The wire-authoritative half of the status band (Q#S1): an additive
InstanceMessage::StatusFacts { buffer_id, name, modified,
diag_errors, diag_warnings }, emitted by the semantic producer on
change (cached-compare). Counts freeze at their last value while
the diag store is stale — positions go wrong mid-edit but counts
merely lag, and flickering to zero per keystroke would be worse.
The daemon's write loop keeps the variant off wires negotiated
< 8, the DispatchIdle gate shape; SUPPORTED grows to [6, 7, 8].
GPU side: the band's left shows name + modified dot, the right
gains severity-colored E:n/W:n ahead of the local L:C/scroll
readout (rich-text spans, change-detected per side).
