Patch Review

This is the core of the series and is well-designed.

**Type-state design:** The `Idle =E2=86=92 Unarmed =E2=86=92 Pending` state=
 machine for `Top` is excellent:
```rust
impl Top<Idle> { fn unarm(self, bar) -> Top<Unarmed> }
impl Top<Unarmed> { fn read_pending(self, bar) -> Top<Pending> }
impl Top<Pending> { fn rearm(self, bar) }
```
This makes it impossible to rearm without first reading pending state, catc=
hing a real hardware programming mistake at compile time.

**Issue:** The `Subtree::iter_leaves` method:
```rust
fn iter_leaves<'a>(self, ctrl: &'a IntrCtrl,) -> impl Iterator<Item =3D Lea=
f<Idle>> + 'a {
    (0..2usize).filter_map(move |offset| {
        let idx =3D self.index * 2 + offset;
        LeafIndex::try_new(idx).map(|idx| ctrl.leaf(idx))
    })
}
```
`self.index` comes from iterating `0..32` in `iter_subtrees()`. For pre-Hop=
per, `subtree_mask` is `0x0f`, so indices 0-3 are possible, giving leaf ind=
ices 0-7 (all within bounds for `LeafIndex =3D Bounded<usize, 4>` which all=
ows 0-15). For Hopper, indices 0-7 map to leaves 0-15. This is correct.

However, the `iter_subtrees` method iterates `0..32`:
```rust
pub(super) fn iter_subtrees(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item =3D Subtree> + '_ {
    (0..32usize)
        .filter(move |&bit| self.state.mask & (1u32 << bit) !=3D 0)
        .map(|index| Subtree { index })
}
```
If a hardware bug or corruption set bit 8+ in TOP on a pre-Hopper chip, thi=
s would produce subtree indices =E2=89=A58, leaf indices =E2=89=A516, and `=
LeafIndex::try_new()` would return `None`, silently dropping those leaves. =
This is safe but could silently miss bogus interrupt state. Arguably that's=
 the right behavior since those bits are undefined on pre-Hopper.

**Minor:** `#[expect(dead_code)]` on the `irq` module in `nova_core.rs` is =
pragmatic - the module is added here but only consumed later in patch 6. Pa=
tch 6 then changes this to `#[cfg_attr(not(CONFIG_NOVA_CORE_IRQ_SELFTEST), =
expect(dead_code))]`, which means without the selftest config, the entire `=
irq` module (including `alloc_vector`) is dead code. This is fine for now s=
ince the module will gain users in future patches, but it's unusual to land=
 code that's entirely dead in the default configuration.
