fix(ffi-linkage): Phase 5.0 prereq — map extern C-variadic tail to ... like #foreign

Two gates were keyed on the `#foreign` (foreign_expr) body shape only:
- declareFunction: the is_variadic drop (decl.zig) — a variadic extern
  kept its trailing slice param in the IR signature.
- packVariadicCallArgs: the call-site early-out (pack.zig) — extras were
  slice-packed instead of passed through the C `...` slot.

Both now also fire for `extern_export == .extern_`, so a variadic
`extern` drops the trailing `..args: []T`, sets is_variadic, and passes
extras through the C ABI with default argument promotion — byte-identical
to its `#foreign` twin. Greens example 1229.
