agra 83ec2536af lang: catch/onfail error bindings take parens
try foo() catch (e) { }   // legal
try foo() catch e { }     // parse error with a migration hint

Same capture style as the for-loop. All four catch shapes keep working
with the parenthesized binding — block, bare-expression body, and the
== match sugar — and the no-binding forms are unchanged. onfail follows
the same rule (onfail (e) { }); its expression-cleanup form is
disambiguated by the paren-group-before-brace lookahead, so
onfail (f()); stays an expression cleanup.

AST unchanged; the printer renders the parens; the #run escape help
text updated. Corpus migrated (57 catch + 3 onfail bindings, in-source
parser test strings, specs incl. grammar rules, readme untouched —
no catch examples there).

Regression: examples/1157-diagnostics-catch-binding-needs-parens.sx;
re-captured stderr for 1010/1013/1037/1123 (migrated source echoed in
carets + help text).

// Generic function with a value-carrying `!` return composes (ERR E5.1
// sub-feature 8). A `$T: Type` generic whose return is `(T, !E)` monomorphizes
// per call: `return try f()` propagates the closure's error, and each
// monomorphization's success value flows through as the concrete `T`.
// (Regression: confirms issue 0062 was an invalid-syntax repro — the bug only
// appeared with the non-generic `T: Type` form; the `$T` form works.)
