The relay now keeps active peer sessions alongside room admission state. After
a successful hello/welcome handshake, the connection enters a datagram loop
and stays registered until the QUIC connection closes.
Incoming datagrams are only considered for forwarding when their overlay room
id, peer id, and Ethernet frame type match the peer assigned by the relay.
The relay then reuses the existing room forwarding decision logic, clones the
matching live target sessions, and sends a relay-stamped Ethernet datagram to
each connected target that can carry the frame.
This keeps spoofable wire metadata out of the trust boundary: clients can put
whatever they want in an overlay header, but the relay forwards using the
room and peer identity established during the control handshake.

Make the relay binary bind a real Quinn endpoint instead of only printing its
configuration. This is the next runtime step toward the public relay while still
keeping connection handling out of this commit.
The relay now builds a self-signed development TLS configuration, advertises the
lanparty ALPN, enables QUIC datagram buffers, binds the configured UDP address,
prints the actual local address, and waits for Ctrl-C before closing the
endpoint. The generated certificate is explicitly a development placeholder;
production certificate and client trust handling remain future work.
The rustls dependency is pinned to the ring provider to match Quinn's selected
crypto backend and avoid process-level provider ambiguity at runtime.

Replace the placeholder relay binary with a typed command-line configuration
entry point. This gives the future QUIC server loop the listen endpoint and room
limit configuration it needs without mixing command parsing into networking or
room-state code.
The relay now accepts --listen as either a socket address or an explicit UDP
shorthand such as 443/udp, defaults to 0.0.0.0:443/udp, and validates that the
per-room client limit is positive. The binary currently reports the parsed
configuration and clearly states that the QUIC server loop is not wired yet, so
this commit does not pretend to provide a working relay.

- cargo test --workspace

- cargo run -p lanparty-relay -- --listen 443/udp

Add socket-free relay forwarding logic for Ethernet datagrams. The future QUIC
relay loop can now ask the room registry which peer IDs should receive a frame
instead of embedding switching policy in network IO code.
Forwarding validates that the ingress peer belongs to the room, drops malformed
Ethernet frames, rejects client frames whose source MAC does not match the MAC
announced during admission, never reflects frames back to ingress, routes known
client unicasts directly, and floods broadcast/multicast or unknown unicast
frames to the other room peers. The decision reports shared observability action
and drop-reason values so the networking layer can log consistently.
This still does not send bytes over QUIC; it only defines the room-local switch
decision that the datagram loop will use.

Add a tested relay room layer before introducing QUIC socket handling. The relay
now has a focused place to enforce room membership rules instead of mixing those
rules into the future networking loop.
RoomRegistry accepts validated endpoint hellos, assigns room and peer IDs,
returns server welcome data, limits clients per room, permits only one gateway,
rejects duplicate client MACs, and keeps the room TAP MTU stable once the first
peer joins. A later peer must support the existing room MTU rather than silently
shrinking it after an earlier client may already have configured its TAP adapter.
The networking pieces still need to call this layer from the reliable control
stream and use the resulting peer metadata for datagram forwarding.
