Port Douglas Vanderveer's manifest-driven macOS/Linux overlay discovery onto the current cache index and exact-dispatch loader. Validate both filename key fields, preserve ABI cleanup and rescan idempotence, and cover the POSIX primitives with a real shared-library fixture.

Adapt only the fail-closed overlay lifecycle checks from mstan/psxrecomp#16 commit e6809ccf7d. Add a focused structural regression test and record the excluded dirty-interpreter and game/runtime work.

- psx_cyc.h / psx_cycles.c: _BitScanForward/_BitScanReverse shims for
__builtin_ctz/__builtin_clz under _MSC_VER
- full_function_emitter.cpp / main_psx.cpp: emit a portable .CRT$XCU
init-pointer instead of GCC-only __attribute__((constructor)) in
generated dispatch/game code
- main.cpp: declare cross-language globals extern "C" so MSVC links
them against their C definitions (no-op for GCC/Clang)

Make the repo approachable for outside contributors and an IDE integrator:
- New contributor docs:
- docs/EXECUTION_MODEL.md — semi-technical tour of the static / native-overlay
/ interpreter execution model and how coverage gaps get plugged.
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md — component-level view (recompiler, runtime, LLE+HLE
BIOS, overlay backend static->gcc->tcc, renderers, oracle model).
- docs/BUILDING.md — accurate dependency table, per-platform prereqs, build
steps, and the submodule + local-junction framework-linking setup.
- CONTRIBUTING.md — distilled core rules, verification expectations, PR flow.
- Declutter root: move ~14 internal dev-logs into docs/internal/ (history
preserved via rename) with an index README; repoint CLAUDE.md references.
- README: correct build recipe, LLE+HLE + overlay-backend summary, links to the
new docs.
- code_provider.c: update the stale backend comment to the real static->gcc->tcc
resolution (dead SLJIT.md reference removed).
- config_schema.md: drop the obsolete "once Phase A2/A3 ships --config" note.
