-/**
- * @file What has been made of one output, what is being made right now, and by
- * whom.
- *
- * One map per set of output parameters — never per session, never per viewer.
- * Every segment number is in exactly one of three states:
- *
- * 1. **ready** — a file that is closed and can be served to anybody;
- * 2. **being made** — claimed by a named live run, which has been given that
- *    stretch and is working forward through it;
- * 3. **free** — nobody has made it and nobody is making it.
- *
- * Two questions are asked of it constantly and both have to be cheap, because
- * one of them is on the path that answers a viewer:
- *
- * 1. is segment N ready — a set lookup;
- * 2. where is the first gap at or after N — a walk over numbers, never over the
- *    disk. The walk it replaces listed every run directory of a session on the
- *    thread carrying the data channel, 1350 files for a 90-minute film, on
- *    every segment request.
- *
- * **READINESS IS A PROJECTION, NEVER A MEMORY.** What is ready is a fact of the
- * disk, and the disk has one owner — the segment store. This map does not
- * remember what it was once told: {@link CoverageMap#setReady} REPLACES the
- * whole picture, so every number it calls ready was placed there by that one
- * authority, whole, immediately before the answer was used.
- *
- * It used to accumulate. `markReadyAll` added and nothing ever took away — the
- * word for taking away existed and was called from no line of the product — so
- * a number stayed ready for the life of the process after its file had been
- * discarded, dropped for room, or overwritten by a run restarting on it. Field
- * 2026-09-07: this map said 482 of 482 segments were made while the directory
- * held nothing a header could be lifted out of; the plan therefore scored every
- * arrangement as equally perfect, took the one encoder away as unnecessary — its
- * own words, "the film is no worse off without it" — and placed none for the
- * rest of the session. Two sessions in a row ended with the viewer looking at an
- * error card, and the second one never received a single byte.
- *
- * The remedy is not a way to un-mark. A second owner that is kept in step can
- * fall out of step again; a projection cannot.
- *
- * **Claims are intervals, not heads.** A run says which stretch it was given,
- * so two runs on one output cannot be sent to the same numbers: the gap finder
- * skips what another run will reach. A run that only announced its current
- * position would leave the question "will anybody make #400" unanswerable
- * without guessing at its speed.
- *
- * **Nothing here touches a disk, a process or a clock**, so every decision it
- * makes can be exercised with numbers alone.
