Phase 0 binding per PHASE0.md §6. M.post(url, body, headers, timeout_ms)
uses CURLOPT_{URL, POST, POSTFIELDS, HTTPHEADER, WRITEFUNCTION, NOSIGNAL,
TIMEOUT_MS, USERAGENT} on a fresh easy handle, capturing the response
into a Lua string via a closure-based WRITEFUNCTION callback.
curl_easy_setopt is variadic; LuaJIT's variadic FFI dispatch needs
ffi.new() per argument otherwise. Pre-cast to three concrete signatures
(long / void* / const char*) bypasses that — cleaner and matches the
lua-curl idiom.
Robust loader: tries `curl`, `curl.so.4`, `curl-gnutls.so.4` so a
runtime-only host (no libcurl-dev installed) just works. Same idiom
as ffi/readline.
Smoke against a local nc listener: request was correctly framed
(POST path, Content-Type + X-Test headers, Content-Length matches
JSON body length) and the canned response was captured into the
returned Lua string.
SSE streaming for Phase 1 reuses this same WRITEFUNCTION hook —
chunks arrive incrementally, the closure consumes them as they come.
