agra b9cfe2554f refactor(ffi-linkage): Phase 9.3/9.4 — purge 'foreign' from issues/*.md; GATE PASS
Rewrote 20 issue writeups to the extern/runtime-class vocabulary (#foreign→extern,
foreign_class_map→runtime_class_map, parseForeignClassDecl→parseRuntimeClassDecl,
findForeignMethodInChain→findRuntimeMethodInChain, dedupeForeignSymbol→
dedupeExternSymbol, is_foreign_c_api→is_extern_c_api, stale filename refs to the
renamed examples, foreign-class→runtime-class, bare foreign→extern). Renamed
issues/0043-…-foreign-class-…→…-runtime-class-….

PHASE 9 COMPLETE — 9.4 GATE PASSES: zero 'foreign' across src/library/examples/
issues/docs/editors/specs/readme/CLAUDE, excluding only the SQLite API constant
SQLITE_CONSTRAINT_FOREIGNKEY + vendored sqlite3.c/.h (upstream third-party).
Suite green (644 corpus / 443 unit, 0 failed).

# 0102 — flat-import same-name function collision (per-source binding)
**RESOLVED.** Two **flat** imports (bare `#import "a.sx"` / a flat directory
import, NOT a namespaced `ns :: #import`) that each author a top-level free
function with the **same short name** collided in IR lowering. The flat/
directory merge keeps exactly **one** author per name in the merged decl list
(first-wins), and every bare-name consumer site — call dispatch, default-arg
expansion, function-value capture, free-function UFCS, comptime `#run` — read
that one **name-keyed** winner. So when module `b.sx` authored its own `greet`
but `a.sx` was imported first, `b.sx`'s own bare `greet()` silently bound
`a.sx`'s author. Unlike issue 0100 (which crashed on a param-count assert when
the AST/FuncId split across modules), this miscompiled **silently**: the wrong
same-name author ran, with no diagnostic.
The defect had two faces, both rooted in name-keyed identity across a flat
collision:
1. **Lowering** keyed function bodies by short name (`fn_ast_map` /
`resolveFuncByName` are first-wins), so a shadowed author never got its own
FuncId or body — there was nothing to bind even if a consumer wanted the
per-source author.
2. **Resolution** at every bare-name consumer site re-looked-up the winner by
name, so even once shadow authors had distinct FuncIds, the consumer sites
kept binding the first-wins winner.
## Fix — four sub-steps (`src/imports.zig`, `src/ir/lower.zig`)
- **0102a — retain dup authors + identity indexes.** The flat/directory merge
keeps first-wins in the merged scope (unchanged), but now *also* retains
every dropped same-name author in `program_index.module_fns`
(`path → name → *FnDecl`) plus a `flat_import_graph` (`file → flat-import
edges`). Resolution is untouched at this step — the indexes just make the
shadowed authors addressable.
- **0102b — identity-addressable function lowering.** `fn_decl_fids`
(`*const ast.FnDecl → FuncId`) lets a body be declared + lowered against a
**specific** `*FnDecl` (`lowerFunctionBodyInto` / `bareAuthorFuncId`) instead
of a name. A shadow author gets a fresh same-name FuncId in its own module's
visibility context; the winner keeps the name-keyed slot. `scanDecls` keys
`fn_decl_fids` by the stable `module_fns` `*FnDecl`.
- **0102c — THE resolver + call path + param typing.**
`resolveBareCallee(name, caller_file) -> .func(ResolvedAuthor) | .ambiguous |
.none` (`src/ir/lower.zig`). It returns `.none` whenever the outcome would
equal first-wins (single author, or own-author == winner), so every
single-author / local / parameter / std / qualified / extern / generic /
builtin name resolves byte-for-byte as before. Only a genuine flat collision
reroutes: own-author wins; else the caller's flat-reachable authors — `≥2`
distinct → `.ambiguous` (loud "qualify the call" diagnostic), exactly one
differing from the winner → bind it. Routed the **primary call path** and the
call's **parameter target typing** (so a `*T`-param shadow gets implicit
address-of, not a value bit-cast to a pointer → segfault).
- **0102d — the four remaining bare-name sites.** Routed the SAME resolver
through every other site that resolved a bare callee/function-name by
first-wins, each gated exactly as the call path (plain top-level identifier,
no scope-mangle / UFCS alias / local shadow; act on `.func` / `.ambiguous`,
fall through on `.none`):
1. **Default-argument expansion** (`expandCallDefaults`): omitted trailing
args fill from the RESOLVED author's defaults, not the winner's.
2. **Function-value conversion** (`closure(fn)` and the bare-fn-as-value
`func_ref` / fn-ptr / closure-coercion path): captures the resolved
author's FuncId. The winner's body is lazily lowered ONLY on the `.none`
fallback — a rerouted value never uses the winner, so taking a shadow as a
value must not pre-lower (and possibly mis-diagnose) the winner's body.
3. **Free-function UFCS** (`recv.fn()``fn(recv, …)`): dispatches the
resolved author for the receiver's source.
4. **Comptime `#run`** of a bare call: `lowerMainAndComptime` now sets
`current_source_file` per decl, so a `NAME :: #run f()` in an imported
module resolves `f` from THAT module's flat imports (own-author wins)
rather than the main file's perspective (where two flat authors made it
spuriously `.ambiguous` and failed the build).
## Regression tests
`examples/0722``0735` (each a focused multi-file flat-collision scene that
fails on pre-fix code and passes after):
- `0722-modules-flat-same-name-own` — own-author wins on the call path.
- `0723-modules-flat-vs-namespaced` — a flat author + a namespaced same-name
author don't collide.
- `0724-modules-flat-same-name-ambiguous``≥2` flat authors, bare call →
loud diagnostic.
- `0725-modules-flat-dir-same-name` — flat **directory** import collision.
- `0726-modules-flat-same-name-variadic` — per-source variadic packing.
- `0728-modules-flat-same-name-paramtype` — per-source parameter target typing
(value vs pointer param).
- `0729-modules-flat-same-name-extern` — same-name `extern` authors are NOT
rerouted (non-plain authors keep first-wins).
- `0730-modules-flat-same-name-default-arg` — per-source default-arg expansion.
- `0731-modules-flat-same-name-closure` — per-source `closure(fn)` + bare
fn-value capture.
- `0732-modules-flat-same-name-ufcs` — per-source free-function UFCS dispatch.
- `0733-modules-flat-same-name-comptime-run` — per-source comptime `#run`
callee.
- `0734-modules-flat-same-name-ufcs-ambiguous``≥2` flat authors, UFCS call
→ loud diagnostic (pre-fix: silently bound the winner).
- `0735-modules-flat-same-name-fn-value-winner` — the first-wins winner's body
is independently broken and never used; a shadow taken as a function value
binds the shadow and runs while the winner is NOT lowered (pre-fix: the
fn-value site eagerly lowered the winner before the resolver rerouted,
surfacing the winner's error for a function the value never touches).
