fix(0113): negated-literal global initializers fold as constants
globalInitValue had no unary_op arm, so g : s64 = -1; fell into the catch-all 'must be initialized by a compile-time constant' even though constExprValue already folds negate(literal) for the module-const identifier route. The new arm routes through constExprValue and applies the direct-literal rules to the folded value: checkIntLiteralFits on ints (g : s8 = -300 gets the range diagnostic), and a negated float at an integer global narrows only when integral (-4.0 folds to -4, -4.5 errors). Binary-op initializers keep the specific non-constant diagnostic. Regression: examples/0175-types-negative-literal-global.sx.

# RESOLVED — 0113: negative-literal global initializer rejected as "not a compile-time constant"
|
||||
|
||||
**Root cause:** `globalInitValue` (src/ir/lower/decl.zig) had no `.unary_op`
|
||||
arm, so a negated literal fell into the catch-all "must be initialized by a
|
||||
compile-time constant" — even though `constExprValue` already folds
|
||||
`negate(int/float literal)` for the module-const identifier route.
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:** a `.unary_op` arm routes the initializer through `constExprValue`;
|
||||
the folded value follows the direct-literal rules — `checkIntLiteralFits` on
|
||||
ints (`g : s8 = -300;` gets the range diagnostic, not "non-constant"), and a
|
||||
negated float at an integer global narrows only when integral
|
||||
(`g : s64 = -4.0;` → -4; `-4.5` errors). Binary-op initializers
|
||||
(`g : s32 = 2 + 3;`) remain unsupported and keep the specific
|
||||
"must be initialized by a compile-time constant" diagnostic — const-expr
|
||||
folding for those is a separate feature if ever wanted.
|
||||
|
||||
**Regression test:** `examples/0175-types-negative-literal-global.sx`
|
||||
(prints `-1 -4 -128`; failed "non-constant" pre-fix).
