Cut 5's TS provider reaches the C# native connector on Windows (the Unity
path). Fix batch 2 closed Cut 4's use-after-free, handler and leak
findings, and fixed the root lockfile. Retention seeds late joiners in
both runtimes.
The Soul gate blocked a merge. Every peer is evicted at the handshake
timeout, koffi allocations leak, client frames pile up without bound,
and the chain-validated connect path does not exist. For the last one
the operator ruled a pinned self-signed certificate.
Fixes 3a (provider) and 3c (binding leak) are in flight as separate
per-file batches.
