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.
K : [4]s64 : .[...] and the untyped A :: .[1, 2, 3] register as
is_const globals: one storage, reads GEP it, dead-global elimination
drops unused ones, source-aware reads come free via selectGlobalAuthor.
- registerConstArrayGlobal (scanDecls pass 2): typed via the annotation
(array-ness + dimension/count checked), untyped via element-type
unification — all ints s64; ANY float promotes the element type to
f64 with ints converting exactly; bool/string homogeneous; a
non-numeric mix or non-inferable element asks for an annotation.
- constExprValue converts int elements into float destinations exactly
(the int+float promotion rule, element-wise).
- emitGlobals marks is_const globals LLVMSetGlobalConstant — also flips
the comptime-backed #run globals and __sx_default_context to
'constant' (37 pinned IR snapshots regenerated; runtime unchanged).
- Element shapes: nested arrays, struct elements, strings, bools.
Non-constant elements / dim mismatch / mixed types diagnose loudly.
Examples: 0177 (feature matrix incl. @K reads through *[4]s64 — needs
the 0117 fix), 1159/1160/1161 (diagnostics), 0837 repointed to values.
