lirent 93966c3df2 Define the win32 engine; add a dump source and physical sigscan
Name and isolate the Windows engine as one of potentially several. The
public surface moves to include/win32.h with an opaque vmie_win32 handle
(vmie_win32_open/close/mem); the engine's Windows internals — host bring-up,
the struct-offset profile, process/module/PE/text decode — live under
src/engine/win32. The generic address-space layer stays in src/engine
(gva.c + engine-arch.h, carrying no offset table): gva.c is de-profiled, and
CR3 bring-up reaches the hot translator through a cold gva_translate bridge
so the zero-copy hot path stays private and inlinable.

A memory source is now first-class and public: vmie_mem_open/_open_segs/
_close open a flat dump (or an explicit segment map) as a vmie_mem, with
gpa_seg promoted to the public contract. The physical signature scan is
exposed source-agnostically: sig_scan_mem returns GPAs for any vmie_mem,
sig_scan_sources scans several sources with per-source attribution, and
sig_from_bytes builds an exact needle from a byte span. The pure matcher is
unchanged; dumps and the live engine image are scanned uniformly, neither
needing the other.

/* win32.h - public Windows-guest surface of the vmi-engine.
*
* The host opens a guest's RAM backing file (a flat, writable, coherent mmap),
* recovers the kernel address space, and reads/writes guest memory by CR3 and
* virtual address. Everything is CR3-keyed, never PID-keyed: a `process` already
* carries its own cr3, which is the key to that address space.
*
* This header is the Windows-typed surface (process/pmodule/gtext, bring-up,
* enumeration, the win32 scan wrappers). The OS-agnostic memory-model contract
* lives in memmodel.h (pulled in below); the scanners in scan.h/sigscan.h.
*
* Conventions:
* - `cr3` is a raw CR3 / DirectoryTableBase value; low flag bits are masked
* internally, so either the masked PML4 GPA or the raw register works.
* - Integer returns: 0 on success, negative on failure, unless stated.
* - The library never takes ownership of caller buffers and never retains a
* pointer past the call that received it, unless explicitly stated.
