Wait for each frame while the world timeline plays, and quiet the bar

Play no longer runs ahead of the data. The world clock gains a wait, which
holds continuous play where it is while a layer loads what the time needs,
and a gate, which keeps play from passing a time a layer has yet to load.
Weather gates play at its next frame and waits there until the frame shows,
so every frame is seen however fast play runs; it waits no more than eight
seconds on a frame that never comes, and takes a wait only when its frames
change. Play pressed while a frame loads waits for it too. A scrub still
drops what loads and moves on.

The bar loses its long date and the dates at its ends: the time rides in a
bubble over the handle, which pulses while play waits, and the bar runs
left to right in every language. Play starts at real time.
