agra 9719432e79 refactor(ffi-linkage): Phase 9.3 — purge remaining 'foreign' from library/docs/example comments
Capital-Foreign + stale-identifier comment refs: library (Foreign Java types→Runtime,
foreign-class→runtime-class, foreign_class_map→runtime_class_map); docs/debugger
(foreign call→extern call); docs/fork-c ledger (foreign_class_map, protocol/foreign→
runtime-class); docs/inline-asm-design Deviation-6 obsolete #foreign-vs-extern design
RESOLVED to the landed extern/export reality; example comments (parseForeignClassDecl→
parseRuntimeClassDecl, checkForeignRefs→checkExternRefs, Foreign decls→Extern). Docs/
comments only — no build impact.

// Extern `-> [:0]u8` / `-> ?[:0]u8` returns: C hands back ONE `char *`;
// the fat sx string is synthesized at the call boundary ({ptr, strlen};
// NULL maps to the optional's null / an empty string) — issue 0128.
// Pre-fix, the call read the pointer register pair as {ptr, len} and the
// length was garbage (bus error on print).
