The final excision of #477: with zero in-repo callers left (all
tests/examples/docs migrated to `to_actor.run()` et al) the
entire legacy one-shot machinery drops out,
- `runtime/_supervise.py`: `ActorNursery.run_in_actor()`, the
`._cancel_after_result_on_exit` portal-set and the
`_reap_ria_portals()` teardown-reaper (both its happy-path
block-exit call AND the error-path snapshot + 0.5s-bounded
collection) are deleted — one-shot result-waiting now lives
entirely in the caller's task via `to_actor.run()`, whose
enclosing cancel-scope bounds the wait by construction (the
correct-scoping fix for the unbounded-reap hang class; the
`d1fb4a1a` guard test now passes structurally).
- `runtime/_portal.py`: `Portal._submit_for_result()`,
`._expect_result_ctx`, `._final_result_msg/_pld`,
`.wait_for_result()` + the deprecated `.result()` alias are
gone — a `Portal` no longer has any "main result" notion.
NB `Context.wait_for_result()` is a different (very alive)
API and is untouched.
- `spawn/_spawn.py`: `exhaust_portal()` +
`cancel_on_completion()` (the reaper tasks) deleted; backend
comment sweeps in `_trio.py`/`_mp.py`.
- `_exceptions.py`: the `NoResult` sentinel dies with its lone
reader.
- `tests/test_ringbuf.py`: drop a daemon-portal `.result()`
call that was already a warn + `NoResult` no-op (the ctx-acm
exit does the real result-wait); unshadow the 2nd `sctx` as
`rctx`.
- comment/docstring x-ref sweeps: `msg/types.py`,
`_context.py`, `to_actor/`, `tests/test_to_actor.py`.
Gate: `test_to_actor test_spawning test_cancellation
test_infected_asyncio test_local test_rpc` = 81 passed,
3 xfailed on `trio`; +`test_ringbuf` = 70 passed, 3 skipped,
3 xfailed on `mp_spawn`.

Step B2 of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477; see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`). With the 2ndary
nursery gone (step B), the two nested error handlers in
`_open_and_supervise_one_cancels_all_nursery` collapse to one,
- the outer `except (Exception, BaseExceptionGroup,
trio.Cancelled)` existed to catch errors bubbling from the
old `._ria_nursery.__aexit__` reaper-group; that nursery no
longer exists.
- trace shows the outer handler's `raise` was already DEAD: the
inner handler records `errors[uid]` as its first action, so
`errors` is always non-empty by the time anything could reach
the outer handler, and the `finally`'s raise-from-`errors`
always superseded the outer `raise`.
- so fold both into a single `except BaseException as
_scope_err` guarding the lone daemon nursery; the `finally`
(unchanged) still raises the collected `errors` as a single
exc or `BaseExceptionGroup`.
- drop the now-unused `outer_err`/`inner_err` locals.
Behaviour-preserving (net ~30 lines lighter); the big diff is
the one-level de-indent of the handler body. The two remaining
`maybe_wait_for_debugger()` guards collapse to the single
pre-teardown wait.

Step B of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477; see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`). With step A having
rerouted `.run_in_actor()` children onto the daemon nursery,
the 2ndary "run-in-actor" nursery spawns nothing and its stored
ref is never read — pure dead weight,
- collapse the inner `async with trio.open_nursery() as
ria_nursery` layer in
`_open_and_supervise_one_cancels_all_nursery`; `da_nursery` is
now the single nursery for ALL subactors.
- `ActorNursery.__init__` loses the `ria_nursery` param + the
`self._ria_nursery` attr; `start_actor()` loses its `nursery=`
escape-hatch (spawns via `self._da_nursery` directly).
- `._cancel_after_result_on_exit` stays — still the ria-child
discriminator for `_reap_ria_portals()`.
Behavior-preserving: a zero-task `trio.open_nursery()` only adds
a checkpoint. The two error handlers are KEPT (now nested under
the single nursery); merging them changes error/cancel
propagation and is deferred to its own PR (TODO left at the
outer `except`).

