A restored pane whose file is gone from disk comes back dirty, and Del asks before throwing its text away

A dump keeps a pane's text. Restored after its file was deleted, the pane
came back clean: the watch's baseline read of the missing file failed
quietly, and Del closed it without a word. Its text was then nowhere at
all. Restore now checks the file: a local path with nothing on disk comes
back as one deleted on disk, as the watch would have said. It says so
once, logs `changed N deleted`, and is dirty, so Del, Exit and Restore
ask first.
