fix(v4.0.0): step 6e review round 2 -- only the message looked at is taken, moved or dropped; the kernel's port has no queue in a fabric; an answer nobody awaits is not a loss

- Engine: a wire keeps whether the message at its mark is the one last
  looked at; a node's take, move and drop of any other answer 3 and write
  nothing (MESH.md 7d.3).  A wire cut and made again between a look and a
  take no longer has a NACK done as text, or 256 cells written where one
  was looked for.
- Engine: v4_fabric_wire_kernel wires a kernel to a port with no queues;
  a message for it is refused at once, error 18, on a mesh as on the
  products.
- The result of a drop is looked at; a take that does not take has the
  message dropped, or gone past: nothing goes round.
- An answer nobody waits for is let go uncounted; (LOST) counts what should
  have been delivered or acted on and was not.  The flood's account is
  exact.
- Error 18 from under a word that was printing empties the data stack, as
  a fault does: that word's own values are not left there.
- Tests: the take and drop windows cut at every step, with and without
  another message put; a refusal owed to a stuck node whose wire is full.
