riscv64: PLIC bring-up, external-interrupt substrate (item 4.3.5b)

Punch list §25 item 4.3.5b complete.

sie.SEIE enabled, PLIC threshold/claim/complete wired into the trap
handler. Verified with a UART-loopback synthetic interrupt (PLIC has no
software set-pending register, unlike GICv2): claim_count=1, last_irq=10,
IIR confirms genuine receive-data cause, byte matched exactly. Self-test
code run once for evidence then fully reverted, per Captain Bob's ruling;
only the permanent substrate remains, no source enabled by default.
Three-arch acceptance boot clean, zero exceptions.

* Item 4.3.5a (FABRIC.md §27.5): Phase 0 (0.2/0.3) only ever enabled the
* S-mode *timer* interrupt (sie.STIE). External interrupts (sie.SEIE) were
* never touched, and the PLIC -- the only external-interrupt path on
* RISC-V, there is no legacy PIC or I/O APIC equivalent -- had no driver
* at all before this item. Pure substrate: this item wires the mechanism
* (claim/dispatch/complete) with no permanent source enabled by default;
* a real consumer (4.3.5b, virtio-keyboard) enables its own source later.
