The `pod` field hashed pod.Name, which differs per replica because of
the ReplicaSet pod-template-hash + 5-char random suffix. With
namespace,pod,image, all replicas of the same Deployment got distinct
hextets even though they were the same workload.
Replace `pod` with `app` — a stable workload identifier derived from
the controller chain:
- Deployment → ReplicaSet → Pod: strip the pod-template-hash suffix
from the RS name (`traefik-789df685f` → `traefik`).
- StatefulSet/DaemonSet/Job → Pod: use controller name as-is.
- Bare pod: pod name.
Image now comes from pod.Spec.Containers[0].Image (the spec'd
reference). 64-hex-char values are treated as sha256 digests and
parsed as before; everything else (image:tag, short SHA) is FNV-1a-64'd
as a string. This makes `traefik:v3.5` deterministic across replicas
without needing the runtime-resolved digest.
Net effect: namespace,app,image yields identical hextets across all
replicas of the same Deployment except the trailing random N nibble.
embed.Values.Pod → App; AllocRequest.Pod kept for log context only,
new App and Image fields drive the embed call. handlers.go computes
both via deriveAppName + podImageRef helpers.
Tests: 7 new TestDeriveAppName_* cases (Deploy/STS/DS/bare/RS-without-
hash/non-controller-owner) + TestPodImageRef. Existing fuzz seeds
updated for the new keyword.

NodeConfig.Spec.Defaults adds per-node IPv6/IPv4 family defaults that pod
annotations can override; built-in baseline (v6=true, v4=false) still
applies when the field is omitted.
bird.Render now validates every operator-supplied value (peer addresses,
CIDRs, anycast IPs, source addresses) before templating — fuzz found a
peer address containing `}` produced unbalanced braces in bird.conf.
Failing input preserved as a regression seed.
Fuzz targets added for ParseAnnotations, ParseCNIArgs, HostIfaceName,
canonical, IPAM allocate sequences, embed.Embed, and bird.Render.
Hardened canonical/ipToU32 against nil and non-IPv4 inputs.
README rewritten for outside readers — quickstart, NodeConfig + annotation
reference with worked examples, anycast use cases, comparison vs Calico
and Cilium, requirements, limitations.
