31715bd251 ffi 0.5: string + byte-pointer baseline through #foreign
92/92 regression tests pass (+ffi-05-string-args).

Covers the four shapes that actually appear at the sx ↔ C boundary
today:

  1. [:0]u8 string literal -> const char*  (ffi_strlen, ffi_first_byte)
  2. sx `string` value via .ptr            (slice-decay branch in
                                            coerceArg pulls the pointer)
  3. [*]u8 raw buffer + length             (ffi_sum_bytes, mutated via
                                            ffi_write_byte and read back)
  4. C-returned const char*                (round-trips back as [*]u8)

The mutate-via-C path catches any pointer-aliasing regression — sx
allocates the fixed array `bytes : [4]u8`, passes `.ptr` to C which
writes index 1, and the sx side reads `bytes[1]` to confirm the
mutation took effect through the same memory.
