A run today had a control-plane image built that minute and a
provisioner image built the day before. The rotation test failed against
a real database and it looked exactly like the change under test being
wrong — the provisioner was creating logins by a naming rule that had
been replaced hours earlier.
It was the rebuild. It covered `make image` and the builder binary and
none of the three other image targets, all of which the suite runs.
This is the same fault the builder line was added for, one target along,
and the comment there already names the precedent: building one and not
the other is the eleven-hour-old binary. A rebuild that covers most of
what a run uses is worse than one that covers none, because the run that
follows it is believed.
The test names each target rather than counting them, because what goes
wrong is a target that exists and is not run, and a count would not
notice.
