mesh-tools 97a2d841c7 Land feature 57's controller work on its release branch
The controller plans config, templates and moved providers' provisions,
hands bus accounts to the vault and judges the new manifest words, on the
feature's SDK and node-engine validator (feature 57, config and provisioning).

// `secret issued <provision>`: the credential a provider's software issued, taken from the provider and kept as
// the provision's one credential for every consumer (novox/hq ADR 0305, issue 526).
//
// **The value comes from the provider, never from whoever asks.** A module served by its machine's runtime calls
// under the runtime's one bus account, which carries that machine's agents' calls too, so a value handed to a
// verb could be anybody's. This line carries none: it asks the provider's own tool, on the provider's machine, in
// the controller's own name — the subject that names its caller, which the bus lets the controller alone publish
// (issue 365) — with a sealing key made for this one call. The tool answers only the controller, the value sealed
// to that key; the controller opens it, seals it to every holder and forgets it, as the desk's value is (ADR 0277
// §23). Asking again fetches the same value again, and a value every holder already holds is not sealed anew.
//
// **What this trusts: the provider's machine.** The answer is taken from whoever answers the provider's tool
// subject on the provider's machine first. On that machine its runtime serves the subject for every module it
// carries, so anything that runtime runs, or anything else granted that subject there, could answer before the
// provider does and hand the controller a value of its own. ADR 0305 accepts that by trusting the provider's
// machine, as the provider itself is trusted; the bus keeps every other machine from answering it.
