agra c2178c062b ffi M1.2 A.4b.i: __sx_state ivar registration
Class-pair init constructor now registers a single hidden ivar
on each sx-defined class:

  class_addIvar(cls, "__sx_state", 8, 3, "^v")

before objc_registerClassPair. After the class is registered,
the constructor calls class_getInstanceVariable to fetch the
runtime Ivar handle and stores it in a per-class global
'__<ClassName>_state_ivar : *void'. Trampolines (A.4b.ii) will
read this global to 'object_getIvar' the state struct pointer.

lower.zig declares the per-class global at scan time
(declareObjcDefinedStateIvarGlobal) so emit_llvm finds it by
name when populating. Encoding '^v' = void* (a generic pointer
— the runtime treats it as opaque storage). log2 alignment = 3
for 8-byte pointer alignment on 64-bit.

144-objc-class-ivar-registration.sx exercises the round-trip:
after main starts, class_getInstanceVariable(SxFoo, "__sx_state")
returns non-null. Runs against the real Obj-C runtime on macOS.

142's IR snapshot refreshed to include the new constructor body
(class_addIvar + class_getInstanceVariable + ivar-global store).

173 example tests pass (+1 from 144). zig build test green.

// M1.2 A.4b.i — '__sx_state' ivar registration on sx-defined
// '#objc_class'.
//
// Class-pair init now:
// 1. allocs the class pair
// 2. registers a single '__sx_state : *void' ivar
// 3. finalises the class
// 4. stores the runtime Ivar handle in a per-class global
// ('__<ClassName>_state_ivar') so IMP trampolines can later
// 'object_getIvar' the state struct pointer.
//
// Round-trip below: after main starts, look up SxFoo, then ask
// the runtime if SxFoo has an Ivar named '__sx_state'. Returns
// non-null iff registration succeeded.
//
// IMP trampolines (A.4b.ii) and the '+alloc' / '-dealloc'
// overrides (A.5 / A.6) come next.
