Subject: feat(client): the desktop application keeps M and every node identity
 in its main process

keyring.js derives, opens, mints, seals, signs and agrees there; the page gets
public keys and a handle. Argon2 comes from the page's own WebAssembly build
(Electron's crypto has none). Without OS key storage the page keeps its keys as
a browser does. A node's bundle is settled after connecting, re-sealed when the
key changed.
