argus caught it and reproduced it: a users entry carrying only a name
has no credential, so CONNECT {"user":"auth"} is accepted with no
password. The name is a literal in this module, so on the shared netns
that identity was walk-in-able from every agent container -- the same
hole the module exists to close, moved rather than closed.
An nkey rather than a password: only the public half appears in config,
the seed reaches the responder alone, so a hive with no responder has
nobody who can authenticate as it. Asserted at eval, because the
rendered config is valid and the server starts either way.
