agra 3c4305f78f comptime enum value params: $o: EnumType binds+resolves variant tag
A comptime value param whose constraint is a plain enum ($o: Ord) now
binds its enum-literal argument to the variant tag during inlined
comptime-call lowering. The tag is recorded in comptime_value_bindings
(readable downstream via comptimeIntNamed / direct map lookup, and as an
array-dim style const-int leaf) AND the param is bound into scope as an
enum_init value so body comparisons like 'if o == .a' lower as ordinary
enum comparisons. Distinct ordering args monomorphize the inlined body
per value.

A non-constant argument or an unknown variant emits a loud diagnostic
and binds nothing — never a silent default.

// Comptime ENUM value parameter: `$o: <EnumType>` binds the enum-literal
// argument to its variant tag, monomorphizes the inlined body per distinct
// ordering value, and resolves `o` in the body as a compile-time-known enum
// constant — usable both in `if o == .a` comparisons AND as a comptime-readable
// variant tag during lowering (a downstream lowerer reads it via
// `comptime_value_bindings`, exercised here as the `[o]i64` array dimension).
