ames: don't overwrite lane if already direct
This is why basically all packets are going through the galaxies right
now.  Most of the time, the flow right now is:

* talking to ~dopzod but don't know where it is, so ask ~zod to forward,
  which it does

* ~dopzod responds both directly (on the origin lane) and through ~zod

* (if NAT, the direct response doesn't get back, but the one through
  ~zod does. Then you respond directly to ~dopzod because their lane
  piggybacked on the response. ~dopzod responds both directly and
  through ~zod, and the story picks up the same as if you weren't behind a
  NAT)

* now you have a direct lane to ~dopzod, so all is well.

* now the duplicate response from ~dopzod through ~zod comes in (takes a
  little longer because it's bouncing off ~zod), resetting your lane to
  "provisional"

* since your lane is provisional, you send your next packet both
  directly and through ~zod

* GOTO 2

This change says "if I already have a direct lane, don't overwrite it
with a provisional one". This way, the only way the direct lane can be
overwritten is if they stop responding on it (cleared on "not
responding; still trying").

I also added |- to +send-blob to make |ames-verb %rot less confusing.
