A "kitchen sink" {.ffi.} object spanning every supported field shape — all
integer widths, both floats, bool, string, sequences (scalars / strings /
floats / nested structs), Option/Maybe, and a nested struct by value — is sent
in as a C-POD and returned as a typed C-POD, then checked field-for-field
against the Nim-native result.
This is the native-path complement to the existing CBOR coverage (test_serial
for the codec, test_wire_compat for the bytes): it pins nimToPod ->
*NativeExport -> clonePod/podToNim of the typed return for the whole type
matrix. Compiling also proves the native-POD codegen accepts every type. Passes
under orc + refc and clean under ASAN.
