Changes in this release

• connector-jcode: keep a seat name launchable after the seat is stopped or reaped.

  The short socket alias at /tmp/jc-<hash>/home is derived from the seat home, so one seat name
  reuses one path for the life of the machine. A launch handed that path back on teardown while a
  Jcode server the dead lifecycle left running was still using it as its JCODE_HOME, that server
  re-created the path as a real directory, and refusing a non-symlink there retired the name for
  good: every later launch of it failed before Jcode started, reporting (unknown) and pointing at a
  private log the failure had never reached.

  The alias is now reclaimed rather than refused. Each launch also records its identity nonce and its
  host process in the private home, and the seat's next launch stops the Jcode tree that record names
  once the recorded host is provably gone, so a lifecycle killed without its teardown no longer holds
  the seat's runtime directory for five minutes. A tree whose connector is still alive is left to
  Jcode's own runtime-directory lock. Failures preparing that private state now report a
  private_state code instead of unknown.
