Detailed Description

One parameter slot of a gate_rv, either a literal or a wire.

A latent-variable gate_rv (see the "Latent variables" surface) lets a distribution parameter be a scalar provenance token rather than a concrete double: the parameter is then a random variable itself, making the leaf a compound (hierarchical) distribution. In the on-disk extra text a wired slot is written "$i" (0-based index into the gate's wire vector); a literal slot keeps its decimal text as before. When wire_slot < 0 the slot is the literal literal; otherwise it is resolved from wires[wire_slot] at evaluation time.
