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.
Coercion classification now lives in src/ir/conversions.zig behind a *Lowering
facade (CoercionResolver), mirroring CallResolver / GenericResolver /
ProtocolResolver. Two pure classifiers:
- classify(src, dst) -> CoercionPlan (15 kinds: no_op / unbox_any / box_any /
closure_to_fn_reject / tuple_elementwise / optional_unwrap / void_to_optional /
optional_wrap / erase_protocol / int_to_float / float_to_int / ptr_int_bitcast /
widen / narrow / none) — the built-in coercion ladder.
- classifyXX(src, dst) -> XXPlan (unbox_any / no_op / erase_protocol /
protocol_to_pointer / coerce) — the xx-operator head.
coerceToType and lowerXX now `switch (classify…)` then emit; branch order
mirrors the originals exactly and every arm reproduces the prior lowering — the
f32/f64 Any match dispatch, buildProtocolErasure (lowerXX) vs buildProtocolValue
(coerceToType), tuple/optional recursion, and the user-Into fallback + pointer
materialization + recursion-guard/diagnostics (which stay in lowerXX /
tryUserConversion). IR emission stays entirely in Lowering; the classifiers are
pure. lowerXX keeps the operand's lowered Ref type as src_ty. `.none` means no
built-in applies (pass through; the Into fallback runs) — no silent default.
New pub: isFloat / isIntEx / typeBitsEx / resolveConcreteTypeName (the classifier
reads them); coercionResolver() accessor. lower.zig net -54 lines.
conversions.test.zig drives CoercionResolver directly: the full classify ladder
(no-op, Any box/unbox, widen/narrow, int<->float, ptr<->int, optional
wrap/unwrap, void->optional, tuple, closure-reject, .none for two unrelated
structs), erase_protocol for a concrete source, and classifyXX (all 5 kinds incl.
protocol-to-pointer vs coerce and pointer-materialization -> coerce).
zig build, zig build test, tests/run_examples.sh (357/0) all green — no .ir churn.
