match error on tuolumne #1372

Description

@wihobbs
$ flux run sleep inf
6.069s: job.exception fuwb3VbDbn7 type=alloc severity=0 alloc denied due to type="match error"

I would expect on tuolumne the defaults to be -n1 -c1 with effectively -x -N1 since the policy is firstnodex. But, it's surprising to me this job got so far before it was killed:

$ flux job info fuwb3VbDbn7 eventlog
{"timestamp":1747344988.3431597,"name":"submit","context":{"userid":60943,"urgency":16,"flags":0,"version":1}}
{"timestamp":1747344988.3688915,"name":"jobspec-update","context":{"attributes.system.bank":"lc","attributes.system.project":"*"}}
{"timestamp":1747344988.3700411,"name":"validate"}
{"timestamp":1747344988.3840411,"name":"depend"}
{"timestamp":1747344988.3841166,"name":"priority","context":{"priority":35742}}
{"timestamp":1747344994.4124308,"name":"exception","context":{"type":"alloc","severity":0,"note":"alloc denied due to type=\"match error\"","userid":767}}
{"timestamp":1747344994.412585,"name":"clean"}

Interestingly, specifying a queue gets through fine:

$ flux submit -qpdebug sleep inf

$ flux job info $(flux job last) eventlog
