//! Joint constraint carrier: buffer ownership, registration, and the
//! device-resident label-feasibility solve stage.
//!
//! The carrier owns every solver buffer: score, domain, constraint and
//! output memory is allocated by the xlog device runtime and exported
//! outward, never imported from an external DLPack producer. Strict
//! launch recorders therefore record every carrier column (a runtime
//! block is always present), and schema registration is once-per
//! session with a typed refusal on duplicates.
//!
//! The solve stage runs entirely on device: catalog-bound signature
//! masks upload once cold-path after registration, and the existential
//! label-feasibility kernel launches through a strict recorder with
//! fuel charged before the launch — beyond fuel the solve refuses
//! typed without touching the device.
