Research direction

The issue body names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the CHERIoT instruction-fetch (IF) stage and its PCC checks, then trace how fetch permissions are currently enforced. Done means instruction fetches are limited to addresses allowed by the PCC and the relevant behavior is covered by tests.
