drjones 0f9e04f5f6 Add universal forge, fusion disguise, remote deploy, and stability fixes.
Ship cross-platform spread kits and fusion ZIPs with per-OS launchers, one-liner dropper endpoints, Windows file disguise, and a large batch of wiring/bug fixes so agents connect reliably across a LAN test fleet.
