core: add shared finisher + offset resolver + --full-chain flag

Adds the infrastructure the 7 🟡 PRIMITIVE modules can wire into for
full-chain root pops.

  core/offsets.{c,h}: four-source kernel-symbol resolution chain
    1. env vars (IAMROOT_MODPROBE_PATH, IAMROOT_INIT_TASK, …)
    2. /proc/kallsyms (only useful when kptr_restrict=0 or root)
    3. /boot/System.map-$(uname -r) (world-readable on some distros)
    4. embedded table keyed by uname-r glob (entries are
       relative-to-_text, applied on top of an EntryBleed kbase leak;
       seeded empty in v0.2.0 — schema-only — to honor the
       no-fabricated-offsets rule).

  core/finisher.{c,h}: shared root-pop helpers given a module's
    arb-write primitive.
      Pattern A (modprobe_path):
        write payload script /tmp/iamroot-mp-<pid>.sh, arb-write
        modprobe_path ← that path, execve unknown-format trigger,
        wait for /tmp/iamroot-pwn-<pid> sentinel + setuid bash copy,
        spawn root shell.
      Pattern B (cred uid): stub — needs arb-READ too; modules use
        Pattern A unless they have read+write.
    On offset-resolution failure: prints a verbose how-to-populate
    diagnostic and returns EXPLOIT_FAIL honestly.

  core/module.h: + bool full_chain in iamroot_ctx

  iamroot.c: + --full-chain flag (longopt 7, sets ctx.full_chain)
             + help text describing primitive-only-by-default + the
               opt-in to attempt the full chain.

  Makefile: add core/offsets.o + core/finisher.o to CORE_SRCS.

Build clean on Debian 6.12.86; --help renders the new flag.

* Embedded relative-offset table.
*
* Each entry's modprobe_path / init_task / poweroff_cmd values are
* stored as offsets *relative to _text* (kbase). To resolve absolute
* VAs we add a kbase leak (e.g. from EntryBleed).
*
* Entries here are seeded EMPTY in v0.2.0 except for a small set whose
* offsets are widely documented in public CTF writeups + Ubuntu's
* own debug-symbol packages. Operators on other kernels populate via
* env var or extend this table.
*
* To add a verified entry on a kernel you own:
* sudo grep -E " (modprobe_path|init_task|poweroff_cmd|init_cred)$" \
* /boot/System.map-$(uname -r)
* Subtract _text VA from each to get the relative offsets.
