Closes bounty #13954 (Proof-of-Antiquity Explainer — Infographic).

What

Original infographic explaining RustChain's Proof of Antiquity, aimed at a smart newcomer. Covers:

  • 1 CPU = 1 vote, weighted by hardware antiquity (multiplier table: SPARC/68K/PPC 3.5x → modern 1.0x)
  • The 6-check hardware fingerprint (clock-skew, cache timing, SIMD identity, thermal drift, instruction jitter, anti-emulation)
  • Real hardware vs VM comparison (anti-emulation FAIL → 0.000000001x weight)
  • Getting started: pip install clawrtc

Deliverable

docs/poa_explainer.png — original artwork, 1200x1600.
