Compare the remaining child-registration and reaping experiment with
PR #484, then identify the next review item without changing code.
The next item is the late-child admission race. A spawn can pass
`ActorNursery.start_actor()`'s early cancellation check, then be absent
from `ActorNursery.cancel()`'s child snapshot and register afterward.
The existing reap-request latch releases its monitor but does not send
runtime cancellation, so the monitor can wait forever for a still-live
process.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/runtime/_supervise.py`
`ActorNursery._register_child()` publishes the child, installs its reap
events, and samples `ActorNursery._cancel_called` without a checkpoint.
The two scheduler orderings are then complete: registration first puts
the child in the cancel snapshot, while cancellation first makes the
backend abort the late registration.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/spawn/_mp.py`
The multiprocessing backend registers immediately before `proc.start()`
and refuses to start a process already owned by nursery cancellation.
There is no Trio checkpoint between registration and process startup.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tractor/spawn/_trio.py`
The Trio backend registers immediately after `open_process()` and kills
the newly opened process if cancellation won the registration race. Its
stale unused `get_runtime_vars` import is removed so the touched module
remains lint-clean.
> `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD -- tests/test_to_actor.py`
Deterministic regressions prove late registration observes cancellation
and that the MP backend never starts a process after cancellation owns
its registration.
PR #484 retains the affected generic nursery and spawn-backend paths and
does not close this race. Keep this fix in PR #481 as its own commit;
review bounded post-`CancelAck` reaping separately.
