An absent read of a name the census declares now serves that name's own
default rather than its value type's, which is the rule for a declared
name. The census stages it exactly as it fills any absent field, as the
declared default's bytes, so the read reuses the census's own mechanism
instead of a second one; the compiler takes them when the name folds and
`set_layout` installs them beside the offset.
A name the census does not declare keeps the value type's default, which
is that case's own rule. One name carries one value type, checked when
the name folds, so the row's value type and width agree with the read's.

The fold already holds the name and the read input's finished layout, so
the offset falls out there rather than at construction: `RecordLayout`
carries the resolved numbers and `set_layout` copies them into the read
slots. Constructors are untouched, and census-marker reads keep their
current installation.
A read meets the value type the name was written at, so a disagreement
between a read here and a write upstream is the same graph error as two
writes disagreeing; the one-name-one-type check now spans reads and
writes together. An absent attribute stays absent and the read serves
the forced default rather than reporting it.
`read_attribute` is the catalog's get half, typed and never `Option` at
the kernel boundary, with the name declared exactly as the write side
declares it.

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.

The record fixtures spell their metas and resolved layouts out in full,
so the name-from-input fields reach them as empty. `named_value!`'s
example moves to `ignore`: its `for T` arm implements a core-types trait
on the value type, which only core-types itself may do.

`Named<X>` in parameter position declares where a placeholder's name is
wired, and the macro gives that input constant text; `Attr<Named<X, V>>`
in the return writes under it. The kernel is handed the bare placeholder,
since the name is spent resolving the layout and a folded offset is all
the write needs, so the hot path matches a marker node's exactly.
A name-generic write names its value type through the wired generic,
which only an implementations row resolves, so those nodes emit their
layout meta per row rather than sharing one across rows.
`write_attribute` is the catalog's set half, restoring the identifier
master's documents carry with its input positions. Its name input is a
constant, so those documents resolve without migration, and the reset
marker that stood in for the missing node retires with it.
