The gateway now runs the actual frame bridge after relay admission. It registers
the AF_PACKET socket with Tokio using AsyncFd, reads valid LAN Ethernet frames
and forwards them as relay datagrams, and writes valid relay Ethernet datagrams
back to the LAN socket.
The packet socket is opened nonblocking so the bridge can shut down cleanly on
Ctrl-C without leaving a blocking recv thread behind. Existing send_ethernet and
recv_ethernet helpers now share the same validation and encoding helpers used by
the bridge.
This still needs a privileged LAN-host smoke test with a real wired interface,
but the compile-time and loopback coverage now include the gateway relay side of
the bridge and the non-root-safe packet-socket validation.

The gateway now has a small Linux PacketSocket wrapper for raw Ethernet frame
I/O. It resolves the configured interface with if_nametoindex, opens an
AF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW socket for ETH_P_ALL, binds it to the interface, and exposes
thin send_frame and recv_frame helpers around the owned file descriptor.
The gateway binary opens this socket after completing the relay control
handshake. The frame bridge loop is still intentionally left for a later slice,
but the process now proves the two required resources are available: relay
admission and raw L2 access on the LAN interface.
Tests cover interface-name validation and missing-interface lookup without
requiring root or CAP_NET_RAW.
