remake: a strict remake of a strict swarm isn't followed
Review 3, R3: 1186 kept honest nodes from proposing or voting for a strict remake of a swarm strict already, but a majority of members, each with keys of its own, could still commit one, and switch and catchup followed it without asking what kind of remake made the epoch: the registry, policy and bans of a strict swarm changing by a member majority, the honest minority following. A node now refuses to switch to such an epoch (its document's policy strict, the remake's kind strict), and catchup refuses to rejoin one whose chain of epochs holds a strict remake after the swarm was strict (as the old document is, or once a remake since made it so). access.md says so.