Step A of the `._ria_nursery` removal (issue #477 follow-up, see
`ai/conc-anal/ria_nursery_removal_plan.md`): `.run_in_actor()`
children now spawn via the default daemon nursery and their
result-reaping moves up into the `ActorNursery` machinery,
- new `_supervise._reap_ria_portals()`: one
`_spawn.cancel_on_completion()` task per ria child, run AFTER
`._join_procs` is set — replacing the per-child reaper task the
backends formerly spawned (keyed off
`._cancel_after_result_on_exit` membership) which required
routing such children into `._ria_nursery`.
- happy path: reap awaited right after `._join_procs.set()`,
preserving "collect ria results before daemon join" sequencing.
- error path: snapshot ria `(portal, subactor)` pairs (backend
`finally`s pop `._children` as procs reap), `await an.cancel()`,
THEN a 0.5s-bounded reap over the snapshot; anything collectable
is already queued in the local ctx and a parked reaper
self-cleans (`trio.Cancelled` results are never stashed). NB: a
concurrent reap+cancel variant deadlocked `test_multierror` and
a 3s bound blew `test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep`'s
deadline — deats in the plan doc's probe history.
- `spawn/_trio.py` + `spawn/_mp.py`: drop the membership branch,
per-child reaper nursery + now-unused `cancel_on_completion`
imports; the join phase is a bare `soft_kill()`.
`._ria_nursery` is now vestigial (zero spawn users): step B
deletes it + `start_actor()`'s `nursery=` escape hatch and merges
the supervisor's two error handlers.

First cut at the `to_thread`/`to_process`-style "run it over there"
wrapper layer from issue #477: a single-remote-task invocation API
decoupled from the `ActorNursery` spawn machinery, composed purely
from the lower level daemon-actor + portal primitives,
- `to_actor.run(fn, **fn_kwargs)` spawns a subactor via
`ActorNursery.start_actor()`, schedules `fn` as its lone task
with `Portal.run()` and ALWAYS reaps it via a `finally`-scoped
`Portal.cancel_actor()` (whose bounded cancel-req wait is
internally shielded so the reap also runs under caller-scope
cancellation).
- remote errors raise directly in the caller's task as boxed
`RemoteActorError`s, moving error collection/propagation up into
whatever local `trio` scope encloses the call.
- "placement" opts: `portal=` reuses a running actor (no
spawn/reap), `an=` spawns from a caller-managed actor-nursery,
neither opens a private call-scoped `open_nursery()` (implicitly
booting the runtime, tunable via pass-through `runtime_kwargs`).
- fail-fast validation BEFORE any spawn: non-streaming async fn
only (same constraint as `Portal.run()`), `portal=`/`an=` mutual
exclusion and no `runtime_kwargs` alongside a placement opt.
Also,
- x-ref the successor API from `.run_in_actor()`'s deprecation TODO
+ docstring; emitting a formal `DeprecationWarning` waits on
migrating in-repo usage.
- log prompt-io provenance per NLNet policy incl. the driver prompt
file.

The new `api/` reference pages surfaced 22 docutils warnings from

`Context.cancel_called`/`.cancelled_caught`/ `.outcome`,

use the `` `role`\ s `` escaped-plural idiom where a role was
pluralized (`gather_contexts`, `mk_pdb`, `MsgCodec`, msg `Error`,

All 5 flagged items were valid (4 real bugs + 1 dead assert),
- fix an inverted `sys.version_info < (3, 14)` guard in
`ipc._linux` — the "`cffi` has no 3.14 support" import note now
fires on 3.14+ (where it applies) instead of on older pys.
- use `os.environ.get('PYTHON_COLORS')` in the `sync_bp` example
so it doesn't `KeyError` when run outside the test harness.
- correct `dump_task_tree()`'s docstring: the `/tmp` + `/dev/tty`
tee is gated on `write_file`/`write_tty`, not "unconditional".
- tidy the `ActorTooSlowError` message spacing in `cancel_actor`.
- replace a tautological `applied is True or applied is False` in
`test_patches` with `isinstance(applied, bool)` (the value is
order-dependent across the module).

