Lands the full VM/compiler-API arc on branch reify (701/0 both gates):
- abi(.compiler) ABI replaces abi(.zig) extern compiler + the fake
#library "compiler"; bodiless decl = compiler-API surface, bodied =
user compiler-domain fn (lowered for VM eval, emit-skipped).
- out is a plain sx fn (libc write) — the out builtin deleted; the VM
handles it via host-FFI. trace_resolve + interp_print_frames ported.
- 4B VM-native diagnostics: 1179/1180 render proper comptime type
construction failed: under strict.
- S5a: build_options/set_post_link_callback on abi(.compiler) with
BuildConfig threaded into the VM (green intermediate).
- 0522 fixed (describe(args: []Type)); regression 0638.
Strict deletion-gate down to 4 compiler_call bails (1609/1614/1615/1616)
+ 1654 (legitimate unresolvable-symbol diagnostic).
First read-only compiler-API reflection readers, bound the same way as the
intern/text_of seed (compiler_lib.bound_fns + Vm.callCompilerFn, native on flat
memory, no marshaling). A type handle is a plain u32 TypeId (like StringId), so
both stay clean scalar host-calls:
find_type(name: StringId) -> TypeId (TypeTable.findByName; unresolved/0 if absent)
type_field_count(t: TypeId) -> i64 (new TypeTable.memberCount; loud-bail, no silent 0)
memberCount is the single source both the legacy handler and the VM read, so the
two paths can't drift. find_type returns a non-optional TypeId using the
unresolved(0) sentinel for not-found rather than ?Type — a Type value is
.any-typed (which the flat-memory VM does not represent) and an optional can't
cross the legacy<->VM eval boundary; unresolved is the project-blessed "no type"
marker.
Example 0628 chains intern -> find_type -> type_field_count (+ a not-found
lookup), folded at #run, VM-HANDLED natively. VM unit test added.
Parity 689/689 (gate OFF and -Dcomptime-flat).
