tests: document AFP scan file information smoke coverage
Document the Linux AFP 2.0 Scan File Information smoke coverage after the endpoint was verified against SYS:PUBLIC.

The scan test exercises the WebSDK-documented NCP 0x23/0x11 request by walking a directory one entry at a time and feeding the returned next_last_seen AFP Entry ID into the next request. Record the verified multi-entry SYS:PUBLIC sequence and explain that the current Entry IDs are still stat-derived fallback values until persistent CNID/AppleDouble mapping is implemented.

Update the Linux test README with the afp_scan_info_smoke build target and examples, and move Scan File Information out of the generic unimplemented AFP follow-up list while keeping broader scan edge cases and full Mac namespace work tracked.

This is documentation-only and does not change AFP protocol behavior.

# Linux NCP smoke tests
This directory contains optional Linux-side integration tests for endpoints that
are easier to exercise from a Unix host than from the DOS test utilities.
The tests use the ncpfs/libncp client library. They are not built by default
because they require the host ncpfs development headers/library and a running
NetWare-compatible server.
Build with:
```sh
cmake -DMARS_NWE_BUILD_LINUX_TESTS=ON ...
cmake --build . --target afp_entry_id_smoke
cmake --build . --target afp_file_info_smoke
cmake --build . --target afp_scan_info_smoke
```
## AFP Entry ID smoke test
`afp_entry_id_smoke` sends the WebSDK-documented NetWare AFP request:
```text
NCP 0x2222/35/12 AFP Get Entry ID From Path Name
```
It uses libncp's `NWRequestSimple()` path, so it goes through the same client
transport stack as other Linux ncpfs utilities.
Example:
```sh
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
```
The test accepts NetWare-style `VOL:PATH` arguments. By default it sends the
supplied `SYS:`-style path directly with directory handle 0, matching the
verified mars_nwe smoke-test path. `--alloc-handle` is available only for
follow-up debugging of the separate directory-handle allocation path, and
`--dir-handle N` expects a handle that is valid in the current connection.
Useful smoke cases for a standard MARS-NWE `SYS` volume are:
```sh
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:SYSTEM
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:BURST
```
A successful reply prints the request path, directory handle, and returned
32-bit AFP Entry ID. Server-side diagnostics currently mark stat-derived
temporary IDs with `fallback`; that means the endpoint is reachable, but
persistent CNID/AppleDouble entry-id storage is still future Mac-namespace
work.
If the server was built without the optional Netatalk/libatalk backend, the
endpoint is expected to return invalid namespace. To treat that as a successful
negative smoke test, use:
```sh
./tests/linux/afp_entry_id_smoke --allow-invalid-namespace -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
```
For path-resolution negative tests, use `--allow-invalid-path` to accept the
expected `0x9c` Invalid Path completion.
## AFP File Information smoke test
`afp_file_info_smoke` sends the WebSDK-documented NetWare AFP file
information requests:
```text
NCP 0x2222/35/05 AFP Get File Information
NCP 0x2222/35/15 AFP 2.0 Get File Information
```
It uses the same libncp `NWRequestSimple()` transport path as the Entry ID
smoke test and sends raw `SYS:`-style path requests with directory handle 0.
The server replies with the read-only AFP file information record currently
implemented by mars_nwe: Entry ID, Parent ID, attributes, data/resource fork
lengths, offspring count, fixed long/short names, and access rights.
Useful smoke cases for a standard MARS-NWE `SYS` volume are:
```sh
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:SYSTEM
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:BURST
# AFP 2.0 variant using the same path-backed read-only reply
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke --afp20 -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke --afp20 -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke --afp20 -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:SYSTEM
./tests/linux/afp_file_info_smoke --afp20 -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:BURST
```
The AFP 2.0 mode is selected with `--afp20`. It has been verified against
the same `SYS:`, `SYS:PUBLIC`, `SYS:SYSTEM`, and `SYS:BURST` paths and
currently exercises the same path-backed read-only reply as the older call.
The current implementation fills fields that can be derived from Unix `stat(2)` and the optional libatalk
helper wrappers. Server-side diagnostics mark
stat-derived temporary Entry IDs with `fallback`; Parent ID, persistent
CNID/AppleDouble IDs, and fuller Finder Info/resource-fork semantics remain
future Mac-namespace work.
If the server was built without the optional Netatalk/libatalk backend, use
`--allow-invalid-namespace` for the expected negative test. Use
`--allow-invalid-path` for path-resolution negative tests.
## AFP Scan File Information smoke test
`afp_scan_info_smoke` sends the WebSDK-documented NetWare AFP scan request:
```text
NCP 0x2222/35/17 AFP 2.0 Scan File Information
```
It scans one directory entry per request using the same read-only AFP file
information record as `afp_file_info_smoke`. The test sends raw `SYS:`-style
path requests with directory handle 0 and uses the returned `next_last_seen` AFP
Entry ID as the continuation token for the next call.
Useful smoke sequence for a standard MARS-NWE `SYS:PUBLIC` directory:
```sh
./tests/linux/afp_scan_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret SYS:PUBLIC
./tests/linux/afp_scan_info_smoke -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret --last-seen 0x23c8787d SYS:PUBLIC
./tests/linux/afp_scan_info_smoke --allow-empty -S MARS -U SUPERVISOR -P secret --last-seen 0x260437f6 SYS:PUBLIC
```
The concrete Entry IDs vary by filesystem metadata and are currently marked as
`fallback` in server diagnostics when they are derived from `stat(2)` rather
than persistent CNID/AppleDouble metadata. The verified smoke path walks
multiple entries in `SYS:PUBLIC` by feeding each returned `next_last_seen` value
into the next request.
If the server was built without the optional Netatalk/libatalk backend, use
`--allow-invalid-namespace` for the expected negative test. Use
`--allow-invalid-path` for path-resolution negative tests, and `--allow-empty`
when a scan continuation is expected to reach the end of the directory.
