Neuroembryogenesis - Brain Development from Genome.

This module orchestrates the development of a functional connectome (phenotype)
from a genome blueprint (genotype). It coordinates:

1. **Corticogenesis**: Creating cortical area structures
2. **Voxelogenesis**: Establishing 3D spatial framework
3. **Neurogenesis**: Generating neurons within cortical areas
4. **Synaptogenesis**: Forming synaptic connections between neurons

The process is biologically inspired by embryonic brain development.
