Hoist max_cpus into danos (root.zig), raise it to 128, and stop reserving a static [max_cpus][16 KiB] IST array. Only the BSP's IST stack is static (needed before the allocator); each AP's is heap-allocated when it comes online. Shrinks the kernel from ~1.1 MB to ~139 KiB in ReleaseSmall.
Adds paging.isExecutable and arch.trampolinePage; the smp case now asserts the frame is zeroed and non-executable after bring-up. Teeth-checked against a no-op disarm.
Arm the low frame (copy blob, make executable) only while a core climbs, then zero it and restore RW+NX; the frame stays reserved so cores can be re-woken. startSecondary is one re-runnable attempt; boot retries a non-responding core 3x. Validated the retry path by forcing a first-attempt failure.
