feat(v4.0.0): POST is the kernel's -- the boot feeds the cases, and nothing of the harness is on the node

Browse Source

The boot runs POST with the runner (v4/system/post.c) after the capsules:
it feeds the 538 cases to the node and judges them from outside.  A
case's printing no longer reaches the console.  What the cases define
stays in the dictionary, as in v3; the system is sealed after POST and
the boot prints PARITY:V4_SYSTEM word_count=N dict_hash=..., as v3 prints
its parity after POST.

Gone: capsules/v4/post79.4th and its blocks 7000 up; the harness words;
(CATCH) and (EMIT-HOOK), with what EMIT and the prompt loop did for them.

The generator runs v3 on the lines as the kernel sends them, without the
capsule's "T| ".  One expected result follows from that: >IN.initial
prints 6, not 9.

make -C v4 test, sanitize and hosted-check pass; amd64, aarch64 and
riscv64 boot, POST 538 of 538, word_count=411, dict_hash
0x6fb1d09418b189ee on all six: logs/20261007-105118, -105335, -105651.
T{ is unknown at the prompt; RS1 prints 42 42 before and after COLD.  A
scratch build with one expectation changed names the case and ends
PARITY:FAIL, POST: FAILED.
