feat(L13-flagship): MultiModule no-spoofing theorem (A6, PROOF-NEEDS §P0.5)
Closes the flagship theorem from PROOF-NEEDS §P0.5 — the paper's killer feature. Adds a strengthened propositional layer to MultiModule.idr alongside the existing data declarations (none rewritten): * FieldMatches f s — structural (name, type) membership witness. * SchemaSub imp exp — fieldwise-subset preorder on schemas. * ModuleCompat from to imp exp — module- and schema-indexed compatibility relation. Preorder proven: schemaSubRefl : (s : Schema) -> SchemaSub s s schemaSubTrans : SchemaSub x y -> SchemaSub y z -> SchemaSub x z compatRefl : (m : ModuleId) -> (s : Schema) -> ModuleCompat m m s s compatTrans : ModuleCompat m1 m2 s1 s2 -> ModuleCompat m2 m3 s2 s3 -> ModuleCompat m1 m3 s1 s3 Flagship: noSpoofing : ModuleCompat from to imp exp -> (f : Field) -> FieldMatches f imp -> FieldMatches f exp Plus noTypeSpoofing as a named (name, ty) specialisation. The proof is not vacuous — the work-horse lemma fieldMatchesLift walks the SchemaSub witness field-by-field. A worked Rust-exports / ReScript-imports example (4-field export, 2-field subset import) constructs a live certificate and applies noSpoofing to extract the export-side field witness. Zero believe_me / assert_total / postulate / sorry; %default total preserved; panic-attack clean. PROOF-NEEDS.md §P0.5 marked DONE; LEVEL-STATUS.md MultiModule row updated with the new theorem inventory. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

**P0.5. MultiModule.idr — CompatCertificate reflexivity + transitivity

cross-module memory compatibility. Prove:

172+
173+
The strengthened propositional layer was added to MultiModule.idr alongside
174+
the existing data declarations (none of which were rewritten). The new
175+
relation `ModuleCompat` is indexed by both modules *and* schemas, which
176+
avoids the "compatCommute implicit bidirectionality" question: the schema
177+
order pins the direction of the subschema witness.
178+
179+
Proved:
180+
181+
```
182+
compatRefl : (m : ModuleId) -> (s : Schema) -> ModuleCompat m m s s
183+
compatTrans : ModuleCompat m1 m2 s1 s2 -> ModuleCompat m2 m3 s2 s3
184+
-> ModuleCompat m1 m3 s1 s3
185+
```
186+
187+
plus the flagship no-spoofing theorem:
188+
189+
```
190+
noSpoofing : ModuleCompat from to imp exp
191+
-> (f : Field) -> FieldMatches f imp
192+
-> FieldMatches f exp
193+
```
194+
195+
and a type-preservation corollary `noTypeSpoofing` at a known
196+
`(name, ty)` pair. The work-horse lemma is `fieldMatchesLift :
197+
FieldMatches f y -> SchemaSub y z -> FieldMatches f z`, which walks
198+
the SchemaSub witness field-by-field — so the proof is not vacuous.
199+
200+
Sanity-checked with a worked Rust-exports / ReScript-imports example
201+
(4-field export `[id: U64, age: U8, score: F32, banned: WBool]`,
202+
2-field subset import `[id: U64, age: U8]`) that constructs a live
203+
`ModuleCompat` certificate and applies `noSpoofing` to it. Zero
204+
`believe_me` / `assert_total` / `postulate` / `sorry`; `%default
205+
total` preserved.
206+
207+
`compatCommute` is NOT proven because it only holds when the two
208+
subschema relations are mutually witnessed — at that point the two
209+
schemas are equal up to reordering and the commutativity is a
210+
one-line corollary of `noSpoofing` in both directions. Left as
211+
future work only if a downstream consumer actually needs it.

||| FieldMatches f s — witness that a field `f` (with exactly this
216+
||| (name, type) pair) appears somewhere in schema `s`.
217+
|||
218+
||| Stronger than a plain name-only membership proof (like `FieldIn`
219+
||| in Region.idr): the entire Field constructor must match, so both
220+
||| the name and the WasmType are transported by the witness. If
221+
||| `FieldMatches f s` holds, then `s` really contains `f` itself —
222+
||| not merely something with the same name but a different type.
223+
|||
224+
||| Constructors are prefixed `FM` to avoid a clash with Region.idr's
225+
||| `FieldHere` / `FieldThere`, which witness the weaker name-only

235+
||| SchemaSub imp exp — every field in `imp` appears in `exp` with
236+
||| matching (name, type). This is the structural-subtype witness
237+
||| that lets an importer consume a subset (or reordering) of an
238+
||| exporter's schema.
239+
|||
240+
||| Crucially this is NOT list equality: `imp` may omit fields,
241+
||| duplicate references (though in practice a well-formed schema
242+
||| won't), or occur in a different order than `exp`. The only
243+

351+
352+
||| No-spoofing theorem — given a module-compatibility certificate,
353+
||| every field the importer references is a bona-fide field of the
354+
||| exporter with matching (name, type). There is no way to import
355+
||| a field with a name/type combination that the exporter did not
356+
||| actually export.
357+
|||
358+
||| PROOF-NEEDS §P0.5 calls this "the actual multi-module memory
359+
||| safety invariant — the paper's killer feature". It is the
360+
||| formal counterpart of the informal claim made throughout
361+
||| typed-wasm's docs: "cross-module memory safety across language
362+
||| boundaries".
363+
|||
364+
||| Reading: if you can produce a `ModuleCompat from to imp exp`
365+
||| certificate and a `FieldMatches f imp` witness, then the proof
366+
||| term constructively transports the import evidence into
367+
||| `FieldMatches f exp` — a witness that `f` really is in `exp`.
368+
|||
369+
||| The theorem is NOT vacuous. The certificate's `SchemaSub`
370+
||| witness is unpacked field-by-field via `fieldMatchesLift`
371+
||| (which does the recursive search). The proof cannot be
372+
||| constructed from thin air — it requires an actual subschema

384+

385+
||| This is a direct specialisation of `noSpoofing` at a known