Two defensive fixes around the `Portal.cancel_actor()` +
`_try_cancel_then_kill()` escalation from `34f333a0`
"Escalate cancel-ack timeouts to `proc.terminate()`" (the
`trionics.start_or_cancel` follow-up); surfaced by
`/code-review high` on #462,
- guard `proc.terminate()` for backends whose `proc` slot
isn't a `Process` — the future `subint` backend stores an
`int` interp-id, so escalation would `AttributeError`
instead of hard-killing; now it logs + no-ops.
- swap `assert cs.cancelled_caught` for an
`if cs.cancelled_caught and raise_on_timeout:` guard so an
unexpected shielded-scope exit returns a soft `False`
rather than crashing `cancel_actor()` mid-teardown.

Two fixes to the hang-debug SIGUSR1 task-tree dump path,
surfaced by `/code-review high` on #462,
- re-add `_debug_mode` to the sub-actor handler-install gate
in `_runtime.py`. Dropping it (rel. `3a386ba5`/`3d9c75b6`
"Drop debug_mode gate", from the `custom_log_levels_api`
follow-up) was meant to *also* enable non-pdb runs, but
nothing sets `use_stackscope` from `debug_mode`, so
debug-mode subs were left with NO handler — and the default
SIGUSR1 disposition then *kills* them. Now additive:
`_debug_mode OR use_stackscope OR env`.
- pass `write_file=True` at both `dump_task_tree()` SIGUSR1
call sites so the advertised `/tmp/tractor-stackscope-<pid>`
`.log` tee is actually written (was dead under
`--capture=fd`). Matches `1b1ef10a` "Re-enable writing
`stackscope` to file by default"; param from `0df90500`.

Left-over debug trap from the `_runtime_vars` pure get/set
refactor — it fired on *every* struct-form rt-var write (e.g.
via `.update()`), hanging any non-tty / CI / forked actor on
`pdb` stdin.

SIGUSR1 task-tree dumps via `stackscope` should work in
plain (non-pdb) runs too — esp. in infected-`asyncio`
processes where the kernel-default SIGUSR1 disposition is
`Term` (proc dies on `kill -USR1` w/o an installed
handler). Ungate the install path from `_debug_mode` in
both root and sub-actor init; the `use_stackscope` rt-var
+ `TRACTOR_ENABLE_STACKSCOPE` env-var checks remain as
the actual opt-in (e.g. via `--enable-stackscope`).
Deats,
- `_root.open_root_actor`: drop the `debug_mode and ...`
conjunction around the `enable_stack_on_sig()` call;
now gated only on the `enable_stack_on_sig` arg itself.
- `_runtime.Actor` sub-actor init: lift the
`use_stackscope`/`TRACTOR_ENABLE_STACKSCOPE` branch out
of the `if rvs['_debug_mode']:` block to peer-level.
The `use_greenback` branch stays inside `_debug_mode`
(pdb-specific).
- Refresh inline comments on both sites to call out the
infected-`asyncio` "default SIGUSR1 = terminate proc"
rationale.

(cherry picked from commit 3d9c75b6ed)
Wires SC-discipline cancel-then-escalate into
`ActorNursery.cancel()`:
graceful cancel-req -> bounded wait -> hard-kill
Deats,
- add `raise_on_timeout: bool = False` kwarg to `Portal.cancel_actor()`.
When `True`, bounded- wait expiry raises `ActorTooSlowError` instead
of the legacy DEBUG-log + return-`False` path. Default stays `False`
for callers that handle their own escalation (e.g.
`_spawn.soft_kill()` polling `proc.poll()`).
- add `_try_cancel_then_kill()` helper in `_supervise` used by per-child
cancel tasks. On `ActorTooSlowError`, escalates via `proc.terminate()`
(SIGTERM) so a non-acking sub doesn't park `soft_kill()` forever
waiting on `proc.poll()`.
- replace `tn.start_soon(portal.cancel_actor)` in
`ActorNursery.cancel()` with the helper.
Debug-mode bypass:
-----------------
skip escalation (fall back to legacy fire-and-forget cancel) when ANY
of:
- `Lock.ctx_in_debug is not None` (some actor is currently
REPL-locked)
- `_runtime_vars['_debug_mode']` (root opened with `debug_mode=True`).
- `ActorNursery._at_least_one_child_in_debug` (per-child `debug_mode=`
opt-in).
ORing covers root-debug, child-debug, and active- REPL-lock cases
without false-positively SIGTERM- ing a sub-tree proxying stdio for
a REPL session.
Motivated by the `subint_forkserver` dup-name hang where a same-named
sibling subactor's cancel-RPC failed to ack within
`Portal.cancel_timeout` (TCP+ forkserver register-RPC contention) and
the nursery `__aexit__` deadlocked.

