jschoubben 3b5861282c Point at 0006 and 0008 rather than a record of their own
The language and the bundle ordering went into ADR 0006, where the substrate
and the control plane already live, and the store-per-context mechanics into
0008, which already decided the rule. Nothing changed but where the reasoning
is kept.

# The control plane's image.
#
# novox/hq ADR 0006: this image is pinned by digest in the bundle the host carries, fetched on a
# machine where no mesh exists yet, and run before there is anything to check it against. So it
# holds the program and nothing else — no shell, no package manager, no libc, nothing with a CVE
# feed of its own. What a person has to audit before trusting a first node is one binary.
#
# There are no CA certificates in here on purpose. Nothing it does today makes an outbound TLS
# connection to a public name: it reaches PostgreSQL on the machine it was raised on, and the
# broker is verified against a fingerprint pinned in a token rather than against a public root
# (novox/hq ADR 0004). Adding them "just in case" would put a trust store in the one image whose
# whole argument is that it contains nothing to reason about.
