Let a device leave a network, and start over
Joining was one command and leaving was nothing at all: a network went into `state.sqlite` on the first `up` and stayed there, so a mistyped secret left a second network beside the working one with no way to remove it but editing the database by hand. `tsunagi network` lists what this device belongs to. `tsunagi network leave <id>` publishes a signed release first — while the agent is running and its sessions are up — and only then deactivates the network and removes it. The order is the whole point: signed state has no expiry, so the tombstone is the only thing that ever frees the address and the name for the others, and after the network is gone there is nothing left here to sign one with. Peers pass it on, so a member that was away hears it from them rather than from an agent that has already left. With no agent running nothing can sign or send, and the command says so instead of quietly succeeding: `--offline` drops the network locally and says plainly that the others keep the old claim. The outcome always distinguishes "published to nobody" from "not published at all", because they leave the network in different states. A network is named by its id, and a unique prefix will do. The name is refused on purpose: two networks can share one — that is exactly the situation this command exists for — and picking between them for the user is how the wrong one gets left. The author's version counter deliberately survives. Rejoining the same network with the same key must continue above the release, or every replica that holds the release would treat the new claim as stale and the returning member would be invisible for good. The protocol key does not survive: rejoining is joining, not resuming, and coming back with a key the network was told to let go claims an identity nobody holds any more. Plugins learn about it through a new `on_network_forgotten`, which is about what outlives a session rather than what a deactivation tears down. A released member also drops out of the roster `status` prints. The tombstone stays in the record set — a replica that never heard of it would otherwise reinstate the old claim — but listing an author that gave everything up as a member made leaving look like a peer that had broken. `tsunagi wipe` is the other half: it empties both directories, so the device identity, every network, every signed record and everything a protocol kept beside them go at once and the next start is a stranger. It refuses while an agent holds the directory, and refuses a directory with no `state.sqlite` in it, so a mistyped `--state-dir` cannot take somebody's documents with it. Without `--yes` it only prints what it would remove and what membership would be lost. It is not a goodbye and says so: leaving the networks first is what frees their addresses. The local control protocol is 8 — the socket carries a `Leave` request now, since only the running agent can publish the release. Exercised end to end against real agents: leaving by prefix released the address to a connected peer, leaving by name was refused, `--offline` was refused until asked for explicitly, wipe was refused while the agent ran, and the directory afterwards had no identity in it.
