ruvnet f6c684aba0 docs(sdk): add deep planning review for ruvector Python SDK
Seven-file design review at docs/sdk/ covering the binding strategy,
API surface, M1-M4 milestones, risks, and a one-page decision record
for shipping a Python SDK.

Recommended path: **PyO3 + maturin, single in-tree
`crates/ruvector-py/` cdylib, abi3-py39 wheel via cibuildwheel,
`pyo3-asyncio` over a singleton tokio runtime.**

Why:
- The existing `*-node` NAPI templates (e.g.
  `crates/ruvector-diskann-node/src/lib.rs`) already prove out the
  opaque-handle + `Arc<RwLock<…>>` shape PyO3 mirrors line-for-line —
  ~70% port, ~30% lifetime gymnastics.
- abi3 collapses the wheel matrix from ~25 (cpython36 × 5 platforms)
  to 5 (one wheel per platform, all py3.9+).
- Singleton tokio runtime avoids the "one runtime per call" overhead
  while remaining compatible with asyncio + uvloop.

Milestone shape (each with explicit scope + acceptance tests):

  M1 — RaBitQ-only Python wheel. Just the published
       `ruvector-rabitq` crate exposed via PyO3. Smallest possible
       useful surface. ~600 LoC, 3 weeks.
  M2 — ruLake. Async via pyo3-asyncio. Witness verify exposed.
       ~900 LoC, 4 weeks.
  M3 — Embeddings + ML helpers. Wrap consumer-facing parts of
       `ruvector-cnn` / `ruvllm`. ~700 LoC, 3 weeks.
  M4 — A2A agent client. Wrap `rvagent-a2a` so Python apps can
       dispatch tasks to A2A peers, including signed AgentCard
       discovery. ~800 LoC, 4 weeks.

Three acceptance gates that gate the whole effort:
  1. A Python user can do RAG over 1 M vectors in <5 lines.
  2. An asyncio user can stream A2A task updates without thread
     fights.
  3. `pip install ruvector` takes <10 s on a stock machine.

Top 3 risks identified:
  R1 — tokio runtime + PyO3 + asyncio/uvloop interop. Mitigation:
       single lazy runtime, `pyo3-asyncio` shim.
  R3 — wheel size. M4 budget is 22 MB; A2A deps (axum + reqwest +
       rustls) could blow it. Mitigation: feature-gate axum/reqwest
       behind `agent` extra; default install is rabitq + rulake only.
  R7 — PyPI name squat on `ruvector`. Mitigation: register placeholder
       before M1 ships.

Nuance discovered: `ruvector-rabitq` has **no** sibling `*-node` or
`*-wasm` crate — unlike most consumer crates. M1 is therefore clean
greenfield: no parity-pressure to match a flaky NAPI signature, and
it confirms rabitq alone is the right starter target rather than the
umbrella `ruvector` crate the npm package wraps.

Planning doc only; no implementation.
