/// Runs a 2D Ising model Monte Carlo simulation using the Metropolis algorithm via bincode serialization.
///
/// The Ising model with Hamiltonian H = -J∑⟨i,j⟩sᵢsⱼ - h∑ᵢsᵢ describes phase transitions
/// in magnetic systems. The simulation uses Metropolis-Hastings sampling to evolve spin
/// configurations toward thermal equilibrium.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `buffer` - A bincode-encoded buffer containing `IsingParameters` with:
/// - `width`, `height`: Grid dimensions
/// - `temperature`: Temperature T in units of `J/k_B`
/// - `mc_steps`: Number of Monte Carlo sweeps to perform
///
/// # Returns
///
/// A bincode-encoded buffer containing `FfiResult<IsingOutput, String>` with either:
/// - `ok`: Object containing:
/// - `grid`: Final spin configuration (±1 values)
/// - `magnetization`: Average magnetization M = ⟨∑ᵢsᵢ⟩/N
/// - `err`: Error message if computation failed
///
/// # 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.
