jschoubben 5223169226 Genesis registers the control plane with the manifest its build produced
The control plane's manifest existed twice: at the root of its repository, read
whenever the mesh rebuilds it from source, and as a copy in the catalogue, read by
genesis. Nothing kept them equal, and the first rebuild replaced the mesh's record
with the repository's shape while every later push was refused (novox/hq
04-ISSUES/072). The builder's one-shot result already carries the manifest it built,
artifact resolved to the image; step 3 keeps it and step 9 registers it, re-pinning
the built image's bare id to the reference the registry assigned. The catalogue is
still read for the registry's and the builder's manifests and for phase two.

// Step 9 is where the control plane stops being a special case. These tests defend the two things
// that could go wrong quietly: pinning it to the wrong image, and delivering it store connections
// the mesh invented rather than the ones the foundation actually made.
// theControlPlaneModule is the manifest the build produces at step 3: the control plane's own,
// from the root of its repository, its artifact resolved to the image the machine built — named by
// the digest of its own configuration, with no registry in front (novox/hq ADR 0069).
//
// A fixture rather than the file itself, unlike the foundation example the rewrite tests use: the
// control plane is a different repository on a different branch, and a test that read it would
// pass or fail according to what somebody else had checked out. What it must stay faithful to is
// the SHAPE — the built image's bare id, the own-secret per context, the mount from the machine's
// path to the container's, and the environment file that fills what is not a path.
