agra 023971cae5 feat(lang): universal backtick raw identifier — valid in value, decl, AND type position [F0.6]
AGRA ruling (attempt 4): `` `name `` is THE LITERAL identifier `name`, usable in
EVERY position — the backtick only means "treat this token as a plain identifier,
never the reserved keyword/type", and is never part of the name's text.

- Raw in TYPE position is now VALID (reverses attempt-2 "raw is not a type"):
  `parseTypeExpr` emits a raw `type_expr`; `TypeResolver.resolveNamed` gains a
  `skip_builtin` flag (threaded from `te.is_raw` via lower.zig + type_bridge) so a
  `` `s2 `` reference resolves to a `` `s2 ``-declared type (struct/enum/union/alias),
  else a normal "unknown type 's2'" error (reportIfUnknownType skips the builtin
  exemption when raw). Bare `s2` in type position stays the builtin int.
- Every declaration-name site is is_raw-exemptible: `is_raw` added to TypeExpr +
  StructDecl/EnumDecl/UnionDecl/ErrorSetDecl/ProtocolDecl/ForeignClassDecl/UfcsAlias/
  NamespaceDecl/ImportDecl/CImportDecl/LibraryDecl; parser threads name_is_raw to
  every decl parse fn; namespace imports carry it through imports.addNamespace.
  Typed-const path (`` `s2 : s64 : 5 ``) now threads name_span+is_raw (fixes the
  1:1-caret bug).
- Check<->exemption made structurally symmetric: checkBindingName/checkDeclName take
  is_raw as a REQUIRED argument and skip inside the check, so no call site can
  validate a name without honoring the exemption (the desync cause of prior rounds).
- Bare reserved-name declarations of every kind still error (0076 preserved);
  `#import c` foreign names stay auto-raw + bare-callable.

specs.md + readme.md updated to the universal model. issue 0089 RESOLVED banner
rewritten. Examples: replace 1139 (raw-not-a-type) with 0154 (raw type reference);
add 0155 (typed const + union tag) and 1141 (bare type-decl negatives).
Gate: zig build + zig build test + run_examples (426 passed, 0 failed).

// Backtick raw-identifier escape: a leading backtick makes the following
// identifier RAW — its text excludes the backtick and it is never the
// reserved/builtin keyword, so a reserved type-name spelling (`s2`, `u8`, …)
// can be used as an ordinary identifier. Exercised in every VALUE position:
// global, local, param, struct field + member access, function name + call,
// and a later reference. (A raw identifier in TYPE position references a
// backtick-declared type instead — see examples/0154.) A *bare* `s2` is still
// the reserved type name (see examples/1119), so the escape is the only way to
// spell these as values.
// Regression (issue 0089).
#import "modules/std.sx";
// Global named with a reserved type spelling.
`u8 := 100;
// Function whose name is a reserved type spelling, with a reserved-name param.
`s2 :: (`s1: s64) -> s64 { return `s1 * 2; }
Point :: struct {
`s2: f64; // field name is a reserved type spelling
`u16: s64;

main :: () {
// Local with a reserved type spelling; later reference resolves to it.

`s64 = `s64 + 1;