(cherry picked from commit 48523358cf)
New `--enable-stackscope` CLI flag installs a SIGUSR1 →
trio-task-tree-dump handler in pytest itself + every
spawned subactor for live stack visibility during hang
investigations. Lighter than `--tpdb` (no pdb machinery
/ tty-lock contention) — pure stack-only triage.
Plumbing:
- `_testing.pytest.pytest_addoption()` adds the flag.
- `_testing.pytest.pytest_configure()` (when flag set):
* exports `TRACTOR_ENABLE_STACKSCOPE=1` so fork-children
inherit it via environ,
* installs the handler in pytest itself via
`enable_stack_on_sig()`.
- `runtime._runtime.Actor.async_main()` extends the
existing `_debug_mode` gate to ALSO fire when
`TRACTOR_ENABLE_STACKSCOPE` is in env — so subactors
install the same handler at runtime startup.
Capture-bypass tee in `dump_task_tree()`:
Pytest's default `--capture=fd` swallows `log.devx()`
output, making SIGUSR1 dumps invisible right when you
need them. Render the dump once to a `full_dump` str,
then unconditionally tee to:
- `/tmp/tractor-stackscope-<pid>.log` (append-mode,
always written) — guaranteed-readable artifact even
under CI / `nohup` / no-tty. `tail -f` to follow.
- `/dev/tty` (best-effort) — pytest never captures the
tty; ignored if device is missing.
Other,
- squelch the benign `RuntimeWarning` ("coroutine method
'asend'/'athrow' was never awaited") from
`stackscope._glue`'s import-time async-gen type
introspection so `--enable-stackscope` setup stays
quiet.
- log msg in the `_runtime` ImportError branch now
mentions `--enable-stackscope` alongside debug-mode.
Usage,
pytest --enable-stackscope -k <hang-test>
# in another shell, find the pid + signal:
kill -USR1 <pytest-or-subactor-pid>
# tail the artifact:
tail -f /tmp/tractor-stackscope-<pid>.log

(factored: dropped spawn-backend-only path: tractor/spawn/_subint.py)
Fifth diagnostic pass pinpointed the hang to
`async_main`'s finally block — every stuck actor
reaches `FINALLY ENTER` but never `RETURNING`.
Specifically `await ipc_server.wait_for_no_more_
peers()` never returns when a peer-channel handler
is stuck: the `_no_more_peers` Event is set only
when `server._peers` empties, and stuck handlers
keep their channels registered.
Wrap the call in `trio.move_on_after(3.0)` + a
warning-log on timeout that records the still-
connected peer count. 3s is enough for any
graceful cancel-ack round-trip; beyond that we're
in bug territory and need to proceed with local
teardown so the parent's `_ForkedProc.wait()` can
unblock. Defensive-in-depth regardless of the
underlying bug — a local finally shouldn't block
on remote cooperation forever.
Verified: with this fix, ALL 15 actors reach
`async_main: RETURNING` (up from 10/15 before).
Test still hangs past 45s though — there's at
least one MORE unbounded wait downstream of
`async_main`. Candidates enumerated in the doc
update (`open_root_actor` finally /
`actor.cancel()` internals / trio.run bg tasks /
`_serve_ipc_eps` finally). Skip-mark stays on
`test_nested_multierrors[subint_forkserver]`.

