JSON Polymorphic Dispatch — Graph Coloring Edition (magician ready)

// JSON Polymorphic Dispatch — Graph Coloring Edition
// Email: opsec.ee@pm.me
// CC-BY-NC 4.0 non-commercial license
// Changelog:
// - Graph coloring reorder — group objects by pattern,
//   eliminate indirect branch within groups, mispredict only at
//   K group boundaries instead of N iterations
// - SoA (Structure of Arrays) layout — v[], n[], p[]
//   in separate contiguous arrays for cache-line streaming
// - BTB dealiasing — dispatch labels aligned to
//   distinct 64-byte boundaries to avoid BTB set conflicts
// -Group-direct loops — inner loop per pattern is
//   a direct branch (no computed goto), outer loop transitions
//   between K=4 groups
// - madvise(MADV_SEQUENTIAL) on mmap for readahead
// - Branchless parse_number sign handling
// - FMA-style accumulation in P3 pattern
// - Fixed nested-object overcounting (depth-1 only)
// - Software prefetch tuned per group (stride known)
// -  __builtin_expect on hot paths
// Euman = integral(optimization/time) delta performance
//
// - 4-state gate system (Z/X/0/1) for all pointer
//   params, allocation results, and validation checks
// - v6.5.1: NULL-001 L874 UAF fix -- cached store->count
//   into local before free-path branch (CERT MEM01-C,
//   NIST SI-16, CWE-416)
