leetcrypt 7bd972f39c feat(srp): pure-Python server Verifier so Termux can HOST a room
The srp package's C-extension has no aarch64/bionic wheel, so a phone in
Termux couldn't run the room server. Add the server side of SRP-6a
(create_salted_verification_key + Verifier) to the pure-Python shim and
fall srp_auth.py back to it on ImportError.

Proven live: a laptop (C-ext srp client) authenticated against a room
HOSTED ON THE PHONE (pure Verifier) over Tailscale — cross-implementation
handshake with matching session keys. Locked in with interop tests
covering real-client-vs-pure-Verifier, pure-vs-pure, and a wrong-password
negative control.

"""Pure-Python SRP-6a client — a drop-in fallback for the ``srp`` PyPI package.
The ``srp`` PyPI package is a C extension with no reliable aarch64 wheel, so it
often fails to build under Termux/Android. This module reproduces the *exact*
client-side derivation of that package's pure-Python reference (``srp._pysrp``)
with ``rfc5054_enable()`` active, using only the standard library.
The client surface ``cmd_chat/client/client.py`` consumes:
rfc5054_enable() # module-level toggle
SHA256 # hash-alg constant
usr = User(b"chat", password, hash_alg=SHA256)
_, A = usr.start_authentication() # -> (username, A_bytes)
M = usr.process_challenge(salt, B) # -> M_bytes or None
usr.verify_session(H_AMK) # sets authenticated flag
usr.authenticated() # -> bool
The server surface ``cmd_chat/server/srp_auth.py`` consumes (so a phone/Termux
box with no ``srp`` C-ext can *host* a room, not only join one):
salt, vkey = create_salted_verification_key(b"chat", pw, hash_alg=SHA256)
svr = Verifier(b"chat", salt, vkey, A, hash_alg=SHA256)
s, B = svr.get_challenge() # -> (salt, B_bytes)
H_AMK = svr.verify_session(M) # -> H_AMK or None
K = svr.get_session_key()
Both sides mirror ``srp._pysrp`` byte for byte — every constant, padding rule,
and hash input — otherwise the M1 / H_AMK proofs would not match the real
library and auth would fail. Correctness is gated by
tests/test_srp_pure_interop.py (pure↔real in both directions).
