ref/hare/strings/dup.ha:26-35. Returns ([]str | nomem); duplicates
every str in the input slice via the now-graduated alloc-slice
builtin (#45 unblocked `let s: []str = alloc([], n)?`). Loop body
uses appendstr because `[]str` element is 16B and the bare `append`
builtin truncates (#11) — pre-allocated cap=s.len means rt_ensure's
grow branch never fires.
Defer-rollback omitted: with `dup()` still unchecked (graduation
tracked by #46), the only nomem source is the initial slice alloc,
so there is no partial state to roll back. Will revisit when #46
lands.
Empty-input early-return short-circuits via {nil,0,0} because
rt_alloc(0) is an mmap of 0 bytes which the kernel rejects with
-EINVAL — Hare hands back a sentinel. Localized at the call site
pending #47.
Tests assert independent allocations at every index of multi-element
inputs, including a multibyte row.
