fix: the vacuous-green guard reads any capture, not daemon one's

leak_sweep refused a green run that had nothing to read, and asked
$OUT.d1.d — a file only the group that spawns the long-lived daemon
creates. Every other group run under E2E_ONLY therefore passed its
scenarios and then failed the sweep, which is a gate reporting on a
fixture instead of on the run in front of it. It now asks whether ANY
capture exists, which is what the guard always meant.

Found by running each group alone, which is what E2E_ONLY is for.
