Same reasoning as the message path a commit ago, and the same objection
to leaving it out: a command is something somebody asked the session to
do, and answering "its process has exited" hands back the work of
starting one. `/compact` on a stopped session is the case that shows it
-- what is being asked for is exactly what a stopped session needs
before it is useful again.
`POST /sessions/{id}/command` and `/compact` now go through
`SessionManager::run_command`. A rename is deliberately not one of them:
it is persisted and listed whether or not a process ever hears about it,
so starting a CLI to tell it a name would be spending a resume on
nothing. It stays a forward to a process that happens to be there.
A command needs one thing a message did not. `Commands::submit` refuses
on `Exited`, and a driver that has just started a process announces
`Idle` through the sink rather than writing it -- so a command judged
against the session's own status would be refused by the word the start
had just replaced, in a window narrow enough that only a test reliably
hits it. `start_if_exited` returning `Exited` is what says a process was
started, so the status the command is judged against comes from there
rather than from a re-read the pump may not have caught up with. The
test fails without it.
`LiveSession::compact` went with this: `/compact` the route and
"/compact" the typed command were two ways to the same command, and now
there is one.
Verified over the API against a stand-in CLI: with the session reporting
`exited`, both `/clear` and `POST /compact` started the process and were
delivered -- transcript order `idle`, `commandSent`, `running`, `idle`,
with no "this session's process has exited" anywhere.
