b7b76da46e Fix encoder and decoder - working LDPC simulation
- Fixed cyclic shift convention (QC-LDPC P_s is left shift, not right)
- Fixed encoder to solve rows sequentially (row 0 first for p1, then 1-6)
- Fixed decoder to only gather connected columns per CN (staircase has dc=2-3)
- Fixed LLR sign convention: positive = bit 0 more likely
- Decoder validates at lam_s >= 4 photons/slot (~90% frame success)

b93a6f5769 Initial LDPC optical decoder project scaffold
Rate-1/8 QC-LDPC decoder for photon-starved optical communication.
Target: Efabless chipIgnite (SkyWater 130nm, Caravel harness).

- RTL: decoder top, core (layered min-sum), Wishbone interface
- Python behavioral model with Poisson channel simulation
- 7x8 base matrix, Z=32, n=256, k=32
