Rewrote 20 issue writeups to the extern/runtime-class vocabulary (#foreign→extern,
foreign_class_map→runtime_class_map, parseForeignClassDecl→parseRuntimeClassDecl,
findForeignMethodInChain→findRuntimeMethodInChain, dedupeForeignSymbol→
dedupeExternSymbol, is_foreign_c_api→is_extern_c_api, stale filename refs to the
renamed examples, foreign-class→runtime-class, bare foreign→extern). Renamed

PHASE 9 COMPLETE — 9.4 GATE PASSES: zero 'foreign' across src/library/examples/
issues/docs/editors/specs/readme/CLAUDE, excluding only the SQLite API constant
SQLITE_CONSTRAINT_FOREIGNKEY + vendored sqlite3.c/.h (upstream third-party).
Suite green (644 corpus / 443 unit, 0 failed).
Surface rename of the signed integer family: s1..s64 become i1..i64
(u1..u64, usize, isize unchanged). 'string' keeps the s-prefix arm in
name classification; width parsing moves to the i-prefix arm next to
isize.
Internal TypeId tags follow the surface (.s8/.s16/.s32/.s64 ->
.i8/.i16/.i32/.i64), as do mono-key mangle fragments (ptr_i64,
tu_i64_bool) and all display/diagnostic formatting (i{d}).
Migrated in the same sweep: stdlib + examples + issue repros + FFI C
companions (shared symbol names like ffi_id_i64), expected
stdout/stderr/ir snapshots, specs.md, readme.md, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md,
implementation_plan.md, docs/, issue writeups. Vendored stb_image and
historical flow state left untouched.
zig build test: 426/426; examples suite: 595/595.
For UFCS dispatch on foreign-class receivers (`#foreign #objc_class`
aliases), `resolveCallParamTypes` was returning an empty slice — both
`resolveFuncByName(qualified)` and `fn_ast_map.get(qualified)` miss
for `#foreign` methods (they live in `foreign_class_map`, not the
regular fn maps). With `param_types` empty, the per-arg `target_type`
assignment in `lowerCall` was skipped, leaving `self.target_type` as
whatever it held on entry — usually the enclosing function's return
type. Inside a `-> BOOL` method, `xx ptr` then lowered with target
type `i8`: `ptrtoint ptr to i64` → `trunc i64 to i8`, sending the low
byte of the pointer through.
Symptom: chess on iOS-sim crashed in
`-[NSNotificationCenter addObserver:selector:name:object:]` with
`observer = 0xC0` (low byte of the SxAppDelegate receiver) when the
AppDelegate method's first param was renamed to anything other than
`self`. The original session diagnosed it as a `self`-vs-`this`
hardcoding in `lower.zig`, but those hardcoded `"self"` strings are
all on compiler-synthesized parameters (init scopes, JNI stubs,
property IMPs, dealloc IMPs) — not the user-facing #objc_class body
params. The bug was in arg-type resolution.
Fix walks `foreign_class_map` + `findForeignMethodInChain` to recover
the declared param types (skipping the implicit `*Self` for instance
methods). Regression test `examples/issue-0044.sx` exercises the
BOOL-return + foreign-class arg shape; pre-fix the receiver round-trip
prints WRONG, post-fix it prints ok.
