+ * 1. Scheme allowlist — only `http`/`https` (blocks `file:`, `data:`, `gopher:`…).
+ * 2. Address check — the hostname is RESOLVED and every returned address is
+ *    checked against private/loopback/link-local/reserved ranges (v4 and v6,
+ *    including IPv4-mapped and alternate IP encodings).
+ * 3. Connection pinning — the connection is pinned to the exact address the check
+ *    validated (see {@link createPinnedDispatcher}). Without this, resolving-then-
+ *    fetching re-resolves the hostname at connect time, so a DNS-rebind attacker
+ *    can pass the check with a public IP and have the socket land on 127.0.0.1
+ *    (a TOCTOU hole). Pinning closes it: the connection can only reach a validated
+ *    address, and the host header / TLS SNI still carry the original hostname.
+ *
+ * The check runs BEFORE any request is dispatched, and again on every redirect hop
+ * (see fetch.ts). A block is a security refusal, distinct from a network failure.
