The assembly additionally includes a cylinder defining an axis and abutting the faceplate at a first end of the cylinder. The cylinder can be rotatable about the axis relative to the faceplate in which the cylinder includes a passage from an inlet centered on the axis to an outlet that is alignable with a first opening of the multiple openings of the faceplate responsive to rotation of the cylinder.
