pseudoSumIPv4/IPv6, foldOnceNoInvert, ipv4HdrChecksum (batch) and
foldComplement (tio/virtio) feed the virtio NEEDS_CSUM contract; a wrong
seed means every coalesced packet is silently dropped by the receiver
with nothing failing on our side. Check them against an independent
reference built from explicit RFC pseudo-header bytes -- deliberately
not the production checksum code -- including the carry/fold edge cases
and an end-to-end seed -> kernel-completion -> receiver-accepts
property.
