jschoubben 41b20b2782 A grant secret belongs to whoever provisions, and the sweep skips what it will not address
Issue 225. The mesh seals one credential per consumer beside the provider's
contributions file, and wrote it root-owned. That was right while a module's
own code ran in a container as root; ADR 0198 moved that code under the node's
runtime, as the node's account, and the secret stayed root's. On the control
machine two consumers went unprovisioned for three hours and the only sign
was a line reading 'secret not readable yet', 4330 times.

The same sentence is already written for a module's own secrets a few hundred
lines above — 'a root-owned 0600 file is one that process cannot read'. This
is that rule reaching the other kind of secret the mesh writes for a module.

Issue 226. The sweep met a reference recorded with the store's old address,
read 'I will not address this' as 'the store refuses everything', and
collected none of the 1681 it had found. Two changes: references from build
records are read through Recorded, where the provenance is known — not in
LetGo, which cannot tell one registry host from another and must stay strict
— and a reference the sweep will not address is now ErrNotOurs, skipped,
never a reason to stop. Only the store refusing ends a sweep.

make check: the two failures both fail on main as well — the resolver test
(hq 202/203) and the service-manager test, which reads this machine's own
shell environment.

// What the artifact store keeps, and what it may let go (novox/hq ADR 0189, issue 108).
//
// The store has never collected anything: every build pushes another layer set and nothing has
// ever removed one. The registry's own answer — collect what no tag names — is wrong here, because
// the mesh pushes each artifact under one moving tag and pins machines by digest, so every build
// but the newest is untagged and some machine may still be running it.
//
// **So the mesh decides, from its own records, and it never has to look in the store to do it.**
// It has never put anything there it did not record, which means every digest it could remove is
// already in a build row. A digest the mesh did not record making is therefore never named here —
// not as a safety margin but as the rule restated, and it is what keeps the sweep away from the
// images genesis pushed before any record existed (04-ISSUES/102, F4).
// KeptBuilds is how many successful builds of each module keep their artifacts, counting the
// newest. The newest is what the mesh hands a machine now; the four behind it are how far back a
// release that turns out wrong can be taken.

// Three reasons an artifact stays, and nothing else is a reason:
//
// - **a definition names it** — the reference appears in a module's recorded manifest, which is
// what the mesh would hand a machine now. No age limit: this is the floor;
// - **the mesh can still go back to it** — it is an artifact of one of the KeptBuilds most
// recent successful builds of its module;
// - it was already collected, in which case there is nothing left to do.

// Returned in a stated order so two runs over the same records ask for the same things in the
