Command kinds
The 21 command kinds daemons run, with lane, safety flags, timeout and payload.
Commands reach a node over its gateway session, one lane per kind. Retry-safe kinds are re-run after a crash between accept and completion; self-terminating ones end the agent (a reboot, a kexec, an upgrade) and complete when it rejoins; attested results are node-signed and verified before any transition; destructive ones must be signed.
