//! What:
//!  Where the landing's own syncs wait: not on the path the person waits on, unless the landing publishes nothing.
//! Why:
//!  The owner's rule for the commit protocol, 2026-11-03: "Force at leaving, else background": no forced write while the person
//!  waits, so a power cut loses that attempt exactly as it does with native Git (staged changes and files are intact, the
//!  commit is run again), and whatever the command already promised when it left (an error, a withdrawal, a hand-over) was
//!  forced to disk first. A landing that publishes a commit therefore only queues the syncs of its records (the intent, the
//!  lock marker, the completion record, the done mark and the directory syncs); one background thread makes them in batches,
//!  each batch overlapped. A landing that publishes nothing syncs what it wrote before it returns. Git's own object, reference
//!  and index writes follow `core.fsync` as they do for native Git: the in-process index writer flushes only when
//!  `core.fsync` names the index (`ConfigSnapshot::hardens_index`).
//!  Nothing here changes what a killed process leaves: the page cache keeps every write whether or not it was synced.
//!
//! In TS you'd write (pseudocode):
//! ```ts
//! const landing = beginDeferral({ hardensIndex });
//! // ... flushFile(file, 'intent-file') queues; flushDir(dir, 'intent-dir') queues ...
//! landing.settle(published); // true: hand the queue to the background thread; false: sync it now
//! ```
