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).

// **The move of config** (novox/hq ADR 0348 §9 and its consequences, design 57 K5, issue 664): every config value a
// settings layer holds is set in mesh-config, one of the moves of data a release runs once after its delivery, after
// the move of placement. A module's layer on a node becomes its own value on that node (`module.<node>.<module>.<key>`).
// A whole-mesh layer has no module value for the whole mesh (ADR 0348 §3): its value becomes mesh config for the
// predefined key it falls back to where that module alone falls back to the key (claude-code's managed settings
// become `agent-managed-settings`), and otherwise the module's own value on each node it is assigned to, laid under
// that node's layer as composition lays it. A key a layer still says by its file's name (nodered's `timeZone`) is
// set under its config key (`time-zone`, issue 751).
//
// **Every node composes byte for byte as before.** The move sets the values, reads every module's resolved values
// back through mesh-config and compares them with what the layers lay today; only when they agree does it empty the
// layers it moved (each kept whole in its history first) and turn on the switch (inventory.FinishConfigMove), after
// which the controller reads mesh-config where it read the layers. A module still in the settings form keeps its
// layers and is said so. Anything that cannot move as it composes refuses the whole move, by name, before anything
// is set. Asked again, it sets nothing that is set already.
