debug: refuse to read a mechanism out of loop checkpoints
Run against scan 450, the trace reported a flyback contaminating every
line. It is wrong, and the file says why: samy is recorded three times
per line, at 198.8163 / 198.8651 / 198.9238, and those are the same
three positions in line 0, line 20 and line 43. They sit in the bottom
47% of the range and run backwards. They are scan-loop checkpoints taken
after the burst and during the return -- the traverse itself is never
sampled. Describing the return move as if it were the line is the wrong
answer delivered confidently, which is worse than no answer.

Two guards. Per line, if the samples never advance along the commanded
direction, say so and name no mechanism. Globally, report what fraction
of the commanded travel the readback covers and how much of it runs the
right way, and stop before the span, stall and step-size numbers if the
answer is none -- those describe the loop, not the stage.

Repetition across lines is deliberately not the test. A healthy scan
repeats too, since every line does the same thing; an earlier version
tested for that and flagged all four synthetic controls.

Also rank the leading channel by range over counting noise rather than
range over level. On scan 450 the old score picked mca8, which sits at
2 counts and is pure Poisson, over mca6, which is the diode that formed
the image and carries the artefact.
