fix: comprehensive Gerbil Scheme syntax corrections and build system setup

Major changes:
- Fixed hash table syntax: use make-hash-table + hash-put! instead of (hash) macro
- Fixed symbol syntax: 'symbol instead of :symbol (except in module imports)
- Fixed case statements: ((symbol)) instead of ((:symbol))
- Fixed defstruct constructors: positional args instead of keyword args
- Removed #!keyword - converted to rest parameters with manual parsing
- Added (package: o) declarations to all modules

Build system:
- Added build.ss for gxpkg compilation
- Added manifest.ss for package configuration
- Created std/kwargs.ss utility for keyword argument handling

Database layer:
- Created database/client.ss with stub functions (placeholder for future socket/msgpack layer)
- Updated memory/blocks.ss to use database stubs
- Added docs/TODO_SOCKET_LAYER.md documenting full socket layer requirements

This resolves compilation issues across 70+ Gerbil source files.

+# TODO: Socket/Msgpack Layer Implementation
+
+## Overview
+This document tracks the future implementation of the complete socket/msgpack layer for communication between Gerbil agents and the Elixir supervision layer.
+
+## Current State
+- **Status**: Placeholder/stub implementation
+- **Location**: `o/gerbil/database/client.ss`
+- **Reason**: Gerbil syntax fixes took priority; stub functions allow testing core logic
+
+## Implementation Requirements
+
+### 1. MessagePack Encoding/Decoding
+**File**: `o/gerbil/std/net/msgpack.ss`
+
+Need to implement:
+- `msgpack-pack` - Encode Scheme values to MessagePack binary format
+- `msgpack-unpack` - Decode MessagePack binary to Scheme values
+- Support for: nil, boolean, integers, floats, strings, arrays, maps
+
+### 2. Socket Communication
+**Files**:
+- `o/gerbil/database/client.ss`
+- `o/gerbil/agent/elixir-bridge.ss`
+
+Need to implement:
+- `socket-connect` - Connect to Elixir service
+- `socket-send` - Send binary data
+- `socket-recv` - Receive binary data
+- Connection pooling/reconnection logic
+- Error handling and retry logic
+
+### 3. Protocol Implementation
+**Request Format**:
+```scheme
+{
+  "type": "db_request",
+  "request_id": 123,
+  "operation": "create_agent",
+  "params": { ... }
+}
+```
+
+**Response Format**:
+```scheme
+{
+  "type": "db_response",
+  "request_id": 123,
+  "success": true,
+  "data": { ... }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Database Operations to Implement
+
+| Function | Status | Notes |
+|----------|--------|-------|
+| `db-connect!` | Stub | Need real socket connection |
+| `db-disconnect!` | Stub | Need proper cleanup |
+| `db-create-agent` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-agent` | Stub | |
+| `db-update-agent` | Stub | |
+| `db-delete-agent` | Stub | |
+| `db-list-agents` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-memory-blocks` | Stub | |
+| `db-create-memory-block` | Stub | |
+| `db-update-memory-block` | Stub | |
+| `db-delete-memory-block` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-messages` | Stub | |
+| `db-create-message` | Stub | |
+| `db-search-archival-memory` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-conversation` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-conversation-by-role` | Stub | |
+| `db-get-agent-statistics` | Stub | |
+
+### 5. Dependencies
+- Gerbil's `:std/io/socket` module
+- Custom MessagePack encoder/decoder
+- Elixir backend must be running on configured port (default 9000)
+
+### 6. Testing Strategy
+1. Unit tests for MessagePack encoding/decoding
+2. Mock Elixir server for integration testing
+3. Real Elixir backend for end-to-end testing
+
+## References
+- MessagePack spec: https://msgpack.org/
+- Gerbil socket docs: https://cons.io/gerbil/
+- Elixir supervisor: `o/o_supervisor/`
+
+## Priority
+**Medium** - Core Gerbil code functionality is more important. The stub implementation allows:
+- Testing Gerbil agent logic
+- Verifying memory systems
+- Running tool execution tests
+
+This can be implemented once Gerbil code is fully working.
