Q9 ruled A. The Schannel MsQuic refuses QUIC_CREDENTIAL_TYPE_CERTIFICATE_PKCS12
with QUIC_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED, and PKCS12 is the only credential type a
provider has on both platforms, so a Windows provider could not open a
listener against the runtime this repo was shipping. The same bridge
binary passes all twenty smoke checks and the v1 gate against the OpenSSL
build, which is what Soul verified and what this now downloads.
Two digests, not one. The zip is pinned by FEE9A664 and 19,179,817 bytes;
the msquic.dll inside it by C17C6581 and 4,181,856 bytes. The earlier
report and the cut map's first record put the zip's digest on the DLL,
which is a pin that checks the archive and then ships a file nobody looked
at. Sizes ride along with both, because a digest that fails tells you less
than a digest and a length that fail together.
The CRT is linked statically. A Node or Unity host without the Visual C++
redistributable cannot load a DLL that imports vcruntime140.dll, and
Windows reports that as "the specified module could not be found" while
naming the module that was found. Confirmed on the rebuild: msquic.dll,
CRYPT32, ntdll, KERNEL32, and no CRT import at all. The DLL goes from
83,456 to 302,080 bytes, which is the price of the host not needing
anything installed.
The Unity plugin's committed msquic.dll is still the Schannel one and this
does not touch it; the next build-unity-package.ps1 run is what replaces
it, and that is not in this batch.