orphan-SIGINT closed
2. pidfd-based `_ForkedProc.wait` — cancellable
3. `_parent_chan_cs` wiring — shielded parent-chan
loop now breakable
4. `wait_for_no_more_peers` bound — THIS commit
5. Ruled-out hypotheses: tree-kill missing, stuck
socket recv, capture-pipe fill (all wrong)
6. Remaining unknown: at least one more unbounded
wait in the teardown cascade above `async_main`

(factored: dropped subint_forkserver conc-anal doc update)
Completes the nested-cancel deadlock fix started in
0cd0b633 (fork-child FD scrub) and fe540d02 (pidfd-
cancellable wait). The remaining piece: the parent-
channel `process_messages` loop runs under
`shield=True` (so normal cancel cascades don't kill
it prematurely), and relies on EOF arriving when the
parent closes the socket to exit naturally.
Under exec-spawn backends (`trio_proc`, mp) that EOF
arrival is reliable — parent's teardown closes the
handler-task socket deterministically. But fork-
based backends like `subint_forkserver` share enough
process-image state that EOF delivery becomes racy:
the loop parks waiting for an EOF that only arrives
after the parent finishes its own teardown, but the
parent is itself blocked on `os.waitpid()` for THIS
actor's exit. Mutual wait → deadlock.
Deats,
- `async_main` stashes the cancel-scope returned by
`root_tn.start(...)` for the parent-chan
`process_messages` task onto the actor as
`_parent_chan_cs`
- `Actor.cancel()`'s teardown path (after
`ipc_server.cancel()` + `wait_for_shutdown()`)
calls `self._parent_chan_cs.cancel()` to
explicitly break the shield — no more waiting for
EOF delivery, unwinding proceeds deterministically
regardless of backend
- inline comments on both sites explain the mutual-
wait deadlock + why the explicit cancel is
backend-agnostic rather than a forkserver-specific
workaround
With this + the prior two fixes, the
`subint_forkserver` nested-cancel cascade unwinds
cleanly end-to-end.

The `subint_forkserver` backend's child runtime is trio-native (uses
`_trio_main` + receives `SpawnSpec` over IPC just like `trio`/`subint`),
so `tractor.devx.debug._tty_lock` works in those subactors. Wire the
runtime gates that historically hard-coded `_spawn_method == 'trio'` to
recognize this third backend.
Deats,
- new `_DEBUG_COMPATIBLE_BACKENDS` module-const in `tractor._root`
listing the spawn backends whose subactor runtime is trio-native
(`'trio'`, `'subint_forkserver'`). Both the enable-site
(`_runtime_vars['_debug_mode'] = True`) and the cleanup-site reset
key.
off the same tuple — keep them in lockstep when adding backends
- `open_root_actor`'s `RuntimeError` for unsupported backends now
reports the full compatible-set + the rejected method instead of the
stale "only `trio`" msg.
- `runtime._runtime.Actor._from_parent`'s SpawnSpec-recv gate adds
`'subint_forkserver'` to the existing `('trio', 'subint')` tuple
— fork child-side runtime receives the same SpawnSpec IPC handshake as
the others.
- `subint_forkserver_proc` child-target now passes
`spawn_method='subint_forkserver'` (was hard-coded `'trio'`) so
`Actor.pformat()` / log lines reflect the actual parent-side spawn
mechanism rather than masquerading as plain `trio`.

