//! `RealiseClosure`: download the closure the swarm built for an agent from
//! the swarm's binary cache into the store, without ever building.
//!
//! What this accepts is decided by root-owned sources alone: the cache's
//! address is the host's configuration, handed to the unit in
//! [`CACHE_URL_ENV`], and the cache's public key and the pull token's netrc are
//! files a root unit keeps in [`ROOT_FACTS_DIR`]. Nothing in the request, and
//! nothing hive-c0re (unprivileged) writes, chooses a cache or a key. They go to
//! nix's daemon as per-call settings, which the daemon applies for a trusted
//! client such as this one (root), so the host's nix configuration is untouched.
