sl0ppty: a reply is never a request
`hello` was answered with the verb `hello`. Any pane that echoes what it is sent -- `cat`, `tee`, a shell with echo on, a REPL waiting for a line -- therefore answered the answer, and the session answered that. Measured before the fix: a pane running `tee` was sent 4,303,832 bytes and 165,532 hellos in a second and a half. Afterwards, 32 bytes and one. The fix is the rule rather than the instance: every message the session sends *to* a program ends its verb in `-reply`, no request verb may, and `on_osc5577` drops one on sight instead of relying on no handler happening to exist. So this cannot come back when the next verb gets an answer -- which is the commit after this one, and how I found it. `hello`'s reply is now `hello-reply;sl0ppty;1`. That is our own extension to the fork's protocol, not one of the five compatible verbs, so nothing written against sl0ppi notices. The fork's `click` goes to a program too and keeps its name: it predates the rule and is safe for the weaker reason that nothing answers a click. The suite was hiding this. `emit()` builds its pane out of `cat -v`, so the existing `hello` test had a pane trading megabytes with the session while it asserted -- and passed, because the assertion was `in`, and the first reply was in there along with all the rest. It now counts. Carries `pane_touch`, two lines, unused until the next commit: a pane whose shaders changed has to be repainted, and nothing about its cells changed to say so.
