Module validate 

Validation layer for .pedal files.

Runs at compile time (not runtime) to catch common errors in .pedal circuit definitions. Collects warnings without hard-failing — the goal is to surface issues that would otherwise be silently ignored by the compiler pipeline.

Categories of warnings

• Component reference errors: nets/controls referencing components that don’t exist
• Invalid pin names: using pins that don’t exist for a given component type
• Unrecognized modulation targets: LFO/envelope outputs going to pins the compiler skips
• Suspicious component values: zero-ohm resistors, negative caps, etc.
• Duplicate component IDs: two components sharing the same name
• Orphaned components: components declared but never wired into any net
• Missing signal path: no route from in to out
• Control binding issues: controls targeting nonexistent components
