feat(asm): Phase A.0 — add kw_asm keyword + lex test

`asm` now lexes as a dedicated `kw_asm` keyword (Token.Tag + keyword map entry).
`volatile` and `clobbers` stay out of the global keyword table — they are
recognized contextually only inside an `asm { … }` body (PLAN-ASM Deviation 4).

- token.zig: kw_asm tag + `.{ "asm", .kw_asm }` map entry.
- lsp/server.zig: classifyToken exhaustive switch gained the .kw_asm arm
  (the new enum value forced coverage — intended tripwire).
- lexer.test.zig (new, wired into root.zig barrel): locks `asm`->kw_asm and
  `volatile`/`clobbers`->identifier.

Lock commit (behavior-locking passing test). zig build test green (445 unit).

-(contextual). This is a **lock** commit (behavior-locking passing test). Then A.1
-(parse `asm { … }` → `AsmExpr`, lowering bails loudly). See `PLAN-ASM.md` Phase A.
+**A.1** (xfail) — parse `asm { … }` → `AsmExpr` / `AsmOperand` in `parsePrimary`
+(`src/parser.zig`); add the `asm_expr` arm to `Node.Data` + the `AsmExpr` /

+`bailDetail("inline asm codegen unimplemented")` in `src/ir/interp.zig` (or the

+bail must be loud + named. See `PLAN-ASM.md` Phase A (A.1) + design §II.3–II.4.
