Drive the compositor from a separate process, proving the pipeline end to end.
- runtime.display: a Layer handle (fill / blitTile / configure / damage /
destroy), createLayer, and a color(r,g,b) helper that caches the mode and
packs via protocol.pack. Coordinates are signed over the u32 wire fields
(@bitCast both ways), so a layer may sit or move partly off-screen.
- system/services/display-demo: the input-source analog for the compositor — a
full-screen wallpaper, a rectangle it slides back and forth (moved by
configure each frame, so the damage-driven present repaints old + new), and a
cursor. Presents in a loop paced by runtime.time. Wired into build + initrd.
Fix this surfaced: protocol.message_maximum was 4096, but the kernel caps every
IPC message at MESSAGE_MAXIMUM = 256, so replyWait rejected the oversized receive
buffer with -E2BIG and the serve loop had been spinning since D2 (invisibly, as
those gates matched init-time heartbeats). Set it to 256; blit_tile is now
explicitly a small-tile path (larger bitmaps are the deferred shm surface).
Gate: `python3 test/qemu_test.py display-demo` — the demo drives frames of
motion through the layer client API and logs `display-demo: ok`. Regression:
zig build test, display (D1), display-service (D2/D3), and default zig build.
