1//! Dilithium / ML-DSA Post-Quantum Signature Verification
2//!
3//! Implements FIPS 204 (ML-DSA) structural verification for Dilithium3
4//! (security level 3). Full NTT polynomial arithmetic is deferred to
5//! Phase 7.5; the current implementation performs structural validation
6//! and hash-based binding verification.
