/// Runs a Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) electromagnetic simulation via bincode serialization.
///
/// FDTD solves Maxwell's equations ∇×E = -∂B/∂t and ∇×H = ∂D/∂t + J using a staggered
/// Yee lattice grid, advancing the electric field Ez and magnetic field components in time.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `buffer` - A bincode-encoded buffer containing `FdtdParameters` with:
/// - `width`, `height`: Grid dimensions
/// - `dx`, `dy`: Spatial discretization steps
/// - `dt`: Time step size (must satisfy Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy stability condition)
/// - `steps`: Number of time steps to simulate
/// - `source_x`, `source_y`: Position of electromagnetic source
/// - `source_frequency`: Angular frequency ω of the source
///
/// # Returns
///
/// A bincode-encoded buffer containing `FfiResult<Array2<f64>, String>` with either:
/// - `ok`: Final Ez field as a 2D array
/// - `err`: Error message if computation failed or no snapshots were produced
///
/// # 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.
