swarm-controller: render, lock and commit internal/meta

A new update_meta node renders internal/meta's flake.nix with
hive-meta-flake, the renderer hive-c0re uses: hyperhive pinned to its
forge main, each custom agent a hive places pinned to its agent-configs
main, all over https, and the swarm-wide values from
SWARM_CONTROLLER_META_FLAKE (set by swarm-controller.nix from
services.hyperhive.swarm.*). The swarm builder locks it, and the
controller commits flake.nix and flake.lock in one commit and gives
every hive's forge account read on the repo. A render equal to the
committed flake.nix sends no lock and commits nothing.

It runs at start, when hyperhive's main moves, before the deploy of a
merged config PR and before the first deploy of a new agent; those
deploys now wait for it. agent_web_port moves into hive-meta-flake so
both callers compute the same port; hive-c0re re-exports it.

On deploy: internal/meta appears on the forge and follows every merge.
No hive builds from it yet.

+## Meta-flake lock
+
+The builder also answers `$SWARM.builder.lock-meta`. The request carries a
+rendered `flake.nix`. The builder writes it into a scratch directory, runs
+`nix flake lock` there with the same forge credential helper its builds use,
+answers with the `flake.lock` that `nix` wrote, and removes the directory. A
+lock doesn't wait for a build in progress and has ten minutes. The builder
+commits nothing.
+
+swarm-controller sends the request. It renders `internal/meta`'s `flake.nix`
+with the same renderer hive-c0re uses (`hive-meta-flake`). The render pins
+hyperhive to its forge `main`, and each custom agent that a hive places to its
+`agent-configs/<agent>` `main`, all over `https`. The controller commits
+`flake.nix` and the returned `flake.lock` to `internal/meta` in one commit, and
+gives each hive's forge account read on the repo. It re-renders when it
+starts, when hyperhive's `main` moves, before it deploys a merged config PR,
+and before the first deploy of a new agent. That deploy waits for the commit.
+A render equal to the committed `flake.nix` sends no lock.
