The relay now applies a small token bucket to broadcast and multicast frames
originating from remote clients. Those frames are necessary for ARP, DHCP, and
LAN discovery, but they are also the easiest way for one remote peer to flood
every participant and the LAN gateway. When a client exceeds the burst budget,
the relay returns a rate-limited forwarding decision instead of forwarding the
frame.
This is intentionally only the first rate-limit slice from PLAN.md. Unknown
unicast limits and total bandwidth limits remain separate follow-up work. The
limiter lives in room state because forwarding policy already knows the ingress
role, destination MAC, and room membership, and tests can drive it with explicit
Instants without involving QUIC timing.

Relay forwarding now applies the MVP L2 safety policy before choosing output
peers. It drops jumbo frames, link-local switch-control destinations, EAPOL,
LLDP, and slow-protocol frames in both directions, and it blocks remote clients
from sending DHCP server replies or IPv6 router advertisements toward the LAN.
The filters live in the room forwarding path so the pure admission/forwarding
tests and live QUIC datagram path share the same policy. Gateway-origin DHCP
server replies remain allowed, which preserves the plan's goal that remote TAP
clients can receive LAN DHCP through the tunnel.

The relay now keeps a shared room registry behind the QUIC endpoint and
runs an accept loop instead of only binding the socket. Each accepted
connection must open its first bidirectional control stream with a hello
frame; the relay joins the room registry and replies with welcome or reject.
Admission clamps the hello datagram budget to Quinn's negotiated peer
datagram size before choosing the effective room MTU, so room state is based
on what the connection can actually carry. Accepted peers remain present
until the QUIC connection closes, then the relay removes them through the
existing leave cleanup path.
The development self-signed certificate helper now exposes the certificate
to tests so a loopback Quinn client can trust the relay and exercise the real
stream codec path.

Add explicit room leave semantics for future relay connection tasks. Disconnect
handling will need to remove peers from room membership without reaching into the
room internals or leaving stale MAC indexes behind.
Leaving a client now removes both its peer entry and MAC mapping so the same MAC
can rejoin later. Leaving a gateway clears gateway occupancy while preserving any
remaining clients. If the last peer leaves, the room is removed from the
registry. The result reports which peer left and whether the room was removed so
the networking layer can emit lifecycle events cleanly.

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.

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.
