Keep the name placeholder out of the kernel entirely

A name input declares where a placeholder's name is wired and nothing
more. The name is spent resolving the layout when the graph compiles, so
the kernel neither declares it nor is passed it; the return type's
`Named<X, V>` is the only tie between the write slot and the folded name.

The wire is untouched: the input keeps its declared position and crosses
as constant text, so a document's input order is unchanged. The
placeholder stays a concrete token, so it adds no generic for the node
to carry and none to go unconstrained.
