Phase 18 focuses on anchoring the Ternary Fabric with workload realism and a formal programming model.

Key changes:

  1. T-LSTM Maturation: The T-LSTM kernel is now a first-class citizen in the emulator, supporting stateful gate simulation and multi-tile scheduling.
  2. Host API Surface: A new C/C++ API (tfmbs_api.h) provides a clean co-processor programming model, abstracting tensor residency and asynchronous task submission.
  3. Measurement Plane: The emulator now tracks fine-grained cycles and calculates a synthetic 'fabric_cost' metric to proxy energy efficiency.
  4. Three-Tier Benchmarking: Added Layer 1 (Synthetic) and Layer 2 (Kernel) benchmarks to validate hardware semantics and primitive performance.
  5. Roadmap & Specs: Documentation updated with the Phase 18 specification.

PR created automatically by Jules for task 14791587034391857582 started by @t81dev

- Promoted T-LSTM to a native emulator kernel path with 4-gate simulation.
- Defined a formal host programming model in include/tfmbs_api.h.
- Implemented high-level primitives (tfmbs_tensor_bind, tfmbs_gemm, tfmbs_lstm_step).
- Integrated a cycle-aware cost model and enhanced metrics (cycles, fabric_cost, mem_traffic).
- Established a three-tier benchmarking suite in benchmarks/ directory.
- Updated documentation and roadmap to reflect Phase 18 objectives.

👋 Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request.

When you start a review, I'll add a 👀 emoji to each comment to let you know I've read it. I'll focus on feedback directed at me and will do my best to stay out of conversations between you and other bots or reviewers to keep the noise down.

I'll push a commit with your requested changes shortly after. Please note there might be a delay between these steps, but rest assured I'm on the job!

For more direct control, you can switch me to Reactive Mode. When this mode is on, I will only act on comments where you specifically mention me with @jules. You can find this option in the Pull Request section of your global Jules UI settings. You can always switch back!
