Plan 9 idiom for the control filesystem, and the regressions a624a56 left

The 9P tree stops being a command language wearing a filesystem. /new
created a pane as a side effect of a *read*; it is now Tcreate in /pane,
with Tremove to close, which cloud9's engine has always supported and the
editor never declared: tree.zig now says
`features = .{ .create = true, .remove = true }`. Eleven pane ctl verbs
become files that can be read as well as written -- dot, limit, dirty,
mark, scroll, look, exec -- leaving ctl with `get`, the one verb no file
would say better. Root /ctl splits into a read-only /status and the
/look and /exec files whose write IS the click. stat carries real sizes
where it used to answer 0, and qid versions track a pane's revision, so a
client can poll for change without re-reading the body.

Commit a624a56 moved raw-tty keys to an early-return branch that knew only
Ctrl-B and bare Escape, and in the same edit deleted the paste branch below
it. That cost Shift-Escape (the unconditional way out of tty mode) and both
paste chords: Ctrl-V and Ctrl-Shift-V reached the child as keystrokes, so an
agent CLI running in a pane took Ctrl-V for its image-paste binding and
answered "No image found in clipboard". Both are restored, with tests.

Nested detection was not subtly broken but deleted: 60367d8 removed
nested.zig's process-ancestry walk and left "am I inside pardes" derived from
PARDES_FORWARD_LOOK, which read "0" both for --nested and for "the listener
did not come up". PARDES_PID now answers that question on its own, checked
with kill(pid, 0); PARDES_9P and PARDES_PANE answer how to reach it; the flag
is gone. The posted-9P registry also self-heals now -- a session that aborts
cannot unlink its own socket, so posting sweeps entries whose target refuses
a connection, symlinks only and on a definite ECONNREFUSED only.

Elsewhere: tty scrolling is sticky-bottom, following new output only from
the last row, with typing and entering raw mode snapping back to live; the
boot layouts are a Boot enum instead of a chain of ifs, and the bare tty
startup (Boot.tty, which main.zig names) opens an empty text pane under the
shell while tests keep Boot.tty_shell; builtins announce themselves on the
message row under a Verbose setting that is on by default; Config prints
each setting the way you would type it back, so WindowOpacity 70 rather than
"WindowOpacity: 70%"; LocationsConfig opens its window only when called bare;
every tagline puts the word that closes the thing last, and a column now
outlives its panes -- closing the last one leaves an empty pane, and only
Delcol, newly on the column tagline, takes the column away.
