Introduce a read-snapshot plane so pure-snapshot control queries render in
the control-socket task instead of round-tripping the rx_loop, removing the
head-of-line coupling that let a busy or slow rx_loop time out fipsctl and
fipstop observability.
- ControlReadHandle: a cloneable bundle the control accept loop holds, over
the node's already-shared NodeContext and MetricsRegistry plus an
ArcSwap-published StatsSnapshot. A snapshot_dispatch seam serves cut-over
commands off-loop and falls through to the rx_loop for the rest, keeping
the rx_loop's ownership of Node intact.
- StatsSnapshot is published from the tick (the natural and sole mutator of
stats_history), carrying the history rings plus the scalar gauges and
counts show_status reports. Readers serve the latest snapshot
unconditionally, with staleness bounded by the tick interval and no
IO_TIMEOUT-coupled fallback.
- Off-loop now: show_status, show_stats_history, show_stats_all_history,
show_listening_sockets, show_stats_list, and a new counter-only
show_metrics (exposed as fipsctl "stats metrics", the enabler for a
Prometheus scraper at no hot-path cost). Queries that need live per-entity
state (peers, links, sessions, routing, and the per-peer stats variants)
stay on the rx_loop path pending later phases.
Quartet green; forward-merge to next verified clean.
