::  section 4cA, filesystem logic
::
::  This core contains the main logic of clay.  Besides `++ze`, this directly
::  contains the logic for commiting new revisions (local urbits), managing
::  and notifying subscribers (reactivity), and pulling and validating content
::  (remote urbits).
::
::  The state includes:
::
::  --  local urbit `our`
::  --  current time `now`
::  --  current duct `hen`
::  --  scry handler `ski`
::  --  all vane state `++raft` (rarely used, except for the object store)
::  --  target urbit `her`
::  --  target desk `syd`
::
::  For local desks, `our` == `her` is one of the urbits on our pier.  For
::  foreign desks, `her` is the urbit the desk is on and `our` is the local
::  urbit that's managing the relationship with the foreign urbit.  Don't mix
::  up those two, or there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
::
::  While setting up `++de`, we check if `our` == `her`. If so, we get
::  the desk information from `dos.rom`.  Otherwise, we get the rung from
::  `hoy` and get the desk information from `rus` in there.  In either case,
::  we normalize the desk information to a `++rede`, which is all the
::  desk-specific data that we utilize in `++de`.  Because it's effectively
::  a part of the `++de` state, let's look at what we've got:
::
::  --  `lim` is the most recent date we're confident we have all the
::      information for.  For local desks, this is always `now`.  For foreign
::      desks, this is the last time we got a full update from the foreign
::      urbit.
::  --  `ref` is a possible request manager.  For local desks, this is null.
::      For foreign desks, this keeps track of all pending foreign requests
::      plus a cache of the responses to previous requests.
::  --  `qyx` is the set of subscriptions, with listening ducts. These
::      subscriptions exist only until they've been filled.
::  --  `dom` is the actual state of the filetree.  Since this is used almost
::      exclusively in `++ze`, we describe it there.

  ::
  ::  This core has no additional state, and the distinction exists purely for
  ::  documentation.  The overarching theme is that `++de` directly contains
  ::  logic for metadata about the desk, while `++ze` is composed primarily
  ::  of helper functions for manipulating the desk state (`++dome`) itself.
  ::  Functions include:
  ::
  ::  --  converting between cases, commit hashes, commits, content hashes,
  ::      and content
  ::  --  creating commits and content and adding them to the tree
  ::  --  finding which data needs to be sent over the network to keep the
  ::      other urbit up-to-date
  ::  --  reading from the file tree through different `++care` options
  ::  --  the `++me` core for merging.
  ::
  ::  The dome is composed of the following:
  ::
  ::  --  `ank` is the ankh, which is the file data itself.  An ankh is both
  ::      a possible file and a possible directory.  An ankh has both:
  ::      --  `fil`, a possible file, stored as both a cage and its hash
  ::      --  `dir`, a map of @ta to more ankhs.
  ::  --  `let` is the number of the most recent revision.
  ::  --  `hit` is a map of revision numbers to commit hashes.
  ::  --  `lab` is a map of labels to revision numbers.
