"""In-guest telemetry agent — runs INSIDE the VM.

Writes one JSON-lines row per tick to a virtio-serial port that the
host has wired up as ``cis490.guest.agent``. The host-side collector
(`collectors.guest_agent`) reads these rows and stamps them with the
host's monotonic clock before persisting to ``telemetry-guest.jsonl``.

Stdlib only — no `psutil`, no extra deps to bake into the guest. Every
field is read from /proc on the guest, so this works on busybox-based
Alpine, on Cirros, and on Metasploitable2 unchanged.

Wire path inside the guest:
    /dev/virtio-ports/cis490.guest.agent

The host side opens the matching unix socket on the hypervisor.
The protocol is intentionally trivial: the agent emits newline-
delimited JSON; the host emits nothing back. One direction.

This source is the **deployable** side — every row is tagged
``available_in_deployment: true``. See docs/threat-model.md.
