El SDK CI - dev / build-and-test (pull_request) Failing after 3m55s
lang: declare the el_runtime.c symbols el_seed.c's wrappers call
runtime/el_seed.c does not compile standalone via the exact command
tools/install.sh uses (`cc -std=c11 -O2 -I runtime -c runtime/el_seed.c`):
51 of its __-prefixed wrapper functions (http serving, JSON access, key-val
state, URL/HTML escaping, and the whole engram_* node/edge/layer/search
surface) call unprefixed counterparts that are implemented in el_runtime.c,
not in el_seed.c itself, and el_seed.c never declared them -- a toolchain
that treats an implicit function declaration as a hard error under C11
fails the compile outright.

install.sh already compiles el_seed.c and el_runtime.c as separate objects
and archives both into libel.a, so the symbols are always present at link
time; el_seed.c alone was just missing the prototypes.

A plain `#include "el_runtime.h"` was tried first and rejected: it redefines
el_to_float/el_from_float, which el_seed.h already provides -- a real
compile error, not a style preference. Added narrow prototypes instead,
copied verbatim from el_runtime.h, for exactly the 51 symbols el_seed.c's
wrappers reference and nothing else.

Verified clean:
  - `cc -std=c11 -O2 -I runtime -c runtime/el_seed.c` (install.sh's exact
    per-file compile) -- 0 errors, 0 warnings, even with -ferror-limit=0.
  - full `tools/install.sh` run -- compiles both objects and archives them
    into libel.a successfully.

Separately (not fixed here, out of scope): AGENTS.md's documented compiler
self-rebuild command links elc-new.c against el_seed.c, but elc-new.c's own
generated `#include "el_runtime.h"` line and 3 undeclared symbols
(el_mem_check, stdout_to_file, stdout_restore -- present in neither
el_runtime.c nor el_seed.c) mean that command fails regardless of which
runtime file it's linked against; and install.sh's libel.a only archives
el_seed.o + el_runtime.o, so any program that calls into the engram_*
surface fails to link against it (el_runtime.c's engram_* wrappers need
engram_store.c/engram_geometry.c/engram_reason.c/engram_cognition.c/
engram_vindex.c, none of which install.sh compiles in). Both are real,
pre-existing, and independent of this fix -- worth their own look.
