[feat](trx-ftx): add pure Rust FTx decoder crate

Replace the C FFI-based trx-ft8 with a pure Rust implementation
supporting FT8, FT4, and FT2 protocols. Eliminates cc/libc build
dependencies and all unsafe FFI code while providing the same
Ft8Decoder/Ft8DecodeResult public API.

+# trx-ftx: Pure Rust FTx Decoder
+
+## Goal
+
+Replace `trx-ft8` (C FFI wrapper around ft8_lib + custom FT2 code) with a pure Rust
+implementation. The new `trx-ftx` crate provides the exact same public API
+(`Ft8Decoder`, `Ft8DecodeResult`) so it is a drop-in replacement.
+
+## Why
+
+- Eliminates `cc`/`libc` build dependencies and `unsafe` FFI
+- Better tooling integration (rust-analyzer, clippy, miri)
+- Easier maintenance: one language, one build system
+- Estimated ~5,350 lines of Rust vs ~7,900 lines of C
+
+## Crate Structure
+
+```

+
+## Dependencies
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+rustfft = "6"           # SIMD-optimized FFT
+realfft = "3"           # Real-to-complex FFT wrapper
+num-complex = "0.4"     # Complex32 type

+[dev-dependencies]
+hound = "3"             # WAV file reading for integration tests
+```
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Foundation (no FFT, no inter-module deps)
+1. `protocol.rs` - FtxProtocol enum with timing/parameter methods
+2. `constants.rs` - All lookup tables as const arrays
+3. `crc.rs` - CRC-14 compute/extract/add
+4. `text.rs` - Character tables, string utilities
+5. `ldpc.rs` - BP + sum-product decoders with fast tanh/atanh
+6. `encode.rs` - LDPC encoding + tone generation
+7. `message.rs` - Pack/unpack for all FTx message types
+8. `callsign_hash.rs` - Hash table for callsign dedup/lookup
+
+### Phase 2: DSP (FFT-dependent)
+9. `monitor.rs` - Waterfall engine using realfft/rustfft
+
+### Phase 3: Decode Pipeline
+10. `decode.rs` - Candidate search + FT8/FT4/FT2 likelihood extraction
+11. `ft2/` - FT2-specific multi-pass pipeline:
+    - `downsample.rs` - Freq-domain bandpass + IFFT
+    - `sync.rs` - 2D sync scoring with Costas waveforms
+    - `bitmetrics.rs` - Multi-scale bit metrics (1/2/4-symbol)
+    - `osd.rs` - OSD-1/OSD-2 bit-flip search
+
+### Phase 4: Public API
+12. `decoder.rs` - Ft8Decoder struct (matches trx-ft8 API exactly)
+13. `lib.rs` - Re-exports
+
+### Phase 5: Migration
+14. Convert `trx-ft8` to thin re-export of `trx-ftx`
+15. Delete C sources: `ft8_wrapper.c`, `ft2_ldpc.c`, `build.rs`
+

+
+## Public API (matches trx-ft8 exactly)
+
+```rust
+pub struct Ft8DecodeResult {
+    pub text: String,
+    pub snr_db: f32,
+    pub dt_s: f32,
+    pub freq_hz: f32,
+}
+
+pub struct Ft8Decoder { .. }
+
+impl Ft8Decoder {
+    pub fn new(sample_rate: u32) -> Result<Self, String>;
+    pub fn new_ft4(sample_rate: u32) -> Result<Self, String>;
+    pub fn new_ft2(sample_rate: u32) -> Result<Self, String>;
+    pub fn block_size(&self) -> usize;

+    pub fn process_block(&mut self, block: &[f32]);
+    pub fn decode_if_ready(&mut self, max_results: usize) -> Vec<Ft8DecodeResult>;
+}
+```
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- Unit tests per module: CRC round-trip, LDPC recovery, message pack/unpack
+- Integration tests: decode WAV files from `external/ft8_lib/test/wav/`
+- Compatibility test: `ft2_uses_distinct_block_size` (FT4=576, FT2=288, window=45000)

+//! OSD-1/OSD-2 CRC-guided bit-flip decoder for the (174,91) LDPC code.
+//!
+//! This is a port of `ft2_ldpc.c` which implements Ordered Statistics Decoding
+//! with configurable depth (ndeep 0-6). The decoder first runs iterative
+//! belief-propagation (BP), then falls back to OSD refinement using the
+//! accumulated LLR sums from BP iterations.
+//!
+//! The OSD algorithm works by:
+//! 1. Sorting codeword bits by LLR reliability
+//! 2. Gaussian elimination to put the generator matrix in systematic form
+//!    (with respect to the most reliable bits)
+//! 3. Exhaustive search over bit-flip patterns of increasing weight
+//! 4. Pattern hashing (OSD-2) to efficiently search two-bit-flip corrections
