3mesh-rt's node loop on CPU threads: claim the next published ticket (E_SEQ acquire, then a CAS on P_RING_HEAD), run `init` (OP_INIT) or `task`, complete it (P_RESULTS, P_MARKS release, P_DONE, the node record, a trace record), heartbeat while idle with a backoff that spins first and sleeps longer the longer it waits, and halt at P_SHUTDOWN. `mesh_worker_run_nodes` runs a slot's PT_NODES nodes, a thread each.
