A cell reads allow, block or partly (some new connections let through,
the rest not), with its exceptions counted by what they do (+3 -1), and
what they let through: services with the addresses they are limited to,
under the grid in hc matrix and in each cell on the Matrix page. A zone
to itself is marked: only traffic routed between its interfaces passes
the firewall. The details list each rule's hits. hc matrix pads the
grid by visible width: the colours' escape codes had thrown it out of
line.

internal/matrix walks each pair's rules in order, as nftables would, for
new connections: zone → zone (forward), zone → the firewall (input) and
back (output), with the built-ins that act on new connections. A rule
for the whole pair decides it; one for part of its traffic (addresses,
services, times, rates, a quota) is an exception; the rest falls to the
policy. Rules whose addresses all lie in networks connected to other
zones are left out of a pair. GET /matrix (with ?changeset, pending
changes), hc matrix [FROM TO], and a Matrix page whose cells open their
rules.
e2e: 166 checks, among them the matrix of the maintainer's imported
ruleset.
