Description
## Outcome
Implement one native Tantivy engine, Node-API boundary, and TypeScript facade for standalone and Harper use.
## Acceptance criteria
- Pin and qualify Tantivy and persisted formats; MmapDirectory is the only supported datasource.
- Define packed mutation/search/status/error/cancellation/lifecycle contracts with explicit buffer ownership.
- Expose opaque native checkpoint publication/readback using existing engine payload support.
- Keep indexing, merges, commit and search off JavaScript and libuv with bounded native execution.
- One IndexWriter per physical index generation; independent indexes can run concurrently.
- Implement the agreed BM25, Boolean, phrase, prefix/autocomplete, fuzzy, filtering, and optional highlighting contracts.
- Reuse common native engine behavior in Harper; do not add a Harper storage factory or wrapper-owned replay service.
## Design
[Native Tantivy storage and Harper derived indexes](https://github.com/HarperFast/fulltext/blob/codex/native-storage-design/docs/native-storage-integration.md). Native Tantivy files are the only delivery target for standalone use and Harper. Proposed APIs and integration gates are not claims of completed implementation.
