Replace the state-relabel-only round-robin with the SUB-OS "Weave" scheduler backed by a genuine callee-saved context switch. Threads now actually run on their own kernel stacks instead of merely having their state field rewritten. What was implemented: - sub_ctx_switch(): per-arch assembly (arch/x86_64/cpu/switch.asm, arch/aarch64/cpu/switch.S, arch/armv8i/cpu/switch.S) that saves/restores the callee-saved register set (+ flags on x86_64) on each thread's own stack, plus a first-run trampoline (sub_thread_trampoline) that launches a freshly forged thread frame with entry/arg in callee-saved registers. - task_forge_frame(): builds the initial saved-context frame per arch so the very first switch into a new thread lands on the trampoline; task_t gains a pointer-sized ctx_sp so the same struct works on 64- and 32-bit. - Weave policy (kernel/sched.c): WEAVE_NLANES priority lanes, always dispatch the lowest non-empty lane round-robin; a task that yields voluntarily is woven UP a lane (interactive), one preempted after burning its quantum is woven DOWN (CPU-bound). Cooperative switching (sched_yield / task_exit) is always live; timer-driven preemption is gated behind sched_set_preempt() and left disarmed for now. - task_exit() now switches to the next runnable thread via sched_exit_current() instead of spinning/halting. - Boot-time weave_selftest() (x86_64) and sched_dump() diagnostics. How it was verified: - Builds clean for all three targets: x86_64 (CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux-gnu-, RUSTC="rustc --target x86_64-unknown-none"), aarch64, armv8i. No new warnings; the new x86_64 asm carries a .note.GNU-stack section. - Booted x86_64 under QEMU (TCG): the self-test runs three cooperative kernel threads to completion on separate stacks with the expected 1->2->3 round-robin interleave, reports "20 real context switches, 3/3 workers exited", returns cleanly to the boot thread, and boot proceeds normally to ring-3 init and the shell. No fault/panic. Left unverified: - The aarch64/armv8i sub_ctx_switch frames build and link but are not yet boot-tested on their QEMU targets (tracked in docs/AUTODEV_ROADMAP.md). - Timer preemption path is implemented but disarmed; exited kernel threads currently leak their stack (reaper is next in the backlog).
