feat(cloak): egress SYN-ACK mangler + T2/T3 probe-response synthesizer

In-decky-netns NFQUEUE rewriter (window/option-order/IP-ID) and raw-socket
synthesizer for nmap probes Linux drops but the target OS answers (T2/T3),
driven by os_fingerprint.OS_MANGLE. Packet-shaping logic is pure and unit-tested
offline; scapy/netfilterqueue import lazily in the runtime loops. Entry:
python -m decnet.cloak (run by the base container; CAP_NET_ADMIN).

"""
Egress SYN-ACK mangler — rewrites the TCP/IP option shape sysctl can't reach.
Split so the packet-shaping logic is pure and unit-testable without scapy, root,
or a live NFQUEUE:
- build_synack_options() / next_ipid() : pure, tested offline.
- _rewrite() : mutates a scapy packet (lazy import).
- run() : the NFQUEUE loop (needs CAP_NET_ADMIN).
scapy/netfilterqueue are imported lazily inside the runtime functions, mirroring
decnet/prober/tcpfp.py, so importing this module is cheap and side-effect-free.
