/// Computes a geodesic trajectory in curved spacetime using general relativity via bincode serialization.
///
/// Integrates the geodesic equation d²xᵘ/dτ² + Γᵘᵥᵨ(dxᵥ/dτ)(dxᵨ/dτ) = 0 where Γᵘᵥᵨ are
/// Christoffel symbols of the metric tensor, modeling particle motion in curved spacetime
/// (e.g., near a black hole using Schwarzschild metric).
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `buffer` - A bincode-encoded buffer containing `GeodesicParameters` with:
///   - `mass`: Central mass M (e.g., black hole mass)
///   - `r0`, `phi0`: Initial radial and angular coordinates
///   - `v_r`, `v_phi`: Initial radial and angular velocities
///   - `dt`: Time step for integration
///   - `steps`: Number of integration steps
///
/// # Returns
///
/// A bincode-encoded buffer containing `FfiResult<Vec<(f64, f64)>, String>` with
/// the geodesic path as (r, φ) coordinate pairs.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// This function is unsafe because it receives a raw bincode buffer that must be
/// valid and properly encoded.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// This function is unsafe because it dereferences raw pointers as part of the FFI boundary.
/// The caller must ensure:
/// 1. All pointer arguments are valid and point to initialized memory.
/// 2. The memory layout of passed structures matches the expected C-ABI layout.
/// 3. Any pointers returned by this function are managed according to the API's ownership rules.
