dashboard: a subscribed node's message written out, read from it when shown
A subscribed node's messages come without being written out (their stream leaves the text out: up to 8 KiB each, 500 at a time), so the figures box said only when, both ends, type and size of one. Now the node answers for one message by its number, `GET /admin/dashboard/messages/own/{seq}` (`{"text": …}`, `404` once it isn't kept), which pages of other origins may call as they do its streams (`cors::open`), and the page reads it when the message is shown, with its narrow token, and keeps it on the message. Where it can't be read, the box says why.
