Hojun-Cho dd274315a0 cstage+selfhost+test: wire sret return-forwarding (#9)
Class A compile-time fatal retirement — `return f()` from an sret
callee bailed both stages with "sret return-forwarding for >24B
struct not wired (task #23)" at every site, forcing every caller
into a `let r = f(); return r;` workaround that materialised an
intermediate >24B copy in outer's frame. Forwarding now elides the
copy: outer reloads its own @sretarg into RDI for the inner CALL
via `MOVQ @sretarg(BP), DI` (NOT `LEAQ <local>, DI`), inner writes
directly into outer's caller-prealloc dest, RAX (inner's returned
dest pointer per the sret discipline) is already outer's return
value.

Wires 2 sites × 2 stages (same triangle as #23): caller arg-shift
in cgcall/pushargsrev gains an RDI-source switch via
cg_sret_forward / c.sretforward; callee return-arm in cgreturn
replaces the fail-loud abort with cgexpr-into-cgcall + epilogue.
The @sretscr scratch slot is still pre-allocated on the forwarding
branch (unused) — eliding would need AST-walk awareness in
scanlocals; symmetric-allocate is the simpler path and keeps
byte-id with non-forwarding callers.

Latent surfaced and filed during probe (NOT in this commit's
scope): multi-sret-receive in a single fn diverges between stages
— cstage always allocates @sretscr on first sret CALL, wwstage
only when sretdestoff == 0. Bootstrap stays green because the
selfhost corpus has zero >1-sret-receive call sites.

Tests:
  - 721_sret_struct_return gains 2 forwarding rows + a 4th asm-
    presence sentinel: at the inner CALL site inside outer fn, the
    RDI source must be `MOVQ -K(BP), DI` (reload of outer's saved
    @sretarg) NOT `LEAQ -K(BP), DI` (a temporary local would write
    inner's payload into outer's frame, not caller's dest).
  - 925_sret_struct_return_run gains 3 forwarding rows: simple
    quad forward, multi-arg inner (pair-by-value + scalar args
    alongside the hidden RDI), and slice-payload (decoder
    { i64, []u8 } — the utf8 iterator shape, asserts ptr/len/cap
    survive the @sretarg chain).

90/90 ok. 995_self_rebuild stays green (ww2==ww3==ww4 byte-id).
