agra cd5b958d19 comptime compiler-API: Phase 1 foundation + Phase 2.1 weld plan
Introduce the welded comptime `compiler` library (`#library "compiler"` +
`abi(.zig) extern compiler`), per design/comptime-compiler-api.md, and unify
`callconv(...)` into the new `abi(...)` annotation.

abi(...) replaces callconv(...):
- New ABI enum { default, c, zig, pure }; `abi(.c|.zig|.pure)` parses in the
  postfix slot before extern/export (and standalone). `kw_callconv` -> `kw_abi`.
- Migrated 52 sx files, the call-convention-mismatch diagnostic, and docs
  (readme/specs) from `callconv(.c)` to `abi(.c)`.

Phase 1 — welded compiler library (parse -> registry -> validation -> bridge):
- `abi(.zig) extern compiler` parses on fn decls (carries abi/extern_lib) and
  struct decls (StructDecl.abi/extern_lib).
- `#library "compiler"` is the comptime-only internal surface — never dlopen'd.
- src/ir/compiler_lib.zig: the binding registry (the safety boundary). `Field`
  welded to StructInfo.Field with layout baked from the real Zig type
  (@offsetOf/@sizeOf); `findType`/`findFn`. Welded structs are layout-validated
  at registration (field set + total size) as a header checked against the impl.
- Host-call bridge: a `fn abi(.zig) extern compiler` dispatches under the
  comptime interp to its registered Zig handler (intern/text_of round-trip),
  never dlsym. IR Function.compiler_welded; validated in declareFunction.
- Comptime-only enforcement: a runtime call to a welded fn is a clean
  build-gating error (emitCall), not an undefined-symbol link failure.

Phase 2.1 — byte-layout weld foundation:
- Decision: full byte-layout weld (sx struct laid out byte-identically to the
  bound Zig type). Registered StructInfo (first non-natural / Zig-reordered
  layout). `computeWeldPlan` — pure offset-ordered element plan + padding +
  sx-field->LLVM-element remap; unit-tested. Emit/interp wiring is the next
  sub-step (2.2+, see current/CHECKPOINT-COMPILER-API.md).

Examples: 0625/0626 (welded struct + fn round-trip), 1183/1184/1185
(layout-mismatch, unexported-fn, runtime-call diagnostics).

// Phase 1 step 1.8 (PLAN-FFI.md): >16 B non-HFA struct returns
// through `#objc_call`. AAPCS64 routes these through the indirect-
// return convention: caller allocates the result slot, passes its
// pointer in x8 with the `sret(<T>)` attribute, callee writes
// through it and returns void.
//
// Register a runtime-built Obj-C class with a method that returns
// a fixed `Triple`. The IMP is a plain sx fn (abi .c) — its
// sret-shaped lowering already works (Phase 0.3 fix for plain
// `extern` returns). The `#objc_call` dispatch side now produces
// the matching call shape: `call void @objc_msgSend(ptr sret %slot,
// ...)` + load. The two halves must agree on the ABI for the
// round-trip to return the right bytes.
