go/asks: an ask says what a channel that proves who answers shows whole, and what Details shows (hq issue 383)
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds mesh-sdk, sent nowhere; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it did without (4 of 4 compose)
mesh/repo-check pass: its merge-check.sh passed, each part in its toolchain: merge-check.sh (typescript), go/merge-check.sh (go)
mesh/delivery delivered

A settings proposal reached the phone with its values masked, so the operator could not
tell what they were approving. An ask now carries Whole, shown in place of Explanation on
a kind that proves its sender and carries the ask's answers, and Details, what the
Details answer shows. Both enter the digest only when given, so an ask without them
digests as before and a router and an asker of different builds still agree on it.
