Fix aarch64 Stadium/COOL O(ncells) scan; rerun std79 DoE clean, 81/81 (FABRIC-3.md §XVI)
Root cause of the 90+ minute aarch64 VM-birth stall found in §XV: stadium_admit()'s eviction-fallback scan iterated the entire stadium_ncells array filtered by owner, not the calling VM's own resident cells as its own doc comment claimed. Combined with stadium_grant_quota() always splitting from Hera's shrinking free list and stadium_word_dispatch() calling stadium_admit() per distinct word a VM's capsule executes, this compounded into a real O(n) blowup — catastrophic specifically on aarch64 because its -m 4096 (vs 1024 on amd64/riscv64) inflates the kmalloc heap kmalloc_init() bisects down to, which inflates stadium_ncells 4x (335,544 vs 83,886 cells, measured from boot logs). Fixed by threading a real per-VM doubly-linked resident-cell list (StadiumVMQuota.resident_head + stadium_resident_next[]/stadium_resident_prev[]) so the fallback scan is bounded by that VM's own resident count, not the global cell array size. Verified with a full rerun of the 3x9x3 std79 DoE campaign from scratch: one continuous boot per architecture, all 9 identities simultaneously live throughout (the 3-boot aarch64/riscv64 batching workaround is no longer needed). 81/81 trials correct, 0 mismatches, DOE-RUN header sequence md5-identical across all three raw logs. Identity 04's attach on aarch64, which stalled 90+ minutes before, now completes in ~34s; full boot-to-DoE-complete in ~290s. Corrects an earlier misreading (carried into §XV, std79-doe.fth's comments, and the project memory note) that described the symptom as a runaway "335,000+ cycles" dispatch counter — those were cell array indices, not an event count.

3(arch) x 9(identity) x 3(rep) randomized full-factorial std79 DoE: 81/81 correct (FABRIC-3.md §XV)
Formal successor to §XII's ad hoc exerciser campaign, requested as a genuine randomized full-factorial design matching this project's own DoE methodology (capsules/doe.4th's Fisher-Yates shuffle), and written entirely in FORTH per explicit request -- not host-orchestrated shell scripting. experiments/std79-doe/std79-doe.fth: builds a 27-cell (9 identity x 3 replicate) run matrix, Fisher-Yates shuffles it with a fixed seed (matching doe.4th's own default), then dispatches each of the 24 exerciser test cases directly into the target identity's own live VM via VM-EXEC -- no console USE redirection, no per-trial host interaction. The zuse case runs as directly-compiled native code (RUN-TEST-NATIVE) rather than VM-EXEC targeting "Hera" herself: VM-EXEC's own vm_state_push/pop only saves rsp/exit_colon/ecw_nesting, not input_buffer/input_pos, so a self-targeting call while this capsule's own vm_interpret call is still mid-line would risk exactly the class of bug the idle-tick reentrancy guards exist for. amd64: all 27 trials ran with all 9 identities simultaneously live in one boot -- clean, zero mismatches. aarch64: hit a real, uninvestigated bug attaching all 9 simultaneously -- the 6th live VM's birth stalled for 90+ minutes at 100%+ CPU with a Stadium COOL-dispatch counter already at 335,000+ cycles, versus tens of thousands at the same checkpoint for earlier identities. Not root-caused here (flagged in FABRIC-3.md for later); worked around by splitting into 3 boots of 3 simultaneously-live identities each, every boot sharing the same seed so the master 27-slot shuffle is identical, filtered per boot by a new ACTIVE-LO/ACTIVE-HI range (EXEC-STD79-DOE's signature: seed lo hi -- ). run_id is always the slot's true position in the master shuffle, so trial order stays comparable across boots -- standard DoE blocking. riscv64: same 3-boot pattern, clean. Grand total: 81/81 trials correct, 0 mismatches, across all three architectures, all nine identities, all three replicates. Also flagged (FABRIC-3.md §XIV, not fixed): attaching several WIREBIND identities near-simultaneously (whether via rapid hotplug or all present from boot) causes the kernel to silently detect only some of them -- confirmed at the host/QMP level that every device was genuinely present. Worked around throughout this campaign by attaching one identity at a time with confirmed waits; real hardware hotplug could hit the same gap, so it's a genuine robustness concern, not just a test-harness inconvenience.
