cmd/moveprobe: the README's Strings section covers the JSON report
Lists the report's fields and every value the app authors in it: region home, region_from's two values, the mode names, the row kinds, the object key and body templates, and the object errors, each with when it appears. For Paul's copy review with the rest of the README. Review fix round 2, item 2.

| +- The JSON report (200). Its fields are `host`, `region`, `region_from`, |
| + `mode`, `boot_id`, `rows` (each with `kind`, `region`, `count`, |
| + `min_seq`, `max_seq`), `fired` (each with `kind`, `name`, `due_at`, |
| + `count`), `file_key_sha256`, `platform_key_sha256`, `object` (with |

| +The values the app writes into the report itself: |
| + |
| +- `region`: the value of `CARLOS_REGION`, or `home` when the box has no |
| + region. |
| +- `region_from`: `CARLOS_REGION` when the variable is set, and |
| + `unset, treated as home` when it is not. |
| +- `mode`: `normal`, or `after-write` when the failure switch names this |
| + region with `,after-write`. Before-write mode sends no report. |
| +- `kind` in `rows`: `bg` for the background loop, `worker` for the |
| + worker, `tick` and `once` for timer fires. `kind` in `fired`: `tick` or |
| + `once`. |
| +- `object.key`: `probe/<boot id>.txt`, the object this boot wrote. |
| +- `object.body`: the object's contents as read back. The app writes |
| + `moveprobe boot <boot id> host <host> region <region> at <time>`, |
| + followed by a new line, where the time is UTC in RFC 3339 form. |
| +- `object.error`: `store: <names> not set` when the store variables are |
| + missing, or `get <key>: <error>` when the object cannot be read back. |
| +- `worker_last_error`: the database's own error text for the worker's |
| + latest failed write. The app adds no words of its own. |