Resetting `_runtime_vars` post-(forking-)spawn was
previously only possible via direct mutation of
`_state._runtime_vars` from an external module + an
inline default dict duplicating the
`_state.py`-internal defaults. Split the access
surface into a pure getter + explicit setter so such
a reset call site becomes a one-liner composition:
`set_runtime_vars(get_runtime_vars(clear_values=True))`.
Deats `tractor/runtime/_state.py`,
- extract initial values into a module-level
`_RUNTIME_VARS_DEFAULTS: dict[str, Any]` constant; the
live `_runtime_vars` is now initialised from
`dict(_RUNTIME_VARS_DEFAULTS)`
- `get_runtime_vars()` grows a `clear_values: bool = False`
kwarg. When True, returns a fresh copy of
`_RUNTIME_VARS_DEFAULTS` instead of the live dict —
still a **pure read**, never mutates anything
- new `set_runtime_vars(rtvars: dict | RuntimeVars)` —
atomic replacement of the live dict's contents via
`.clear()` + `.update()`, so existing references to the
same dict object remain valid. Accepts either the
historical dict form or the `RuntimeVars` struct

(factored: kept only the tractor/runtime/_state.py part; dropped
tractor/spawn/_subint_forkserver.py call-site rewire)
Pull the `_child.py` `__main__` block body out into
a callable `_actor_child_main()` so alternate spawn
backends can bootstrap a subactor without going
through the CLI entrypoint.
Deats,
- new `_actor_child_main(uid, loglevel, parent_addr,
infect_asyncio, spawn_method='trio')` holds the
full child-side runtime startup previously inlined
under `if __name__ == '__main__':`
- `__main__` block reduces to arg-parsing + a call
into the new func
- add `"subint"` to the `_runtime.py` spawn-method
check so a child accepts `SpawnSpec` from that
(future) backend; inert str-compare w/o it

(cherry picked from commit b8f243e98d)
(factored: kept only the `_child.py`/`_runtime.py` entry-extraction parts of
"Impl min-viable `subint` spawn backend (B.2)"; dropped
tractor/spawn/_subint.py + subint prompt-io logs)
Deats,
- use `proc.poll() is None` in `sig_prog()` to
distinguish "still running" from exit code 0;
drop stale `breakpoint()` from fallback kill
path (would hang CI).
- add missing `raise` on the `RuntimeError` in
`async_main()` when no tpt bind addrs given.
- clean up stale uid entries from the registrar
`_registry` when addr eviction empties the
addr list.
- update `discovery.__init__` docstring to match
the new eager `._multiaddr` import.
- fix `registar` -> `registrar` typo in teardown
report log msg.

The prior approach eagerly reused `_parent_chan` when
parent IS the registrar, but that channel may still
carry ctx/stream teardown protocol traffic —
concurrent `unregister_actor` RPC causes protocol
conflicts. Now try a fresh `get_registry()` conn
first; only fall back to the parent channel on
`OSError` (listener already closed/unlinked).
Deats,
- fresh `get_registry()` is the primary path for
all addrs regardless of `parent_is_reg`
- `OSError` handler checks `parent_is_reg` +
`rent_chan.connected()` before fallback
- fallback catches `OSError` and
`trio.ClosedResourceError` separately
- drop unused `reg_addr: Address` annotation

A backlog of 1 caused `ECONNREFUSED` when multiple
sub-actors simultaneously connect to deregister from
a remote-daemon registrar. Now matches the TCP
transport's default backlog (~128).
Also,
- add cross-ref comments between
`_uds.close_listener()` and `async_main()`'s
`parent_is_reg` deregistration path explaining
the UDS socket-file lifecycle

When the parent actor IS the registrar, reuse the existing parent
channel for `unregister_actor` RPC instead of opening a new connection
via `get_registry()`. This avoids failures when the registrar's listener
socket is already closed during teardown (e.g. UDS transport unlinks the
socket file rapidly).
Deats,
- detect `parent_is_reg` by comparing `_parent_chan.raddr` against
`reg_addrs` and if matched, create a `Portal(rent_chan)` directly
instead of `async with get_registry()`.
- rename `failed` -> `failed_unreg` for clarity.

Allow callers to explicitly declare transport
bind addrs instead of always auto-generating
random ones from ponged registrar addresses.
Deats,
- new `tpt_bind_addrs` kwarg wraps each input
addr via `wrap_address()` at init time.
- non-registrar path only auto-generates random
bind addrs when `tpt_bind_addrs` is empty.
- registrar path merges user-provided bind addrs
with `uw_reg_addrs` via `set()` union.
- drop the deprecated `arbiter_addr` param and
its `DeprecationWarning` shim entirely.
Also,
- expand `registry_addrs` type annotation to
`Address|UnwrappedAddress`.
- replace bare `assert accept_addrs` in
`async_main()` with a descriptive
`RuntimeError` msg.

