//! Sources — where bytes come from. Pluggable by design; trusted by nobody
//! (DD-003).
//!
//! A source can *obtain* bytes: a manifest by layer name or digest, a blob by
//! digest. It has no voice in whether those bytes are *accepted* — signature
//! and digest verification run against the trust root after every fetch, so
//! swapping the source can change availability, never a verdict. The install
//! pipeline (`crate::install`) enforces this by construction: nothing a
//! `LayerSource` returns reaches the core without passing the same checks.

/// UNTRUSTED discovery: does `bytes` look like a manifest for `id`, either
/// raw or wrapped in a DSSE envelope? Sources use this to answer name/digest
/// lookups; it grants nothing — the install pipeline re-verifies signature
