Unbox ^double record field reads (#231)

A record field tagged ^double now reads back as a flonum and feeds the numeric
pass, so hintless arithmetic over those fields lowers to fl-ops — the leaf-numeric
analog of the ^Vec3 nested-field hints. Combined with the whole-program :double
param inference, a vec3-dot over a ^double-fielded record unboxes end to end with
no per-fn hints.

records.ss: a ^double field tag passes through resolution, and the ctor (and a
mutable-field set!) coerce a ^double field to a flonum — JVM primitive-field
parity (jolt returned an exact 1, not 1.0, before), and what makes reading the
field back as :double sound for an fl-op.

types.clj: field-type-from-tag maps "double" -> :double, and a keyword/get lookup
whose result is :double annotates the node :num-read :double. numeric.clj reads
that annotation and classifies the field read as a :double operand, so the
enclosing arithmetic specializes — the read itself keeps its jrec-field-at/jolt-get
emit.

run-fieldnum.ss gate: ctor coercion (int field -> flonum), field-field arithmetic
emitting fl*/fl+, and an untagged field staying generic. make test / shakesmoke
green, selfhost holds, 0 new divergences.
