    Close item 17: replace cascading cleanup with goto in transport_init/newkeys

    transport_init: 7 allocation failure points (4 buffers + 3 sync
    primitives) each duplicated cleanup of all prior resources. Replaced
    with goto init_cleanup; bool flags track which sync primitives need
    destroying.

    newkeys: 6 key buffer mallocs had cascading cleanse_free chains;
    replaced with NULL-initialized pointers and goto keys_cleanup
    (reusing the existing label). Also simplified the post-derive_key
    error block from 8 lines to a single goto.

    Eliminates ~50 lines of duplicated cleanup code across 8 error paths.
