Bundle pinned offline dependencies, remove libcork/libipset and submodule requirements, and add portable runtime helpers with relocatable static/shared library installations.
Add Clang static build validation for Linux/musl, macOS and Windows, real TCP/UDP and SIP003 interoperability coverage, and recorded performance tradeoffs. All 21 hosted checks pass at the reviewed PR head 8d504e6218.
Boot a minimal Alpine Linux guest in QEMU with iptables, ss-redir, and
ss-nat to verify the full transparent proxy chain: iptables REDIRECT →
ss-redir → ss-server (host) → internet. The host-built ss-redir binary
and its shared library dependencies are copied into the Alpine rootfs,
avoiding static linking issues. Uses QEMU user-mode networking with KVM
acceleration when available. Linux-only CI step with 8-minute timeout.
