Detailed Description

A network backend handle: an immutable method table plus its state.

This is the object every layer above the seam passes around. It is created by a backend factory (::mdl_net_curl_create for production, or a test helper for a fake) and consumed only through the dispatchers. Holding the vtable and ctx together is what makes the substitution real: the same download loop runs against libcurl or against a mock with no code change.

Invariant

vtable is non-NULL and points to a table with all three methods populated for the whole lifetime of the handle.

ctx is whatever the backend factory stored; the dispatchers never interpret it, only forward it.