Drop the NIH (notinventedhere) custom parser (`parse_maddr()`,
`iter_prot_layers()`, `prots`/`prot_params` tables) which was never
called anywhere in the codebase.
Replace with a thin `mk_maddr()` factory that wraps the upstream
`multiaddr.Multiaddr` type, dispatching on `Address.proto_key` to build
spec-compliant paths.
Deats,
- `'tcp'` addrs detect ipv4 vs ipv6 via stdlib
`ipaddress` (resolves existing TODO)
- `'uds'` addrs map to `/unix/{path}` per the
multiformats protocol registry (code 400)
- fix UDS `.maddr` to include full sockpath
(previously only used `filedir`, dropped filename)
- standardize protocol names: `ipv4`->`ip4`,
`uds`->`unix`
- `.maddr` properties now return `Multiaddr` objs
(`__str__()` gives the canonical path form so all
existing f-string/log consumers work unchanged)
- update `MsgTransport` protocol hint accordingly

Use walrus `:=` to combine the assignment and
truthiness check for `_parent_main_data` into the
`if` condition, cleanly skipping the fixup block
when `inherit_parent_main=False` yields `{}`.

Clean up mutable defaults, give parent-main bootstrap data a named type, and add direct start_actor coverage so the opt-out change is clearer to review.
Use `inherit_parent_main` across the actor APIs and helper to better describe the behavior, and restore the reviewer note at child bootstrap where the inherited `__main__` data is copied from `SpawnSpec`.
Keep actor-owned parent-main capture and let `_mp_figure_out_main()` decide whether to return `__main__` bootstrap data, avoiding the extra SpawnSpec plumbing while preserving the per-actor flag.
Keep trio child bootstrap data in the spawn handshake instead of stashing it on Actor state so the replay opt-out stays explicit and avoids stale-looking runtime fields.
Let actor callers skip replaying the parent __main__ during child startup so downstream integrations can avoid inheriting incompatible bootstrap state without changing the default spawn behavior.
Move the `Arbiter` class out of `runtime._runtime` into its
logical home at `discovery._registry` as `Registrar(Actor)`.
This completes the long-standing terminology migration from
"arbiter" to "registrar/registry" throughout the codebase.
Deats,
- add new `discovery/_registry.py` mod with `Registrar`
class + backward-compat `Arbiter = Registrar` alias.
- rename `Actor.is_arbiter` attr -> `.is_registrar`;
old attr now a `@property` with `DeprecationWarning`.
- `_root.py` imports `Registrar` directly for
root-actor instantiation.
- export `Registrar` + `Arbiter` from `tractor.__init__`.
- `_runtime.py` re-imports from `discovery._registry`
for backward compat.
Also,
- update all test files to use `.is_registrar`
(`test_local`, `test_rpc`, `test_spawning`,
`test_discovery`, `test_multi_program`).
- update "arbiter" -> "registrar" in comments/docstrings
across `_discovery.py`, `_server.py`, `_transport.py`,
`_testing/pytest.py`, and examples.
- drop resolved TODOs from `_runtime.py` and `_root.py`.

Restructure the flat `tractor/` top-level private mods
into (more nested) subpackages:
- `runtime/`: `_runtime`, `_portal`, `_rpc`, `_state`,
`_supervise`
- `spawn/`: `_spawn`, `_entry`, `_forkserver_override`,
`_mp_fixup_main`
- `discovery/`: `_addr`, `_discovery`, `_multiaddr`
Each subpkg `__init__.py` is kept lazy (no eager
imports) to avoid circular import issues.
Also,
- update all intra-pkg imports across ~35 mods to use
the new subpkg paths (e.g. `from .runtime._state`
instead of `from ._state`)
