Builtins are chips that link to a glossary generated from the registry, and the virtual filesystem is drawn as a tree

#word draws a builtin as a chip on the tag's ground over a rule (Look and
Exec in acme's look green and exec red), a <code class="word"> in HTML,
and links it to its entry in a new Builtins chapter wherever that
chapter is in the same output (the book, the site). The chapter is
drawn from docs/typ/builtins-tty.json and builtins-gui.json, which
`zig build builtins-json -Dplatform=tty|gui` writes from the registry
and the Help rows (src/builtins_json.zig, tools/gen_builtins_json.zig;
summaryOf in ninep/ctl.zig is now pub); style.typ merges them, marking
the window-only words. The doc steps refresh their build's file first,
and each build's unit-test fails when its file is stale. Everyday words
first (`everyday` in style.typ), then groups by leader prefix as Help
has them, then settings, the words with no path, debugging and
internals, and last an A-Z index of every word. `zig build book` joins
the doc steps.

#fstree draws a directory tree with its connectors, a description
column and links to the sections that document each file; reference.typ
draws the served tree with it, each pane, pty and column file on its
own line, and a test in config.zig checks it against ninep/tree.zig's
files both ways. The cheatsheet has a two-level version. On the site
the tree reads as `tree` text in w3m and wraps descriptions under the
names on a phone.

The site's tutor draws its B1, B2, B3 and 1-2 chords as mouse glyphs;
the landing credits Plan 9 and acme, as does the book's title page;
install.typ no longer lists the mirrors (the footer does).

+//! Every builtin as JSON, for the docs' glossary (docs/typ/builtins-tty.json
+//! and builtins-gui.json, a build's list each; style.typ merges them):
+//! the rows the `Help` builtin draws (pardes.builtin_rows: the leader path
+//! and the other shortcuts) with what /commands says of each word (its doc
+//! comment's first sentence, or a setting's doc). One source, so the
+//! glossary and Help cannot drift; the test below fails when the committed
