githouse asks memory-lane, before every merge order, whether AZ5 is on and whether the signer is banned. This is memory-lane's half of that; githouse's half is on maybelle-config#286.
**`GET /api/brakes/?name=justin&name=skyler`** answers `{"scram": false | {who pulled it}, "banned": {"justin": false, "skyler": false}}`.
- githouse merges only on an explicit `false` for both, and refuses when there's no answer or a name is left out. So this endpoint can stop a merge but never make one.
- It's answered during AZ5 too: AZ5 locks writes, and this is a read.
- Anyone can read it. An AZ5 and a ban are both announced in #general anyway, and it only answers for names you ask about (at most 20, each as the inventory spells it).
Why (Plan, section 10): removing someone from the GitHub org stops them merging today. githouse pushes with its own deploy key, so once merges go through githouse, the org no longer stops anyone. A ban has to stop them instead.
Tests: three new tests in `test_mood_admin.py`: a ban and an unban are heard, AZ5 is heard while it holds, and bad questions are refused. Full suite: 1766 tests, OK.
Deploy: redeploy maybelle (before or with maybelle-config#286; until this is live, githouse refuses every merge order, which is the safe way round)
