A sync or install no longer reverts a type's compile state

A NodeType's compile state — whether it built, which assembly it built, which sources it was built from — belongs to the mesh that ran the compile. Everything else about the type (its configuration, its sources, its description) belongs to whoever authors it: a git repository, a plugin package, or you.

Until now a repository import, a plugin install or an instance sync could carry its own older copy of that compile state along with a genuine edit, and the older copy won. A type that had just been rebuilt would appear to fall back to its previous state, sometimes pointing at a release that no longer existed, and the only way out was to compile it again by hand. A copy that claimed success for a build that was months old was worse: the type looked healthy right up until something actually needed the assembly.

Writers no longer decide this. Whatever the mesh last recorded for a type is what the type keeps, and an authored change lands beside it. Re-importing a repository that has not changed anything now also leaves such types completely untouched, so they stop being flagged as locally edited when nobody edited them.
