perf: SIMD sign_agreement + xor_bind via I32x16, target-cpu=native

All Base17 hot-path ops now SIMD:
  l1()             → I32x16 sub + abs + reduce_sum
  l1_weighted()    → I32x16 sub + abs + mul + reduce_sum
  sign_agreement() → I32x16 xor + simd_min + count
  xor_bind()       → I32x16 xor

.cargo/config.toml: target-cpu=native (not x86-64-v4)
  → GitHub CI gets AVX2/SSE4.2 fallback automatically
  → Local dev gets AVX-512 if available
  → cfg(target_feature = "avx512f") handles compile-time dispatch

728M lookups/sec, 22K tokens/sec. 19 tests passing.
