enricobuehlerandClaude Fable 5 9d67dc18aa perf(core): two-lane AES-GCM seal for large frames + send-thread stage split
Phase 0.4 host half: PUNKTFUNK_PERF now splits the send thread per window into
fec/seal/sock (SealPerf via Session::take_seal_perf; the paced video path folds
its chunk-send time in through note_sock_ns), logged with per-packet ns in the
send loop's perf line. Measured on .21 at 2.5 Gbps offered: fec ~100 ns/pkt
(Phase 1.4 landed), seal ~1000 ns/pkt = 21.5% of a core, sock ~1400 ns/pkt —
the Phase 1.5 gate (seal > ~15% of the thread at 2 Gbps) trips.

Phase 1.5: seal_frame_inner is now write-then-seal — packetize writes every
packet's plaintext at its final wire offset, then a frame of >= 256 wire
packets (~300 KB) splits the AES-GCM pass across two lanes: a persistent
punktfunk-seal2 worker (lazy-spawned, rendezvous channels, no per-frame spawn,
zero steady-state allocs via a reused hand-off Vec) seals the back half under
nonces seq_base+i while the send thread seals the front. Nonce order is
deterministic per shard index, so the wire is byte-identical to the sequential
pass — pinned by the wire-equivalence test, now including a 469-packet frame
plus an assertion that the lane actually spawned. Small frames and the probe's
~17-packet AUs stay single-lane; PUNKTFUNK_SEAL_LANES=1 forces single-lane.

Validated: 84 core tests + workspace suites + clippy -D warnings on .21.
Halves the seal wall-clock on big frames — headroom for the 10G pair's ~4.8
Gbps ceiling (seal alone would be ~47% of a core there) and PyroWave 4K rates.
