The node-engine owns the composition it alone runs (H1, H2)

ADR 0593 §1 and §7: compose, its bus reader and runtime reader, takein,
validate, the overlay generator, the composer's run and mesh-compose, and
the judgement of a move leave mesh-sdk for the node-engine's internal
packages, so no other module composes and a change to them rebuilds only
the node-engine. The shapes others read (the composer's request and
verdict, the overlay's names, compositions and answers) stay in mesh-sdk.
The node's grant is now a golden file of what the grants part composes,
since the composer of the bus's user list leaves mesh-sdk too.
