[WIP] Add PlatformDetector utility class for platform detection

[Copilot]

Thanks for asking me to work on this. I will get started on it and keep this PR's description up to date as I form a plan and make progress.

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>[Java] Embed Rust CLI runtime 4.2: Platform detection utility</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Overview

Create the PlatformDetector utility class that determines the current platform's os, arch, libc and produces the classifier string used to locate the correct runtime.node native binary.

This is task 4.2 of 9 in the implementation plan. Tasks are assigned, completed, and merged serially in this listed order. Task 4.1 (Parent POM restructure) is complete on the base branch before this task begins.

Branch: edburns/1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-dd-3039145 on upstream

Plan and supporting resources

On the edburns/1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-dd-3039145 branch, the directory 1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge contains the plan (1917-embed-cli-runtime-ignorance-reduction-plan.md) and supporting resources (spikes, prototypes, diagrams).

Read the entire plan before working.

Relevant plan sections to carefully re-read

• Section 3.6 — Platform detection implementation — Resolution: Pure-Java detector shape with detectOs(), detectArch(), detectLinuxLibc(), detectClassifier(). ELF PT_INTERP parsing for musl vs. glibc on Linux. Read the three spikes:
  • 1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge/spike-3-6-platform-detection-darwin-arm64/
  • 1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge/spike-3-6-platform-detection-linux-x64/
  • 1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge/spike-3-6-platform-detection-win32-x64/
• Section 3.3 — JNA binding interface design — Resolution: Package com.github.copilot.ffi for all FFI-related classes.
• Section 4.2 — Platform detection utility (the primary task description)
• TDD discipline for all implementation steps — write tests first, implement until green, refactor, gate before proceeding.

Resolved decisions that constrain this task

• Package: com.github.copilot.ffi (Section 3.3 Resolution).
• Classifier format: <os>-<arch> for non-Linux; linux-<arch> for glibc Linux; linuxmusl-<arch> for musl Linux. The 8 ADR-007 classifiers are: linux-x64, linux-arm64, linuxmusl-x64, linuxmusl-arm64, darwin-x64, darwin-arm64, win32-x64, win32-arm64.
• OS mapping: os.name → darwin | linux | win32.
• Arch mapping: os.arch aliases (amd64/x86_64/x64 → x64; aarch64/arm64 → arm64).
• Linux libc detection: Read /proc/self/exe, parse ELF PT_INTERP from the first 2 KB:
  • Contains /ld-musl- → MUSL
  • Contains /ld-linux- → GLIBC
  • Parse/read failure → UNKNOWN (treated as glibc for classifier purposes)
• Allow-list: Include an allow-list for the 8 supported classifiers so unsupported tuples fail fast.
• Scope limit: This phase's gating criteria only require correct output on linux-x64 (Ubuntu 24.04). Multi-platform and musl-specific gating are deferred.

Deliverables

Files to create

1. java/sdk/src/main/java/com/github/copilot/ffi/PlatformDetector.java — Standalone utility class. Methods:

   • detectOs() — maps System.getProperty("os.name") to darwin | linux | win32
   • detectArch() — maps System.getProperty("os.arch") aliases to x64 | arm64
   • detectLinuxLibc() — reads /proc/self/exe, parses ELF PT_INTERP, classifies as GLIBC | MUSL | UNKNOWN
   • detectClassifier() — combines os/arch/libc into the classifier string
   • ELF parsing logic: private, pure Java, no subprocesses, no external dependencies
   • Classifier derivation should be table-driven

2. java/sdk/src/test/java/com/github/copilot/ffi/PlatformDetectorTest.java — Unit tests with:

   • Mocked system properties for each OS/arch combination
   • Test ELF binary fragments for PT_INTERP parsing (glibc and musl linker paths)
   • Verification of all 8 valid classifiers in the allow-list
   • Verification that unsupported tuples fail fast
   • At least one test exercising the success path and one test exercising the failure/edge-case path for each public method

Gating tests and criteria

1. Correct classifier on Ubuntu linux-x64: PlatformDetector.detectClassifier() returns "linux-x64" on ubuntu-latest.
2. Unit tests pass: All tests in PlatformDetectorTest pass.
3. All prior tests pass: mvn verify from java/ passes (reactor build including task 4.1's structure).
4. Spotless compliance: mvn spotless:check passes.

Out of scope

• Runtime-specific testing on macOS, Windows, ARM, or musl platforms (deferred to later phase).
• Native binary extraction or loading (task 4.3).
• JNA dependencies or bindings (task 4.4).
