Results pane

The interface structure that presents Findings returned in response to Calls submitted
through Entry. It is associated with Entry and presented on Carry. It is not a layer.
See [layout.md](../canonical/layout.md).

- The Results pane exists only while it contains Findings. When no Findings have been
returned, there is no Results pane.
- It is cumulative: new Findings are added above existing Findings, newest at the top.
Existing Findings remain until the Results pane is cleared.
- The clear control removes all Findings and the Results pane ceases to be displayed.
- The show/hide control collapses or reveals it without removing its Findings. When
collapsed, only Entry remains visible.
- Only Findings are displayed in the Results pane. A runtime displays each Finding as a
card or another runtime-appropriate representation.
- Focusing a Finding opens the Object it references on Carry.

Forbidden:
- workspace / findings layer / results layer (the Results pane is not a layer)
- Results pane as a Placement
