A flow's inputs are the messages it takes from outside — a dashboard control,
a run, the API — and its outputs are what a batch run reports. Both existed in
the document and in the engine, and neither had any UI: the values looked
hard-coded on the canvas and the Run button always used the declared defaults.
The canvas now draws each as a labelled endpoint, the way it already draws a
dashboard tile or another flow, skipping an input something else already
accounts for. The flow panel edits them — mode, name, type, starting value,
and for a live flow the value it currently holds with a way to put a new one
in. Pressing Run on a batch flow asks for its parameters first.
