ddidderr 879cb689a4 feat(ctrl): add control stream frame codec
Add the framing layer that turns typed control messages into bytes for reliable
QUIC streams. This keeps the codec next to the control schema while leaving the
actual QUIC read/write loops for a later relay/client/gateway slice.

The codec uses a four-byte big-endian length prefix followed by JSON. JSON is a
phase-1 choice for inspectability during manual tunnel bring-up; the explicit
length prefix keeps stream parsing deterministic and the 64 KiB cap prevents a
peer from announcing unbounded control payloads. Decoding validates the message
after deserialization so forged stream bytes cannot bypass constructor checks.

The next networking slice can use complete_control_frame_len to split a stream
buffer and decode_control_frame once a complete frame is available.

Test Plan:
- cargo fmt --check
- cargo test --workspace
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings

# softlan-vpn
Monorepo for a Layer 2 over QUIC LAN party bridge.
## Workspace crates
- `lanparty-proto`: shared frame format, MAC validation, MTU helpers.
- `lanparty-ctrl`: control-plane messages (join/hello/role/version).
- `lanparty-obs`: shared diagnostics/logging event models.
- `lanparty-client-core`: platform-agnostic client session state.
- `lanparty-client-win`: Windows TAP + route/metric handling binary.
- `lanparty-gateway`: Linux AF_PACKET gateway binary.
- `lanparty-relay`: public QUIC relay binary.
### `lanparty-proto`
Transport-agnostic tunnel contract shared by all binaries:
- overlay datagram header encoding and decoding
- Ethernet frame header parsing
- MAC address parsing and identity validation
- QUIC datagram to TAP MTU budget helpers
### `lanparty-ctrl`
Reliable control-plane schema shared by the QUIC stream handlers:
- endpoint hello messages with role, room, MAC, and datagram budget
- server welcome, reject, peer lifecycle, stats, and disconnect messages
- room-code, role/MAC, peer-id, and effective-MTU validation
- length-prefixed JSON control frames for reliable QUIC streams
### `lanparty-obs`
Shared diagnostics and structured logging vocabulary:
- gateway/relay frame logs with MACs, ethertype, length, peer, and action
- tunnel counters shared by control messages and runtime diagnostics
- client connectivity/TAP diagnostics and user-facing status messages
### `lanparty-relay`
Public relay binary and relay-owned room state:
- room admission for clients and gateways
- one gateway per room, duplicate client MAC rejection, and room limits
- stable effective room MTU chosen before Ethernet datagrams flow
