chore: add migration/ bundle for cross-machine setup

Browse Source 
Bundles state that lives OUTSIDE the xenia-rs repo so a fresh clone on
another machine can be brought up to identical configuration via
migration/setup.sh:

  - claude-memory/             ~/.claude/projects/-home-fabi-RE-Project-Sylpheed/memory/
                               (103 files, 1.1 MB - MEMORY.md + every
                                project_xenia_rs_*.md from audits
                                addis_signext through audit-058)
  - project-root/dot-claude/   <project-root>/.claude/settings.json
                               (Stop hook + permissions)
  - project-root/ppc-manual/   <project-root>/ppc-manual/
                               (PowerPC reference docs, 397 files, 3.7 MB)
  - project-root/run-canary.sh <project-root>/run-canary.sh
  - README.md                  Human-readable setup checklist
  - setup.sh                   Idempotent installer (also reclones
                               xenia-canary at pinned HEAD 6de80dffe)
  - MANIFEST.md                Per-file mapping + per-file-not-bundled
                               restoration recipe

Excluded from bundle (not shippable via git):
  - Sylpheed ISO (7.8 GB; copyright; manual copy required)
  - sylpheed.db (395 MB; regenerable from XEX via analysis tooling)
  - target/ build artifacts (rebuild on target)
  - audit-runs probe firehoses (.log/.stdout/.stderr ~11 GB; rerun if needed)
  - audit-runs memory dumps (.bin ~4.5 GB; rerun audit-026/027/029 if needed)
  - xenia-canary checkout (setup.sh reclones from
    git.mc02.dev/fabi/Xenia-Canary.git at HEAD 6de80dffe)

# `vmrglb` — Vector Merge Low Byte
> **Category:** [VMX (Altivec)](../categories/vmx.md) · **Form:** [VX](../forms/VX.md) · **Opcode:** `0x1000010c`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `vmrglb` | `vmrglb` | — | Vector Merge Low Byte |
## Syntax
```asm
vmrglb [VD], [VA], [VB]
```
## Encoding
### `vmrglb` — form `VX`
- **Opcode word:** `0x1000010c`
- **Primary opcode (bits 0–5):** `4`
- **Extended opcode:** `268`
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0–5 | `OPCD` | primary opcode (4) |
| 6–10 | `VRT/VD` | destination vector register |
| 11–15 | `VRA/VA` | source A vector register |
| 16–20 | `VRB/VB` | source B vector register |
| 21–31 | `XO` | extended opcode (11 bits) |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `VA` | vmrglb: read | Source A vector register. |
| `VB` | vmrglb: read | Source B vector register. |
| `VD` | vmrglb: write | Destination vector register. |
## Register Effects
### `vmrglb`
- **Reads (always):** `VA`, `VB`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `VD`
- **Writes (conditional):** _none_
## Status-Register Effects
_No condition-register or status-register effects._
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
; Pseudocode derives directly from the xenia-rs interpreter
; arm (see Implementation References). Operation semantics:
; - Read source operands from the fields listed under Operands.
; - Apply the arithmetic / logical / memory action described
; in the Description field above.
; - Write results to the destination register(s); update any
; status bits enumerated under Status-Register Effects.
; Consult the IBM AIX reference link under IBM Reference for
; canonical PPC-style pseudocode where xenia's expression is
; terse.
```
## C Translation Example
```c
/* C translation: the xenia-rs interpreter arm below in */
/* Implementation References is the authoritative semantic */
/* snapshot. Translate it line-by-line: */
/* - ctx.gpr[N] -> r[N] (or f[]/v[] for FPRs/VRs) */
/* - mem.read_u*/write_u* -> mem_read_u*_be / mem_write_u*_be */
/* - ctx.update_cr_signed(fld, v) -> update_cr_signed(fld, v) */
/* - ctx.xer_ca / xer_ov / xer_so -> xer.CA / xer.OV / xer.SO */
/* The Register Effects and Status-Register Effects tables above */
/* enumerate every side effect a faithful translation must emit. */
```

## Special Cases & Edge Conditions
- **Interleave the low (least-significant) eight bytes** of two vectors: `VD = {VA[8], VB[8], VA[9], VB[9], …, VA[15], VB[15]}`. "Low" in PPC big-endian terms means the eight bytes at the higher byte addresses after `stvx`.
- **Pairs with [`vmrghb`](vmrghb.md).** Together they cover all 32 input bytes — one `vmrghb` plus one `vmrglb` is the standard 16-byte "interleave-then-store" pattern.
- **Common usage.** Second half of an AoS-from-SoA transpose for 8-bit channels (the high half is produced by `vmrghb`, the low half by `vmrglb`).
- **No `VSCR` interaction, no XER, no exceptions.** Pure permute.
- **Aliasing legal.** `vmrglb v3, v3, v3` doubles each low byte of `v3`.
- **No VMX128 sibling.**
- **Equivalent to x86 `_mm_unpacklo_epi8`** modulo lane-numbering convention.
## Related Instructions
- [`vmrghb`](vmrghb.md) — the "high half" mirror.
- [`vmrglh`](vmrglh.md), [`vmrglw`](vmrglw.md) — low-half merge at half / word width.
- [`vperm`](vperm.md), [`vsldoi`](vsldoi.md) — programmable / static permute primitives.
- [`vupklsb`](vupklsb.md) — sign-extending unpack of the low half.
