A native C++ binding generator (`cpp_native.nim`), the C++ counterpart of the C
and Go native paths and companion to the CBOR `cpp.nim`. It emits
`<lib>_native.hpp`: an idiomatic C++ struct + `toC`/`fromC` per `{.ffi.}` type,
and a `<Lib>Node` class whose methods marshal typed args into / read typed
struct returns out of the native ABI (`<name>` entry points + flat C structs in
`<lib>.h`) — zero serialization. Wired into genBindings under
`targetLang=cpp` + `-d:ffiMode=native`; emits the native C header alongside so
the binding is self-contained. Task: `genbindings_cpp_native`.
First cut covers scalar/string/bool/nested-struct fields (create/version/echo);
seq/Option params are `// SKIPPED`, and native typed events are next. Filename
is `_native.hpp` for now to coexist with the CBOR `.hpp` (rename is a follow-up).
Verified end-to-end: the generated example builds and round-trips a typed
EchoResponse (`make run`).

- Add the `-d:ffiMode=native|cbor|both` strdefine (default both) with
`ffiEmitNative`/`ffiEmitCbor` helpers; the C generator now emits only the
selected header(s) (`<lib>.h` and/or `<lib>_cbor.h`).
- Native C events: the native header documents each event's payload type
(`"on_echo_fired" -> const EchoEvent *`) so consumers cast the callback's msg
to the typed struct — the bare native listener already delivers it.
- nimble tasks: `genbindings_c` (both), `genbindings_c_native`,
`genbindings_c_cbor`.
Verified: native mode emits only my_timer.h, cbor only my_timer_cbor.h, both
emits both.

The Go generator previously emitted a `// SKIPPED` stub for any proc with a
struct, sequence or optional parameter, leaving Echo/Complex/Schedule
uncallable. Now that the native ABI carries those as flat C-POD structs, the Go
side can marshal them: emit an idiomatic Go struct per {.ffi.} type plus a
`toC()` that builds the matching `C.<Type>` (C.CString for strings, a C array
for seqs, present-flags for options, recursively for nested structs) and
returns cleanup funcs run via defer once the call returns. The native path
deep-copies every argument, so releasing the C buffers immediately is safe.
The C bridge already accepted struct-by-value params via the pass-through type
mapping; only the Go-side conversion and the `allSupported` gate needed work.
Bare seq/Option *top-level* params (not wrapped in a struct) remain skipped, as
the native ABI does not expose them either.
The generated package is now self-contained: the native `<lib>.h` is emitted
beside the `.go`, and the cgo directives use ${SRCDIR} so the header and the
staged library resolve without extra env vars. genbindings_go runs gofmt to
finalize column alignment.

0.2.0 carries each request as a single CBOR buffer over the exported ABI,
which is awkward for hand-written host bindings (every consumer would have
to encode CBOR and decode responses by hand). These two generators emit
ergonomic, ready-to-use bindings from the same {.ffi.} registry the C++/Rust
generators already consume.
- c.nim (targetLang=c): a self-contained <lib>.h with a small CBOR encoder,
ffi_decode_text(), and `static inline <lib>_<proc>(ctx, cb, ud, args...)`
wrappers that CBOR-encode and forward to the real export. The wrapper keeps
the export's source name but is given a distinct symbol via an __asm__ label
so the raw export's asm alias doesn't bind back to the wrapper (which would
recurse). Scalar/string params only; others fall back to the raw CBOR decl.
- go.nim (targetLang=go): a single <lib>.go cgo package that #includes the
generated <lib>.h and adds a condvar-backed response capture. This is the
key bit: 0.2.0 removed the synchronous fast-path, so a caller can no longer
read a result right after the call — the generated bridges block on the
callback, turning each async export into a blocking Go method. Also emits a
go.mod for importability.
Wired both into genBindings dispatch (targetLang "c"/"go") and added
genbindings_c / genbindings_go tasks. Both verified end-to-end against a
scalar-param test lib (build + run) and the real libwaku surface.
