A training loop has numbers worth keeping thousands of steps before it has a
result. Node code now imports fluksio and calls log_metric/progress, which
sends a line back without ending the call; the engine writes those to
run_metric in batches from the run's own driver rather than folding them off
the event bus, which drops what it cannot keep up with.
Two things fall out. Each event resets the worker deadline, so a node's
timeout measures silence rather than duration — which is what lets a two-hour
training keep a liveness contract instead of racing it. And the worker pool's
_running is now keyed by (run, node), so cancelling one config of a sweep
kills that training and leaves the rest alone.
Fixes a latent framing bug: read_line returned whatever a read had taken,
which was fine while a worker only ever sent one line per request and
unparseable as soon as it sent several. It now keeps the remainder.

The worker script is handed to the interpreter by path, so app/flow was
sys.path[0] for every node: `import queue` got the engine's. It now drops
its own directory before anything else imports, and runs with the
deployment's credentials scrubbed out of its environment.
Also: reload builds off the event loop, the pool wakes what is blocked on
it when it stops, a refused metrics flush is kept for the next one rather
than dropped, and the cascade events are paired through failures.

User code no longer execs in the engine. A pool of persistent worker
subprocesses speaks one JSON object per line; the controller installs a
proxy as the node's function, so every execution path funnels through it
and the pipeline is untouched. A crash costs one subprocess, a per-node
timeout is a kill, and cancelling from the canvas is that same kill.
The workers run a venv of the user's own on the data volume, filled from
a pip manifest versioned beside the flows. Applying it retires the
workers and rebuilds, so a package lands without restarting the engine.
