jschoubben 2438883a5f Remove the inert MESH_SEAL_KEY, and cite the ADR that retired it correctly
ADR 0048 (2026-09-05) settled that a provider is handed the credential the mesh minted —
sealed to the provider node, unsealed by the host into a 0600 file — and removed the
symmetric seal from the SDK entirely; hq issue 032 records it resolved. The lab-only
MESH_SEAL_KEY injections were tombstones read by nothing: two-node-db went green on the
superuser delivery, not the seal key. Removed, and provider-uses-mesh-credential's
citations corrected from ADR 0053 (a scheduled step) to ADR 0048.

/**
* A provider creates the resource with the credential the mesh minted — novox/hq ADR 0048.
*
* The old provisioner generated its own password, sealed it with a key nothing delivered, and
* handed it back. This proves the corrected contract: redis's provisioner reads the mesh's
* contributions file and, for each consumer, the password the mesh minted and the host unsealed, and
* creates the ACL user under the login the mesh derived, with that exact password. No $MESH_SEAL_KEY
* is set anywhere. The proof is authentication: a client logging in as that consumer with the mesh's
* password gets PONG — where a provisioner that invented its own password would answer WRONGPASS.
*
* A hand-written contributions file and secret stand in for the control plane here (a full grant
* from a second module is a heavier bed); their SHAPE is exactly what mesh-controller writes — a
* `receives` doc with `as`/`secret`, and the secret file the host leaves after unsealing.
*
* MESH_LAB_HOST_BINARY=.../mesh-host MESH_LAB_BUNDLE=.../examples/foundation-first-node.lock
* scripts/build-module-runtime.sh redis builds mesh-runtime-redis:development, which
* scenarios/redis-node.yml stocks.
