Each target's row shows its result as soon as its check ends (closes #91)

tick drew no row until the round's slowest check ended, up to 24
seconds at a 30-second interval since checks time out at 80% of it.
Each check now pushes its sample and redraws its row as it ends;
sorting, the summary, the health box and offline detection still run
once, after the last check. A check that ends while paused or after its
round is given up draws nothing, and the first round is still discarded
as a whole. The row is looked up when the check ends, as a pin click
can re-sort the rows mid-round.

The new unit test runs tick on the mocked clock against a stand-in
page.
