ROADMAP.md: scope M8 REPL keyboard wiring, design decisions resolved
Not implementation -- documentation-only. M8 is tracked outside Stadium (FABRIC.md §27.5), so this scoping lives in docs/lithosananke/ROADMAP.md rather than as new FABRIC.md 4.3.x items. Read the code before scoping, not assumed: the REPL already works interactively over serial (sk_repl_run(), repl.c) with working backspace/echo, and its on-screen text already renders via the existing VT100 console (vt100_init()/font_8x16.c) independent of both the stroke font and TrueType work -- neither was ever a REPL-strip prerequisite. What's actually missing: sk_readline()'s console_getc() is serial-UART-only, never touches KEY-EVENT (4.3.5f); KEY/?TERMINAL (io_words.c) are dead stubs (KEY calls a getchar() hardcoded to EOF in shim.c, ?TERMINAL always returns false). Resolved design decisions: minimal US-QWERTY scancode->ASCII layout with shift-state tracking (KEY-EVENT carries no modifier state today); merge keyboard into console_getc()'s poll with serial staying a co-equal source, not replaced (the entire acceptance/DoE harness injects over the serial socket -- breaking that breaks make qemu, DOE_INJECT, and every screendump technique used throughout 4.3.x); wire KEY/?TERMINAL to the same merged source for FORTH-79 compliance; CANVAS viewport sizing last, since it's presentation not input plumbing. Extended scancodes, autorepeat-as-character-repeat, arrow-key history explicitly out of scope for the "minimal" bar. FABRIC.md's existing "not yet scoped" notes (4.3.5f's landing-point note, 4.3.7f's closing note) updated to point here rather than duplicating the design content.
