As an emulator integrator, I want vemu to finish its Device-tree (DTB) binary parse (core) model, so that I can depend on consume real DTBs for production firmware, not just the common path.

Why it matters

Consume real DTBs

Summary

Walk a compiled blob

Scope of work

Currently a register-only stub. Replace it with a working model of Device-tree (DTB) binary parse (core) that actually exhibits the hardware behavior. What it is: Walk a compiled blob. Why it matters: Consume real DTBs.

Current state

Status: Stub only (registers, no behavior). Notes / evidence: Core checks magic then "not implemented"; a real FDT walker exists in vemu-loader/src/fit.rs.
