feat: graph link compression — delta-varint connections (2.4.0 #3) Cortex registers a graph:compression provider exposing `encode`/`decode` for HNSW connection lists (delta-varint, ~4× smaller edges than the JSON-UUID-array shape brainy has persisted since the beginning). This wires the consumer side without changing the saveHNSWData/getHNSWData adapter signatures. Architecture: - NEW ConnectionsCodec (src/hnsw/connectionsCodec.ts) — translates between UUID-keyed Map<level, Set<UUID>> and a single compact per-node buffer via the provider + stable EntityIdMapper. Custom wire format: [count: u8] [[level: u8] [len: u32 LE] [bytes...]]*. One blob per node regardless of level count, so the storage I/O is identical to the legacy path (one saveHNSWData call) plus a single saveBinaryBlob. - HNSWIndex changes — a `connectionsCodec: ConnectionsCodec | null` field with `setConnectionsCodec()` setter. THREE save sites (deferred flush, immediate-mode entity persist, immediate-mode neighbor updates) now go through a single `persistNodeConnections(nodeId, noun)` helper: when the codec is wired AND the storage adapter exposes saveBinaryBlob, it encodes the connections, stores them at `_hnsw_conn/<nodeId>`, and records `connections: {}` in saveHNSWData as the marker. Otherwise the legacy JSON-array path is taken. TWO load sites use a matching `restoreNodeConnections` helper that tries loadBinaryBlob first and falls back to the legacy hnswData.connections field on miss / decode error. Format convergence is lazy: pre-2.4.0 nodes still load via the legacy path, then write the compressed form on next dirty save. - brainy.ts wireConnectionsCodec — runs alongside wireMmapVectorBackend during init. Activates when (a) the graph:compression provider is registered and (b) the metadata index exposes its idMapper. Unlike the mmap-vector backend, this layer engages on EVERY brainy 7.25.0 adapter — the blob primitive itself is universal; only the codec presence gates activation. - Provider interface GraphCompressionProvider in plugin.ts — encode + decode static signatures. Brainy depends on the interface; cortex's registered { encode: encodeConnections, decode: decodeConnections } satisfies it structurally. Tests (1437 total, +4 vs prior tip): - tests/unit/hnsw/connections-codec.test.ts — 4 unit tests with a JSON mock provider: single-level round-trip, empty-Map round-trip (one-byte buffer), multi-level fan-out round-trip, and silent-drop of UUIDs the decoding idMapper no longer knows. The real cross-language byte format is exercised when cortex 2.4.0 wires its delta-varint encode/decode in. This completes the brainy half of the 2.4.0 storage foundation: stable ids (#23), mmap vectors (#24), graph link compression (#25), and column-store interchange (#26). Coordinated release as brainy 7.26.0 + cortex 2.4.0 follows.

/**
* @module hnsw/connectionsCodec.test
* @description Unit tests for `ConnectionsCodec` the per-node buffer format
* brainy uses to persist HNSW connection sets as delta-varint-compressed
* binary blobs (2.4.0 #3).
*
* Mocks the `graph:compression` provider so the tests run without cortex
* installed. The real cross-language byte-format integration is exercised
* when cortex's `encodeConnections` / `decodeConnections` are wired in.
*
* Coverage:
* 1. Round-trip a Map of `level → Set<UUID>` through encode + decode and
* verify the result is equal to the input (level-by-level Set equality).
* 2. Empty connections encode to a single-byte buffer (`0` = zero levels) and
* decode back to an empty Map no `undefined` reads, no decode errors.
* 3. Multiple levels round-trip, including a level with a single UUID and a
* level with many UUIDs (the typical L0 fan-out).
* 4. UUIDs whose ints are no longer in the idMapper at decode time are
* silently dropped matches the pre-2.4.0 behaviour of a missing
* `getUuid()` lookup in the legacy load path.
