Hojun-Cho 208bdd25df w6c+selfhost: str globals — 16B DATAW + (LEAQ, MOVQ, MOVQ) sequences ...

Extend top-level mutable `let` to cover str. The cgen now:

  - emits a 16-byte zero DATAW for `let s: str;` (and the trivial
    `nil` / `""` inits); a non-empty strlit init is skipped because
    a compile-time .data → .text reloc isn't supported yet, so the
    user gets a clean undefined-symbol error at link;
  - loads `s` as `(LEAQ s(SB), CX; MOVQ (CX), AX; MOVQ 8(CX), BX)`
    so the (AX=ptr, BX=len) pair convention is preserved;
  - stores via the same `&s` indirection for `s = expr;` and routes
    the `.ptr` / `.len` pseudo-field N_DOT branch through it; and
  - tracks the declared type on each LetVar so cgident / cgdot /
    cgassign pick the right load/store shape.

Selfhost cgen mirrors all four paths byte-for-byte; test 990
(cgen-match on err.ww) and tests 994/995 (self-rebuild) stay
green. 630_let_global gains two new fixtures (`let msg: str;` +
runtime assign, plus reassign from a helper).

Slice and struct globals still NYI — same scope deferred.
