What this is

A correction. Two shared cases for a stage that waits for people, merged in #28, were wrong, and so was PACT's reference workflow runtime. The schema says of answered-by:: "how many of asked-of: must answer". The reference took one answer whatever that line said, and the second case delivered one answer "from" two people, which no runtime could check. Bud Agent Flow, whose engine asks each listed person, refused to build to the cases and was right.

What a runtime must match now

• Each entry of asked-of: is one answerer: a person, or a team or channel one of whose members answers for it.
• With everyone (or enough-of-them), all are asked at once and each answers separately. One no is a no at once.
• An answer that does not count is refused and recorded, changes nothing, and the wait stays open: a second, different answer from somebody who has answered, or one answer naming several people (refused in a workflow case's expect).
• The same answer handed in again is a resend. It counts once and nothing is refused.
• The stage's fields are those of the answer that settled the wait: the first no, or the answer that made it enough.
• steps.<stage>.answered-by lists who answered, in the order their answers arrived.
• In a case, shown has one entry for each entry of asked-of: that was asked.

Five cases replace the two: 31 workflow cases, 55 cases of replayed runs.

Also

The replay kit ran a case's first leg on the wall clock and its resumes on the case's own clock. It starts at 0 now. No expected result changed.

How it was tested

• scripts/test-all.sh on this commit: 4,978 tests, 0 failures.
• mkdocs build --strict: clean.
• Pinned digests regenerated for the one tree that changed (triaged-defects); the other nine are as they were.
