Including these in pkg/arvo has caused many minor problems over the
years. We don't want to include them in releases, but this often meant
excluding them manually, which was error-prone.
Here, we move them out of /pkg/arvo/tests and into /tests. CI will have
to be updated to match, since we'll still want to include tests there.
As of version %5, dill uses a new wire format for its userspace
subscriptions. Its existing subscriptions (read: the one subscription
into %hood for the default session) was never updated to use this new
style.
We observed a bug on one ship, where it had both old-style and new-style
subscriptions into hood, resulting in output being rendered twice. How
exactly this happened remains as of yet unclear.
Here, we forcefully clean up the old-style subscription, and
(re)establish the equivalent new-style subscription. This will prevent
issues like this from reoccurring.

It's often useful to |merge a desk, but if you're still getting updates
from your sync source, you may get overwritten in the future. In this
case, you want to merge and clear the sync source. With this change,
you can do this with:
```
|install ~ship %desk, =once &
```
This reverts commit 31bb93846c, reversing
changes made to 7940dd442b.
Reverting because we can't upgrade jetted code without ensuring the jets
change in lockstep.
As discussed internally at the end of last year, we are discontinuing
Windows support for vere.
The tldr is that we presently don't have the resources to support
non-*nix systems at the level of quality we want to deliver. Notably
Windows is already very much a second-class citizen (#5822 and others).
Windows users may want to run Urbit through WSL instead.
As such, the Window build step should be removed from our CI.
See #6052. This is completely different from the +* used at the top
of doors, and has almost entirely been replaced by |$. The exception is
the use of the `%made` spec, not present in `|$`. I do not see an
obvious way to change `|$` to use `%made` since this `+*` parser uses
the name of the arm in the `%made` structure, unless we change the
AST of |$.
