node-tools is a module beside mesh-tools: the runtime as a bundle, and serve is the console (hq ADR 0175, to-be 38 WP3)

One repository, two modules (ADR 0069). `node-tools/` holds the runtime — its code, tests, package
and the manifest of the module the controller composes a process for on every machine it is
assigned to: a bundle of `src/main.js`, the interpreter as a package, a place for the node's
credential, the loopback port the console declared, and leave to call every tool. Nothing about
how it runs: which bundles to load, where the credential is and whose machine it is are the
controller's to compose (WP2). The root module `mesh-tools` keeps the two images TypeScript
bundles are compiled in and a module's own service may run in; it is no longer how tools reach a
node.

As node-tools, `serve` is also the console (ADR 0175 §6): the same process answers MCP on
loopback for whoever is on the machine, through which the tools it serves can be called. A
module's own runtime in a container keeps serving without a listener.

The toolchain image now carries /app/runtime — a package.json saying the compiled files are ES
modules and the production node_modules — for the builder to copy into every TypeScript bundle,
so a bundle unpacked on a machine starts (ADR 0188 §5; the builder's side is the controller's).
Proven here by compiling node-tools with the toolchain's exact flags and starting the result.
The AMQP probe script is gone with the bus it probed.
