agra 8a875d354c lang F1 2.7: pack-as-value diagnostics (Phase 2 complete)
Using a bare pack name where a runtime value is required was silent garbage
(f(xs)/return xs produced a stray pointer). Now a clear, context-tailored
compile error: isPackName + diagPackAsValue, caught at lowerVarDecl (storage),
lowerReturn (return), lowerFor (iterate), and an identifier-arm catch-all for
call/other. Storage binds a placeholder so there is no cascade error.

Suggestions point at WORKING fixes -- materialize (..xs), or declare the slice
form ..xs: []P for runtime use. The plan category-B "spread ..xs" is broken
(spreading a comptime pack into a []Any param crashes the LLVM verifier; filed
issue 0053), so the diagnostics steer to the slice-of-protocol variadic instead.

Repurposed examples/162-pack-bare-args.sx (was an aspirational bare-$args->[]Any
auto-materialise, contradicting Decision 1) into the slice-form forward
(..args: []Any). examples/203 is the four-category negative test. specs.md "Pack
as value" updated. 238 examples + unit green.

// Step 2.7 — pack-as-value diagnostics. A pack is comptime-only (Decision 1),
// so using the bare pack name where a runtime value is required is an error,
// with a context-tailored suggestion. All four categories below fire (the
// functions are monomorphized when called from main).
