v4.0.0: codec 2.60.4 security release, --pq-box sealed-box mode, F-16 fix

Major release. Highlights:

- Codec: vendored VaptVupt codec moves to canonical 2.60.4 security
  release. Fixes a high-severity OOB heap write in the AVX2 decode fast
  path (reachable on a valid stream sized to exactly content_size, both
  tail variants). Brings CBMC-formally-verified BCJ filters with
  automatic ELF/PE/Mach-O detection. Compressed output stays
  byte-identical (ratio gate Δ 0.00%); wire format unchanged at v1.6.
- New --pq-box sealed-box recipient mode (vendored libpqvaptvupt 0.6.0):
  ML-KEM-768 + X25519 combined via HKDF-SHA256 with domain separation,
  AES-256-CTR + HMAC-SHA256 EtM. Legacy --pq and --pq-sdk stay readable.
- F-16: discloses and fixes a pre-existing data-loss defect in the
  <= 3.8.0 in-tree BCJ encoder. Full back-compat matrix decodes
  byte-exact under 4.0.0; every readable pre-4.0 archive remains readable.

Repository hygiene:
- Sync full 4.0.0 source tree (codec, crypto, SDK, GUI, packaging, tests).
- Remove internal scratch files (PROMPT.md, FORMAL_AUDIT_PROMPT.md)
  and superseded version-specific docs (INTEGRATION_PROTOCOL_2.60.4.md,
  docs/FINDINGS-2.x.md) and a stray test binary.
- Refresh README download/install section to real 4.0.0 release assets;
  bump version badge to 4.0.0.
- Add .gitignore for build outputs (keeps vendored prebuilt libraries).

+# F-02 (Zupt 2.2.4): the previous version flipped a byte at len-50 for
+# path B. SDK-PQ archive sizes vary by 1-2 bytes per run (ciphertext
+# encoding), so len-50 occasionally landed inside the *index* region
+# (between footer.index_offset and the trailing 32-byte footer), which
+# is NOT covered by the per-block HMAC. Roughly 10% of runs would let
+# the tampered file extract successfully and the suite would flake.
+#
+# Fix: tamper at absolute offsets known to be inside the encrypted
+# body of any non-empty SDK-PQ archive. With "data\n" (5 bytes) as
+# input, the archive is ~1769-1771 bytes and the body runs from
+# offset ~80 to ~1610. Offsets 200 (early-body) and 500 (mid-body)
+# are both deterministically authenticated.
+#
+# The unauthenticated index region is now tracked as F-02b (deferred
+# to v2.2.5 format-v1.5).
