Shared support for hosting ORT-compatible plugins ================================================== ``onnx_light_ort::common_ort_to_light`` is a static library exposing the initial audited CPU custom-op subset of ``OrtApi`` over onnx-light tensors. It supplies opaque adapters for statuses, registration domains, kernel attributes, values and contexts. :doc:`bridge_ops_ort_called_by_light` owns loading, descriptor selection and the session/kernel/library lifecycle. The EP bridge remains unimplemented. ``OrtApiBase::GetApi`` accepts only version 18. The full pinned ``OrtApi`` layout is preserved; unsupported slots remain null. Supported entries are: * ``CreateStatus``, ``GetErrorCode``, ``GetErrorMessage``, ``ReleaseStatus``. * ``CreateCustomOpDomain``, ``CustomOpDomain_Add``, ``AddCustomOpDomain``, ``ReleaseCustomOpDomain``. * ``KernelInfoGetAttribute_float``. * ``KernelContext_GetInputCount``, ``KernelContext_GetOutputCount``, ``KernelContext_GetInput``, ``KernelContext_GetOutput``. * ``GetTensorTypeAndShape``, ``ReleaseTensorTypeAndShapeInfo``, ``GetTensorElementType``, ``GetDimensionsCount``, ``GetDimensions``, ``GetTensorShapeElementCount``, ``GetTensorMutableData``. * ``GetTensorMemoryInfo``, ``MemoryInfoGetDeviceType``. These functions implement dense float16, bfloat16, float32 and float64 CPU values. Type queries report the actual tensor type, and output allocation uses the selected descriptor's output type. Shape and dtype-dependent byte counts are checked before allocating outputs. The component is independent of the outgoing common library and never loads ORT. ``tests/ort_test_host.h`` remains separate test infrastructure for outgoing callback units, not this host. The dependency-contract smoke test is retained alongside the real incoming fixture tests. Select both using the ``common_ort_to_light`` CTest label.
