The old name argued that the extension should say how to read the
file. The argument lost to a collision: zellij speaks the same KDL
syntax under that same extension with a different schema, and to
anyone arriving from there .kdl said *whose* file it is -- naming the
wrong owner is worse than not naming the parser. So a layout is
x.layout, a project's is slosh.layout, the name says what the file is
and --check says how it was read. (It is still KDL underneath; point
your editor's highlighting at *.layout.)

Nobody's checked-in workspace vanishes on upgrade: the project scan
still finds slosh.layout.kdl, never writes it, and where both
spellings exist the new one wins, because two files disagreeing needs
one answer. The unparseable-file heuristic in --check learned the new
suffix -- it matched '.layout.' with a trailing dot, which the new
name no longer has.

The webdemo overlay moves with it (demo.layout), rebuilt and
boot-checked.
