Claude (auto-RE) 6a41525c41 re: generalize the two capture tools beyond weapons
idxd_tokens took the sub-record type list as an argument already but still
hard-filtered entries to those declaring a `Weapon_*` id, so it could not be
pointed at another schema. Filter on the requested type names instead -- it now
splits `EnumUnit` (Generic/Maneuver/Shield/Explosion/Frame/Turret/...) too.

gmem: honour $GMEM_FILE. `cp --sparse=always /dev/shm/xenia_memory_* snap.bin`
takes ~2 s and reads identically, which matters because a running Canary pegs
every core under lavapipe and makes repeated live reads stall unpredictably.

Groundwork for the craft (UNIT) stats. Not a finding yet: in menus only the
player craft's *name* is resident -- the flight-model object is not instantiated
until a mission loads, so that needs an in-mission snapshot.

"""Read the *live* guest memory of a running Xenia Canary.
Canary backs the whole guest address space with a single shared-memory file,
`/dev/shm/xenia_memory_<pid-ish>`, so the guest's RAM is readable from the host
with no debugger, no emulator patch and no pause: open the file, seek, read.
The file is one flat image of Xenia's *physical* backing store; guest virtual
addresses map into it through Xenia's fixed table (memory.cc `map_info`).
`va_to_off()` implements that table, so callers work in guest VAs.
Sub-commands
find <pattern> search every allocated extent, print guest VAs
read <va> [len] hexdump guest memory
words <va> [n] dump n big-endian u32 / f32 pairs
`<pattern>` is a python literal-ish string: plain text, or `hex:0011aabb`.
Numbers accept 0x form. The scan uses SEEK_DATA so the ~4.6 GB of sparse holes
cost nothing.
