWait is how long reading a try holds its answer for the verdict. A variable so a test need not wait.
