Port pnpm's `pnpm audit signatures` registry-signature verification to pacquet. For every installed package, the package's own registry is queried for its signing keys (`/-/npm/v1/keys`) and full packument; the package is verified as soon as one of its `dist.signatures` validates over the message `name@version:integrity` against a trusted ECDSA-P256 key. Registries that advertise no signing keys are skipped (no trust root); a package whose registry provides keys but whose signature is absent is reported as missing, and one whose signature is present but does not validate as invalid (a tamper signal). Exit code 1 when any package is missing or invalid; `--json` emits the structured report. Mirrors pnpm's deps.security.signatures package and the auditSignatures command handler, including the per-package packument-error handling, the "one valid signature wins / prefer the tamper reason" logic, the key-expiry consistency check, encodeURIComponent-faithful packument URLs, the report wording, the error codes, and the JSON result shape. Adds the `p256` (RustCrypto) crate for ECDSA-P256/SHA-256 verification; it was already present transitively in the lockfile.

Fast, disk space efficient package manager:
- Fast. Up to 2x faster than the alternatives (see benchmark).
- Efficient. Files inside
node_modulesare linked from a single content-addressable storage. - Great for monorepos.
- Strict. A package can access only dependencies that are specified in its
package.json. - Deterministic. Has a lockfile called
pnpm-lock.yaml. - Works as a Node.js version manager. See pnpm runtime.
- Works everywhere. Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- Battle-tested. Used in production by teams of all sizes since 2016.
- Experimental Rust port. Includes pacquet, an experimental port of the CLI written in Rust.
- See the full feature comparison with npm and Yarn.
To quote the Rush team:
Microsoft uses pnpm in Rush repos with hundreds of projects and hundreds of PRs per day, and we’ve found it to be very fast and reliable.

Background
pnpm uses a content-addressable filesystem to store all files from all module directories on a disk. When using npm, if you have 100 projects using lodash, you will have 100 copies of lodash on disk. With pnpm, lodash will be stored in a content-addressable storage, so:
- If you depend on different versions of lodash, only the files that differ are added to the store.
If lodash has 100 files, and a new version has a change only in one of those files,
pnpm updatewill only add 1 new file to the storage. - All the files are saved in a single place on the disk. When packages are installed, their files are linked from that single place consuming no additional disk space. Linking is performed using either hard-links or reflinks (copy-on-write).
As a result, you save gigabytes of space on your disk and you have a lot faster installations!
