Hojun-Cho 98460e0220 cstage+selfhost+test: fix nested call-rhs silent zero in structlit fill (3rd of family)
Sister bug to #17 / #18. The structlit-fill helper handled nested
N_STRUCTLIT field values but a struct-typed field whose VALUE is an
N_CALL (call returning a struct, #4 cgreturn ABI) fell through to the
cgexpr-then-AX-store path — landing AX=first qword and silently
dropping DX/CX. For 16B/24B inner returns the trailing 8B/16B stayed
zero (whatever was in the destination slot beforehand).

Fix: a new N_CALL+struct branch in cg_structlit_fill / cgstructlitfill,
placed between the nested-N_STRUCTLIT recursion and the scalar
cgexpr fallthrough. Emits cgexpr -> BX reload (non-BP modes only) ->
MOVQ AX/DX/CX x full + sized tail (MOVL/MOVW/MOVB) per #4's receive
shape.

INVARIANT (commented inline both stages): between cgexpr(N_CALL) and
the AX/DX/CX stores below, no instruction may touch AX/DX/CX. Only
the BX reload (MOVQ srcoff(BP),BX or LEAQ name(SB),BX) is safe.

Sized-tail dispatch is {1->MOVB, 2->MOVW, 4->MOVL, else MOVQ}. Unlike
the scalar fallthrough — which still uses the {1/4/else MOVQ} shape
to stay byte-identical with cstage pending #13 — the new branch is
correctness-by-construction: MOVW for tail==2 only fires on call-rhs
shapes that didn't compile before, and both stages emit it
symmetrically (705's 10B inner row pins this).

Guard `fsz <= 24 && fsz%8 in {0,1,2,4}` mirrors #4's cgreturn ABI:
>24B falls through (sret deferred), and fsz%8 in {3,5,6,7} would need
shift-store — also unsupported by #4. Filed as task #21 (covers both
cgreturn and call-rhs's identical gap).

Two #15 sidesteps, both documented inline:

  1. wwstage's fi.fsz for an inner-struct field is slot-padded
     (8-rounded), not natural — using it would emit 2x MOVQ where
     cstage emits MOVQ+MOVL for a 12B inner. The new wwstage branch
     uses structnaturalsize(csi) to recover the natural size, matching
     cstage's fl->type->size (check.c hands the helper natural sizes).
     This sidesteps #15 without touching its scope.

  2. The outer struct's totsize diverges across stages when
     maxalign<8 (wwstage rounds to 8 universally; cstage to maxalign).
     The 705 test rows pin `x: i64` on the outer to force outer
     maxalign=8, keeping BP offsets stable across stages. Test-side
     sidestep only; also #15 territory.
