Unit tests for APK CFG feature parity with the Binary Ninja pipeline.

Tests advanced CFG features computed from smali (topology hash, MD-index,
WL-MinHash, prime product, packed adjacency, block features export) and
the slimmed similarity table.

All tests use mocked smali input — no JADX/apktool/Java required.
