Remember each sender's secret beside the node's key: no X25519 at restart
A listener lets a quiet sender's secret go with its active state, so a
node started again made one X25519 for every sender that came back (169
us on this Pi, most of a wake's CPU): asymmetric work in proportion to the
links, which design 011 counts as a reason to design again. The secret is
now remembered in a file beside the key (KEY.links, 0600, begun again for
another node's key): a place of 64 bytes a sender in the order allowed,
mapped, so a sender at rest takes no memory for it. A place is the first
28 bytes of the sender's key, a check (FNV-1a of the key and the secret)
and the secret, written secret first and key last; a place whose check
fails is made again. The UDP link checks see a receiver started again
make no X25519.
