establishment: the mechanics — reply capabilities, helloExchange, lineage routing

P0 of docs/establishment-planes-plan.md; no behavior changes yet, nothing
sets the new flag or sends a hello capability.

- service.run gains a reply-capability out-slot (replyWithCapability), the
  registry idiom init already uses, lifted into the harness; null stays the
  untouched common path. Subscribers gains claimArrival() so a provider
  handler can keep a turn capability through the same flag the reserved
  subscribe uses.
- Hello wire struct: the padding byte becomes wants_channel — old callers
  wire-compatibly say 0, and the manager nominates a reply capability ONLY
  when asked, because a capability sent to a caller that never reads one is
  a leaked slot in that caller's table.
- driver.helloExchange: one handshake can hand a serving endpoint up and
  receive the device's provider channel down (usb-storage will need both at
  once). No channel in the reply is retryable, never a verdict.
- The manager stores each instance's serving endpoint on its Driver entry,
  routes consumer hellos by lineage (child -> reporter -> endpoint), replaces
  on re-hello, and closes the stale handle on death - the 32-slot table is
  the bound that makes forgetting this boot-fatal.
