MechaCat02 e6d43a23ac chore: add migration/ bundle for cross-machine setup
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)

## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `vmhraddshs` | `vmhraddshs` | — | Vector Multiply-High Round and Add Signed Signed Half Word Saturate |
## Syntax
```asm
vmhraddshs [VD], [VA], [VB], [VC]
```
## Encoding
### `vmhraddshs` — form `VA`
- **Opcode word:** `0x10000021`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `4`
- **Extended opcode:** `33`
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 05 | `OPCD` | primary opcode (4) |
| 610 | `VRT` | destination vector register |
| 1115 | `VRA` | source A |
| 1620 | `VRB` | source B |
| 2125 | `VRC` | source C / shift |
| 2631 | `XO` | extended opcode (6 bits) |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `VA` | vmhraddshs: read | Source A vector register. |
| `VB` | vmhraddshs: read | Source B vector register. |
| `VC` | vmhraddshs: read | Source C vector register / 3-bit selector. |
| `VD` | vmhraddshs: write | Destination vector register. |
| `VSCR` | vmhraddshs: write | Vector Status and Control Register (NJ/SAT bits). |
## Register Effects
### `vmhraddshs`
- **Reads (always):** `VA`, `VB`, `VC`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `VD`, `VSCR`
- **Writes (conditional):** _none_
## Status-Register Effects
- `vmhraddshs`: **VSCR[SAT]** may be stickied on saturating vector operations.
## 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
- **Rounded Q15 fixed-point multiply-add, saturating.** Eight half-word lanes; per lane:
```
prod = (int16(VA[i]) * int16(VB[i]) + 0x4000) >> 15 ; round half-up
VD[i] = clamp(prod + int16(VC[i]), -32768, +32767)
```
Identical to [`vmhaddshs`](vmhaddshs.md) except for the `+0x4000` rounding bias before the shift.
- **Half-up rounding to even-magnitude.** The `+0x4000` bias rounds the discarded low 15 bits *toward* the nearest representable value, with ties broken away from zero. For most DSP work this is the desired behaviour and gives lower mean error than the truncating variant.
- **`VSCR[SAT]` is sticky-set** if the final sum overflows `int16`. The rounding bias can itself push a lane that was at `+32767` past the cap — important for tight Q15 audio where the truncating form might not have saturated.
- **Same `0x8000 * 0x8000 >> 15` gotcha** as `vmhaddshs`: the product is `+32768.5` rounded to `+32769`, which still saturates.
- **Big-endian half lanes.** Lane 0 is the most-significant half.
- **No XER changes, no exceptions.**
- **No VMX128 sibling.**
- **Common usage.** High-quality Q15 audio filter taps where round-toward-nearest is preferred over truncate-toward-zero.
## Related Instructions
- [`vmhaddshs`](vmhaddshs.md) — same op without the rounding bias.
- [`vmladduhm`](vmladduhm.md) — same shape, modulo (no shift, no saturate), unsigned.
- [`vmsumshs`](vmsumshs.md), [`vmsumshm`](vmsumshm.md) — multiply-sum across pairs of lanes.
- [`vaddshs`](vaddshs.md), [`vmaxsh`](vmaxsh.md) — saturating add and max at same lane width.
