serve: refuse a check-in's own singleton claim on a protected name; warm the image only after a push

A self-targeted +sym-B is not how a branch is joined, but nothing legitimate mints one on a protected name. maintain now derives the fast-read image only when the log grew, so a pull-heavy fronted server does not pay an image load per connection. Pins that a merge with a protected secondary parent stays on its primary's branch. Issue #151. closed check-in: 13760d0c92 user: dmestas tags: serve-protected-branches

serve: refuse membership changes to protected branches, per request, from a trusted front

A front that authenticates every push knows who is pushing; the store knows which branch a pushed check-in resolves to. The front sends only the rule -- X-Zit-Protect, a glob list -- and zit serve --fronted refuses the whole round when a check-in would join one of those branches or a tag would move a held check-in in or out of one. Same error card as a content-policy refusal, so a stock fossil client reads it.

Without --fronted the header is ignored and the server is unchanged. Nothing new on the wire or in the repository. Resolution is crosslink's own, through the fast-read image, which maintain keeps warm between connections. A parent not yet held is admitted: it is judged on arrival. Resolver faults fail closed.
