feat(infra): virtio-net ring as compute pipeline

Add virtio_net_transform.py: three Class-1 computation primitives via virtio-net TX/RX rings — zero backend code changes needed. 1. HASH_REPORT — host writes Toeplitz RSS hash into RX header (virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash.hash_value return channel) 2. TSO gso_size — host splits large buffer via TCP segmentation offload (spatial partition into N × gso_size chunks) 3. MRG_RXBUF — host merges multiple RX buffers (aggregation primitive) Structs: VirtioNetHdr (12B), VirtioNetHdrHash (20B), VringDesc (16B). Receipt schema: virtio_transform_receipt_v1 with CRC32 witness_hash. The copy-if filter (skip zero deltas, process non-zeros) maps directly onto the HASH_REPORT return channel: delta=0 → hash skip, delta≠0 → hash_as_function_of_payload. This is the ambient compute model: any QEMU/firecracker microVM is already a computation device without knowing it. Build: 3313 jobs, 0 errors (lake build) Tools: glslang, spirv-as, spirv-dis (native); tint from nixpkgs for WGSL

+Virtio-Net Transform — Use virtio-net TX/RX rings as a computation pipeline.
+
+Implements three exploitable primitives from the virtio-net spec:
+  1. HASH_REPORT  — host writes Toeplitz RSS hash into RX header
+  2. TSO gso_size — host splits large buffer via TCP segmentation offload
+  3. MRG_RXBUF   — host merges multiple RX buffers (aggregation)
+
+This is NOT a network driver. It is a computation substrate that happens to
+use the virtio-net ring as its DMA mailbox. The host QEMU backend processes
+packets without knowing it is being used for computation.
+
+Minimal (~200 lines of C, no kernel modules needed). Runs in any QEMU/firecracker
+microVM with /dev/vfio or raw PCI BAR access.
+
+Shim boundary: I/O only. No decision logic. All computation mapping decisions
+belong in Lean (Semantics.MeshRouting and future VirtioNet modules).
+
+Reference: virtio/virtio_net.h, virtio/virtio_ring.h (Linux kernel headers)
+
+Usage:
+    python3 virtio_net_transform.py --example
+    python3 virtio_net_transform.py --analyze <payload.bin>
+    python3 virtio_net_transform.py hash-report <payload.bin> [--key <16bytes>]
+    python3 virtio_net_transform.py tso-split <payload.bin> --chunk-size <N>
