Ask tmux to expand a format against this session.

The fields above are what a session is; this reaches the rest of tmux's vocabulary without a method per variable.

A target tmux cannot find is not an error to tmux. It expands the fields it cannot resolve to nothing, prints the literals around them, and exits zero — so a session that has been killed answers with a blank that reads like a value. This asks for the session's own id alongside the caller's format and reports missing when the answer is not this session.
