feat(l1): PQXDH Protocol & Security Hardening

- Implement PQXDH handshake (RFC-0830) with stubbed KEM
  - Complete X3DH key agreement logic (Alice <-> Bob)
  - Correctly implements HKDF-SHA256 key derivation
  - Unit tests verify shared secret agreement
  - NOTE: ML-KEM-768 is currently stubbed pending liboqs integration

- Harden SoulKey Implementation
  - Replace potentially unsafe @memset with std.crypto.secureZero
  - Ensure private keys and seeds are wiped from memory

- Documentation
  - Add FFI export comments to crypto.zig

- Build System
  - specific test step for PQXDH
