agra 82bdcd634a lang F1 2.6: pack-index edge cases (runtime-index error, comptime OOB)
Per locked Decision 1 a pack is comptime-only with no runtime value, so xs[i]
is valid only for a comptime index. lowerIndexExpr now emits a clear error
("pack <p> must be indexed by a compile-time constant ...") for a runtime
index, instead of the confusing "unresolved <p>" the slice-index fall-through
produced. diagPackIndexOOB switched from int-literal-only to comptimeIndexOf so
an inline-for cursor that goes out of bounds is also caught.

Repurposed examples/163-pack-runtime-index.sx (was aspirational: expected
runtime indexing to materialise a []Any slice and print 4, contradicting
Decision 1) into the runtime-index error test. Comptime + OOB cases already
covered by examples/199/200/161. 236 examples + unit green.

// Variadic heterogeneous type packs — Step 2.6: indexing a pack with a
// RUNTIME index is a compile error.
//
// Per locked Decision 1, a pack is comptime-only and has NO runtime
// representation — so `args[i]` is valid only when `i` is a compile-time
// constant (a literal, or an `inline for` cursor). A runtime index (here a
// `while`-loop counter) must produce a clear diagnostic, not the confusing
// "unresolved 'args'" the slice-index fall-through used to give. To walk a
// pack, use `inline for 0..args.len (i) { ... }`, which unrolls so each
// `args[i]` is a comptime index.
