bdcd2ecbef Close out the open issues: bridge pcap wiring, perf collector, Tier-4
Wraps the three remaining 🚧 items from the README so every collector
the threat-model promises is actually live, and the Tier-4 path
(real-malware fetch + upload + exec) works end-to-end as soon as a
sha256 lands in samples/store/.

Closes spectral/CIS490#4, #5, #6.

== #6 — Bridge pcap wiring ==
EpisodeConfig grows three optional fields:
  bridge_iface: str | None        # e.g. "br-malware"
  bridge_ip:    str = "10.200.0.1"
  pcap_snaplen: int = 256
When bridge_iface is set, EpisodeRunner spawns tcpdump for the duration
of the schedule (network.pcap), stops it cleanly on episode end, and
runs collectors.pcap.bucketize() to produce netflow.jsonl per the
100-ms schema in docs/data-model.md. EpisodeResult + meta.result
gain rows_netflow + pcap_bytes counters.

vm/launch_demo.sh + launch_target.sh now switch between SLIRP usermode
and tap+bridge based on $BRIDGE — operator pre-creates the tap as a
bridge member, no sudo from the launcher.

run_real_vm_demo.py picks BRIDGE up from env so the fleet runner can
opt entire waves into pcap mode by exporting BRIDGE before invocation.

== #5 — Source 3 perf collector ==
collectors/perf_qemu.py shells out to ``perf stat -p <pid> -I 100 -j``
and parses the per-event JSON stream. Aggregates one row per interval
across the canonical event set (cycles/instructions/cache-{refs,misses}/
branches/branch-misses/page-faults/context-switches), computes IPC +
cache-miss rate. Tolerates missing events (``<not counted>`` /
``<not supported>``) without dropping the row, and skips cleanly when
``perf`` isn't on PATH or the process can't be attached.

EpisodeConfig.enable_perf=True opts into the collector — off by default
because perf needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN or perf_event_paranoid <= 1. When
enabled, runs as a parallel thread alongside the other collectors;
EpisodeResult.rows_perf records the count.

== #4 — Tier 4 (real-malware fetch + upload + exec) ==
tools/fetch_sample.py: pulls a sample by sha256 from MalwareBazaar
(API key from env or samples/.bazaar.token), unzips with the standard
"infected" password, verifies the resulting binary's sha256, lands at
samples/store/<sha256>. Idempotent — already-staged correct binaries
return immediately.

samples/manifest.py: Sample.binary_path(store_root) resolves to the
staged binary path, or None for mimics / not-yet-fetched real samples.

exploits/workloads.py: real_binary_workload(bytes, sample) builds a
Workload that base64-uploads the binary into the shell session via a
heredoc, decodes + chmods + execs it in the background, captures the
PID for clean stop on dormant. Per-profile pid/bin paths so concurrent
samples in the same guest don't collide.

exploits/driver.py: dispatch order is now:
  1) sample.kind == "real" + binary staged at sample_store_root
     → real_binary_workload (Tier 4)
  2) profile mimic from workloads.workload_for() (Tier 3 v2)
  3) None → driver v1 fallback yes-loop
DriverConfig.sample_store_root is the new field; run_tier3_demo.py
wires it to repo_root/samples/store. driver_setup event records
sample_sha256 so trainers can join Tier-4 episodes against the
manifest by hash.

samples/store/.gitkeep added (binaries themselves are gitignored).

Tests: 102 pass (was 86). New suites:
  tests/test_perf_qemu.py — parser + builder + perf-missing fallback
  tests/test_tier4.py     — real_binary_workload base64 round-trip,
                            stop-cmd kills pidfile, per-profile path
                            isolation, driver dispatch chooses real vs
                            mimic correctly, fetcher input validation
                            and cached-fast-path
