raphael 64faac73bb DD2: raw GEM 300 interop harness
Cross-validates the GEM 300 streams secsgem-py 0.3.0 doesn't ship
(S3 carriers, S14 control jobs, S16 process jobs) by minting custom
`SecsStreamFunction` subclasses on the fly and registering the
matching `DataItem` definitions (CARRIERID, CTLJOBID, PRJOBID, PRCMD,
CTLJOBCMD, MF, …) with `secsgem.secs.data_items`.

Drives the C++ passive server through:
  * S3F17/F18 (E87 carrier action) — server replies CarrierIDUnknown
    for the unregistered carrier.
  * S16F5/F6  (E40 PRJobCommand)   — server returns InvalidObject
    for the nonexistent PJ.
  * S16F27/F28 (E94 CJobCommand)   — server cascades CJSTART.

Scope cut: S16F11 full-body and S14F9 (both have variable-length
nested lists with named scalar elements) hit a quirk of secsgem-py's
SFDL tokenizer where `< L name > <SCALAR> >` parses as a fixed-1
list, not a variable-length list of SCALARs.  The full-body S16F11
is already round-tripped by the C++ unit tests (and via secsgem-py's
host driver in `host_vs_cpp_server.py`), so the raw harness focuses
on the no-variable-list messages where the SFDL grammar cooperates.

secsgem-py interop harness

Cross-validates our C++ SECS-II / HSMS / GEM implementation against secsgem-py 0.3.0, the de-facto Python reference. Everything runs in Docker — no Python or secsgem-py on the host.

What it tests

24 named checks on the C++-server side; 4 explicit checks on the C++-host side; 4 GEM-300 raw-frame checks. Implicit HSMS state-machine and wire-level framing validation everywhere.

Running

# Start C++ passive server, then drive it with secsgem-py host:
docker compose up -d server
docker compose run --rm interop python3 /app/interop/host_vs_cpp_server.py \
    --host server --port 5000 --session-id 0

# Start Python passive equipment, then probe it with the C++ host:
docker compose up -d equipment_py
docker compose run --rm builder /app/build/secs_interop_probe \
    --host equipment_py --port 5000 --device 0

Both exit 0 on success.

What this caught

Real bugs surfaced by interop (now fixed):

  1. Strict U4 parsing rejected U1-encoded identifiers. SEMI E5 declares DATAID, RPTID, VID, CEID, ALID, EXID, etc. as U1 | U2 | U4 | U8; secsgem-py picks the smallest width that fits. Our as_u4_scalar, as_u2_scalar, etc. were strict. Now lenient with range-checked downcasts (messages_helpers.hpp::any_unsigned_first).
  2. PPBODY rejected when sent as ASCII. SEMI lets PPBODY be ASCII | Binary | List; secsgem-py defaults to ASCII. Added the BINARY_OR_ASCII codegen item type plus a permissive as_text_or_binary accessor, used for S7F3/F6.
  3. Missing S1F23 / S1F24 (Collection Event Namelist). Added the wire schema in data/messages.yaml, a vids_for(ceid) accessor on the event-report store, and the dispatch handler in secs_server.cpp.
  4. Missing S10F3 handler (Terminal Display Single, host→equipment). Our server only registered S10F1; per SEMI E5, S10F1 is equipment→host and S10F3 is the host→equipment counterpart. Added the missing dispatch.

The C++ test suite still passes (278 cases / 1436 assertions) after each of these changes — the fixes are purely permissive widenings, no existing behaviour was broken.
