Matthew Jackson 6e14fc0c0c libfreemkv: 1.7.0 groundwork — sector-recycle soundness + CI hardening
Security
- Remove the unsafe Vec::set_len over recycled sector buffers — UB reachable
  from safe code (GHSA-j8ww-f5fg-9pmh, low). Uses Vec::resize; pooling unchanged.

CI / tooling
- clippy on stable with the MSRV single-sourced from Cargo.toml; cargo-deny
  dependency-audit gate with first-party git sources allowed (#15); audience-based
  comment-guard (#17).

Docs
- README (keydb ownership, BD-J parser count), drive-access transport/reset
  notes, mux timeline module-doc links.

Why Ordering::Relaxed

Ordering::Relaxed is sufficient on both load and store because this flag is purely advisory — no other memory operations piggyback on it for happens-before ordering. Callers that need to publish data across threads do so via channels or other synchronization, not via this bit.

Why 250ms for POLL_INTERVAL

250 ms is the sweet spot between responsiveness (operator presses Stop, sees it take effect within ~quarter-second) and waste (atomic load + clock read is cheap but not free at thousands of hertz). It's centralised here so the half-dozen halt-polling loops across io can't drift apart silently.
