Module client 

The ferraus side of the host protocol: spawns one host process per plugin instance, sends framed JSON requests, moves audio through a memory-mapped temp file, and enforces the watchdog. A crash or timeout becomes ErrorKind::Plugin (exit code 7) naming the plugin and its path; the calling process is never affected.
