Dario LipicarandClaude Opus 4.7 42a8b9ed5c feat: LIDL interface IR — --header-to-lidl frontend + --dep backend (#77)
* feat: LIDL as the interface IR — --header-to-lidl frontend + --dep backend

Make the generator pivot around LIDL so every binding flows source -> LIDL ->
C++ (and a future Rust module plugs into the same backend via Rust -> LIDL):

- --header-to-lidl <impl.h> --impl-class X --metadata m.json -o out.lidl: the
  standalone C++ frontend. Runs parseImplHeader -> lidlSerialize and emits ONLY
  the <name>.lidl contract (no Qt glue/dispatch), so a module can publish a
  cheap `lidl` artifact without compiling its plugin.
- --dep <name>=<lidl>: the LIDL backend for concrete dependencies. Reuses the
  interface-wrapper path with BindMode::Static, emitting the name-baked
  modules().<dep> wrapper from the dep's published LIDL. Deduped vs each other
  and vs --interface names.
- generateInterfaceWrappers gains a BindMode param (default Bound); --interface
  stays Bound, --dep is Static. parseInterfaceFlags generalized to
  parseSpecFlags(args, flag) for both --interface and --dep.

The umbrella already emits a `<dep>` member per metadata dependency, so no
umbrella change is needed.

* address review: strip leading '@' in --header-to-lidl paths; fix doc comment

- --header-to-lidl now strips a leading '@' from the header/metadata/output
  path args (matches legacy_main; some build drivers pass @/abs/path).
- Remove the stale "bound wrapper" doc comment above generateInterfaceWrappers
  (it now generates Static dep wrappers too via BindMode).
