feat(engine): make a bulk close state what Rule 7 says must be stated

Browse source 
coord-done.sh was the third script that acts on pending messages and the only
one that did not learn the field. --all archives every pending message in one
call, including the ones whose sender declared it expects a reply - the exact
outcome Rule 7 exists to prevent, now reachable with no friction and no trace.

The behavior stays. The receiver keeps both terminal states by design (section
20), and a bulk close is legitimate; refusing would move a decision that belongs
to the operator into the script. What was wrong was the silence: Rule 7 requires
leaving a message unanswered to be STATED, and a command reporting only a total
made the thing that has to be stated invisible.

So --all now names the number it closed without a reply, and only then - a line
that always fires is one nobody reads. A named close stays quiet, because naming
a message is already deliberate, one message at a time.

coord-selftest 151 -> 156.
