An action names one row of a ludic.base Table<T> by its handle, in a field marked @Target, and
`reducer Deer in Herd.deer on Spook(r: mut Row<Deer>, n: Noise, a: Spook)` runs once, for that row
alone (the table may sit down a path, S.w.tab). The drain resolves the handle (tb_row) and hands the
reducer a Row<T> - new in ludic.base: tb, row, h, rec - that the queue keeps, one per row reducer,
filled in place, so a targeted action allocates nothing; a stale handle runs nothing, and
LUDIC_ACTIONS_LOG=1 prints a line for it (@alloc_ok). Row reducers order among an action's by their
state's name, then the table's path.
Checked at compile time (actions_rows.ludic): the row reaches r.rec and r.h only - r.tb / r.row
refused, the view never assigned, stored, copied or handed on except to a @RowVerb (a function of
the record's own module taking Row<T> first; any other function taking a row is refused); a field
marked @Column (a table column mirrors it) is not written through r.rec; only the module owning the
state declares a row reducer; one @Target, an int, per action; the states between the row and the
action are read. `mut` is allowed on a Row<T> parameter.
ludic schema's code section gains row_reducers (record, table, state, action, target, predicted,
net, module, at) and row_verbs (name, record, module, at), and every action its target; row
reducers are left out of `reducers`. ludic deps and ludic-lsp name a row reducer
`reducer Deer in Herd.deer on Spook`. vocab: @Target, @Column, @RowVerb; docs/language pages;
LANGUAGE.md "A reducer on a row"; examples actions/rows and ten rejects; test.ludic feat, reject and
schema cases (not run); changes/row-reducers.md. Reseeded; bootstrap-cfree fixpoint holds (307497
lines); Maroon Lake's `ludic build --check` is clean against this tree.

Maroon Lake: 149 parameters became read-only. What stays mut is a real write - in the packages mostly a
lazy start inside a question (things_all, gear__ensure), which is what to take out next.

ludic.base's Queue<T> carries a QueueTag (its name and pending count): queue_new(name), q_push(q, v),
q_drain(q), q_clear(q) take no BaseState, and core_undrained(tags) names the given queues still holding
facts. A reducer on a package's state can now call that package's verbs (wallet_earn(wallet_st, n)).
ludic migrate state --prune (ludicc --migrate-prune) takes out each state parameter a function no
longer uses, nor anything it calls, and the argument that fills it - including an argument for a
parameter the callee has dropped, which is taken out before the call is checked, so a generic's T is
told by the argument that says it. A reducer keeps its state. --dry-run now counts the edits it would
make. Every package was moved with it: 608 base_st parameters and their arguments, 1889 edits.

- component Name (a: mut A, b: B) { ... }: every getter, default, function and event takes the
header's states before the instance; a member's call to another passes them on; the glue is
supplied them; the template never sees them; a read-only one is read-only in every member
- ludic migrate state: a component's members' needs go into its header (added to an existing one,
mut added where now changed); a field read or a member call inside a component is the compiler's,
so nothing is written inside a name and no ', )' is left; an entry point that declares states
already gets the rest after them
- a program's module named like a package gets <Name>AppState; a program's own file its own state;
a friend module's files go by directory; a package's settable var stays state
- it writes only under the programs and directories given (and runtime/ with --runtime), and
refuses the whole run naming any other file that would have to change
- a name a package already moved into its state is rewritten through it; a read of the runtime's
var through the runtime function that answers it (gl_w: gl_width())
- a state's instance supplied by the runtime is not a uses reference
- tests: state/component, rejected/state_component_ro, rendering/ui_render3d, migrate component
and foreign cases
