//! The admin HTTP listener.
//!
//! One `std.http.Server` per connection over the shared `listener.Core` accept
//! loop (milestone-18 ruling 1): a listener task in the app's group, an inner
//! `Io.Group` of connection tasks, and a keep-alive loop per connection that
//! ends on `error.HttpConnectionClosing`. The shape is
//! lib/std/Build/WebServer.zig:152-185; the slot pool and the shutdown split
//! come from the core, which documents both.
//!
//! Connection slots are fixed and pre-allocated, and each one owns every buffer
//! a request needs, so serving allocates only what a handler asks the
//! per-request arena for. Over capacity the listener answers 503 and closes
//! (ruling 7) rather than queueing: refusing is honest, a queue would hide it.
//!
//! There is no per-request timeout this milestone. The port is LAN-facing and
//! behind the operator's own network; the cancel path, not a timer, is what
//! bounds shutdown. A slow client costs one of 64 slots and nothing else.
