Implement first ESP32 QEMU runner for esp32dev post-build crash testing #25
Implement the first ESP32 QEMU-backed emulator path for crash-oriented post-build testing.
Why
The repo already documents QEMU testing direction for ESP32, and the existing crash decoder understands ESP32-family crash output. The practical first slice is narrow: esp32dev only, with clearly documented image-layout and flash-mode constraints.
Scope
implement QemuEsp32Runner
support esp32dev only in the first iteration
define the required artifact bundle: bootloader, partitions, app binary, or merged image
codify image layout / flash mode constraints for emulator use
route emulator output through existing timeout and crash classification logic
add at least one crash fixture and one success fixture
Explicit non-goals
ESP32-S3 support in the first iteration
broad ESP32 family coverage
pretending QEMU coverage is equivalent to hardware validation
Acceptance criteria
fbuild test-emu works end-to-end for esp32dev
crash output is surfaced and classified through existing decoding/monitor logic
constraints are documented clearly in tests/examples/docs
unsupported ESP32 variants fail explicitly instead of silently trying to run

Priority note: this is P2 for the first wave, not because it lacks value, but because it carries more emulator-specific constraints than AVR.

Completed in PR #28. QemuRunner implemented for ESP32 and ESP32-S3 with DIO flash mode validation and crash classification.
