BEAM v0.9.0 — Enterprise-Grade Release

First public release of BEAM — a distributed graph database syncing over WebSocket, WebRTC, and multicast.

Highlights

• 15 dependency modernization sprints across 3 tiers, eliminating 5 direct + 3 transitive dependencies
• Full graceful shutdown via tokio::sync::watch channel with SIGINT/SIGTERM handling
• Supply chain security: cargo-audit (0 findings) + cargo-deny (advisories, licenses, bans, sources — all passing)
• 5 RUSTSEC advisories resolved (ring, bincode, nix, atomic-polyfill, time)
• CI modernized: full 257-test suite, clippy -D warnings, fmt check, security jobs
• Release profile hardened: opt-level=3, strip, LTO, codegen-units=1
• Gun.js wire-format compatible (3-layer proof: golden fixtures, Node.js mirror, live integration)
