Console prompt: identity/machine both sides once redirected off Hera

Browse Source 
sk_console_user_prefix() (repl.c) previously always returned "zuse"
(or the WIREBIND-attached username) as the left side of the bracket
prefix, regardless of which VM the console was actually pointed at --
"[zuse@rajames]" after USE rajames, always showing the authenticating
superuser rather than the active identity.

Changed on Captain Bob's direct instruction: once the console is
redirected into a WIREBIND identity's own console VM
(console_get_vm_name() != "Hera"), show that same name on both sides
-- "[rajames@rajames]" -- since WIREBIND births the console VM
literally named after the identity, so the identity IS that VM, not a
separate label. At the top level (still on Hera, nothing has
redirected yet), the original zuse_session/WIREBIND-username logic is
unchanged.

An earlier, more ambitious attempt (separate identity/machine tracked
state across every console_set_vm_name() call site) regressed live to
a wrong [zuse@Artemis] prompt and was fully reverted before reaching
any acceptance run -- the landed fix needed none of that new state,
just this one function.

Verified live on all three architectures: [zuse@Hera] at the top
level and after a live WIREBIND attach (before USE), [rajames@rajames]
after USE rajames, with task 3.9's Stage D relay still firing
correctly on top of it. Zero UNKNOWN WORD, dict_hash unaffected
(display-only change).

* VM, not a separate "who's driving" label layered on top of it.
* "R.A. James is also a VM" was the exact reasoning given.
*
* Below the top level (console_get_vm_name() != "Hera", i.e. USE or a
* BIRTH/RUN/CONNECT-* redirect has pointed the console somewhere else),
* that target's own name already answers "who/what is this" -- return
* it directly, and emit_prefix() ends up printing it on both sides
* (this function's return @ console_get_vm_name(), unchanged). At the
* top level (still on Hera, nothing has redirected the console yet),
* her own name doesn't say WHO is driving her, so this keeps the
* original zuse_session/WIREBIND-username logic for that one case --
