Captures the "super FFI" roadmap (future-work.md) and a concrete design for item #1, typed host callbacks via {.ffiHost.} (design-host-callbacks.md), including the per-language host-consumption sketches and the non-blocking FFI-thread contract the generated wrappers must enforce. The design is grounded in the existing threading model: a host answering from its own thread cannot complete a chronos Future directly, so the completion path mirrors the request path in reverse — enqueue + ThreadSignalPtr signal, drained and completed on the FFI (event-loop) thread.
