lang: for-loop by-ref element capture (for xs: (*x))
(*x) binds x to a pointer into the collection (index_gep) instead of a per-element value copy: passing it on (e.g. to a *T param) is zero-copy and mutations write back. In a value position x auto-derefs — a binary-op operand loads the element, a pointer-typed slot keeps the pointer, and an 'if x == {...}' match derefs the pointee for its tag/payload. Arrays GEP through their storage so writes hit the original. Regression test: examples/for-by-ref-capture.sx.
