/// allocate the next non-zero id from `counter`, skipping any
/// value that `is_live` reports as still in use. C libca assigns IO
/// identifiers through owned tables (`ioTable.idAssignAdd` in
/// `libca/cac.cpp::writeNotifyRequest()` / `readNotifyRequest()`) and
/// channels through the CA context channel table; this is the Rust
/// equivalent — the owning registry supplies `is_live` so a counter
/// that wraps through 2^32 (≈11.9 h at 100k ops/s) cannot reissue an
/// id whose operation is still pending and wake the wrong waiter. `0`
/// is always skipped because several CA paths treat it as the "no IO"
/// sentinel.
