83ec2536af lang: catch/onfail error bindings take parens
try foo() catch (e) { }   // legal
try foo() catch e { }     // parse error with a migration hint

Same capture style as the for-loop. All four catch shapes keep working
with the parenthesized binding — block, bare-expression body, and the
== match sugar — and the no-binding forms are unchanged. onfail follows
the same rule (onfail (e) { }); its expression-cleanup form is
disambiguated by the paren-group-before-brace lookahead, so
onfail (f()); stays an expression cleanup.

AST unchanged; the printer renders the parens; the #run escape help
text updated. Corpus migrated (57 catch + 3 onfail bindings, in-source
parser test strings, specs incl. grammar rules, readme untouched —
no catch examples there).

Regression: examples/1157-diagnostics-catch-binding-needs-parens.sx;
re-captured stderr for 1010/1013/1037/1123 (migrated source echoed in
carets + help text).

549f97c731 ERR/E5.2: comptime #run of an escaping failable → diagnostic + halt
A bare failable `#run` (no catch/or) whose error escapes used to segfault (const
form `x :: #run f()`) or silently succeed (statement form `#run f();`). Now the
compiler reports the raised tag name + the resolved return trace at the #run site
and halts with a non-zero exit.

- lower.zig: a failable #run's comptime function returns the full failable tuple
  (so the error slot is inspectable) while the global is typed as the success
  value; failable side-effects return the tuple instead of void.
- emit_llvm.zig: read the always-on comptime trace buffer (extern sx_trace_*);
  comptimeErrChannel + checkComptimeFailable split the result (non-zero tag →
  reportComptimeEscape + comptime_failed flag; success → value part). Wired into
  emitGlobals (const) and runComptimeSideEffects (statement, now filtered by the
  __run name; buffer cleared before each eval).
- core.zig: generateCode returns error.ComptimeError when comptime_failed, so the
  driver aborts before JIT/link.

catch / or / onfail compose at comptime exactly as at runtime; a successful bare
#run yields the value. Regressions: examples/1037-errors-comptime-run-escape
(diagnostic, exit 1) + 1038-errors-comptime-run-handled (exit 164). Suite: 326.
