Transaction Science 3b6fd99989 Add WAI — Web AI Media Transport & Execution standard
WAI is a container + capability-dispatch standard for media. It does not
re-implement codecs; it dispatches to SOTA standard libraries (PNG, FLAC,
zstd as the mandatory floor; AVIF, JPEG-XL, Opus, AV1, XZ as the
recommended modern set) and adds an envelope that lets a neural
shared-prior path coexist with the model-free floor.

The capability a file requires is named, not supplied. Two paths open
every conforming file: the neural condition (sink regenerates from a
shared ambient prior) and the zeroth condition (registered SOTA codec
menu). Apache-2.0.

Adds:
- wai/SPEC.md — WAI v1.0 spec (envelope, manifest, capability dispatch,
  registered capabilities including v1.1 multi-rendition extension)
- wai/wai-rs/ — Rust reference implementation: lib + cdylib + staticlib,
  C FFI, 11 capability + envelope round-trip tests passing
- wai/wai-web/ — wasm-bindgen wrapper for browser sinks
- wai/wai-neural/ — Python tooling for neural-condition models
- wai/tools/ — codec export + encode helpers (Python)
- wai/corpus/CORPUS.md — third-party test corpus reacquisition guide

Updates README.md to list four standards instead of three.

Known consumer: CommunicationOS uses WAI for media transport over
MoQT/MLS sessions.

"""WAI source-side neural encoder for `wai.neural.mimi`.
Mimi (Kyutai) at 24 kHz, 12.5 Hz frame rate, 8 codebooks of 2048.
Designed for real-time speech LLM use cases. Token rate is among the
lowest of any high-quality neural audio codec (~1.1 kbps), which makes
it the right pick when the wire-byte budget dominates.
Wire format (uniform with all wai.neural.<audio> capabilities):
<III> q t n_samples (little-endian u32 × 3)
q*t × u16 codes (row-major, LE)
Usage:
python tools/wai_mimi_encode.py <input.wav> -o <output.wai>
