build: stage beside dist/, not inside it

Browse source 
The staging directory was dist/.build-XXXXXX. A build that is killed cannot remove it, the next build removed
only its own, and "files": ["dist"] put the leftover into the npm tarball. .gitignore hid it from git status and
the freshness test skipped every name starting with ".build-", so nothing reported it.

The staging directory is now .dist-staging beside the output (.<name>-staging for --out <dir>) and is cleared at
the start of each build. The freshness test no longer skips anything: a stray file under dist/ fails it.

Checked in a scratch copy: a build stopped with SIGKILL after 1.5 s leaves .dist-staging/ and an unchanged dist/;
npm pack lists 36 files, none from the staging directory; the next build removes it. New test for the same on a
temporary package. npm test: 28 pass in 8.2-9.5 s.
