Chez Phase 3 inc 5a: port reader atom layer to jolt.reader (Clojure)

Starts taking the reader off Janet (src/jolt/reader.janet, 831 lines) into
portable jolt-core Clojure. jolt.reader holds the lexing/parsing LOGIC; form
construction + string->number parsing delegate to the jolt.host contract — a
Clojure source file can't write a {:jolt/type :symbol} literal (parses as a
tagged form) and the concrete representation is the host's to own. Same split the
analyzer/emitter already use. Once cross-compiled this runs on Chez so compile-
from-source needs no Janet reader.

inc 5a = the atom layer: whitespace/comments, symbols (+ nil/true/false),
keywords, strings (escapes), numbers (sign/hex/radix/ratio/fractional/exponent,
trailing N/M), characters. Collections, quote/deref/meta and dispatch (#) follow
in 5b/5c (throw not-yet-ported). Positions are char indices (Janet uses bytes);
identical for ASCII and the gate compares form VALUES, not positions.

host_iface.janet gains four reader primitives on the contract: form-make-symbol,
form-make-char, form-char-from-name, form-scan-number (the irreducible host bits
the portable reader rests on). Additive — new jolt.host interns, nothing else
changed.

Surfaced jolt-if19 (Janet seed reader: +N literals error instead of reading as N;
read-number strips only the - sign). The port reproduces it; both-throw counts as
faithful parity in the gate.

Gate: reader-parity 64/64 (symbols/keywords/strings/ints/hex/radix/ratio/floats/
exponent/N-M/chars). Full jpm gate green after clean rebuild, conformance 355x3.
jolt-50xx.

"Portable Clojure reader: source text -> reader forms (Chez Phase 3, jolt-cf1q.4).
The no-Janet replacement for src/jolt/reader.janet. All the lexing/parsing LOGIC
is portable Clojure; form CONSTRUCTION and string->number parsing delegate to the
jolt.host contract (form-make-symbol/char, form-char-from-name, form-scan-number)
a Clojure source file cannot write a {:jolt/type :symbol} literal (it parses as
a tagged reader form), and the concrete form representation is the host's to own.
Same split the analyzer uses for the form-* readers. Once cross-compiled this runs
ON Chez so compile-from-source needs no Janet reader.
Positions are CHARACTER indices (the Janet reader uses byte indices); for ASCII
source they coincide, and form VALUES are identical either way the parity gate
compares values, not positions.
INCREMENT 5a (jolt-50xx): the ATOM layer whitespace/comments, symbols (+ nil/
true/false), keywords, strings, numbers (sign/hex/radix/ratio/fractional/
exponent, trailing N/M), characters. Collections, quote/deref/meta, and dispatch
(#) land in 5b/5c (they throw not-yet-ported so a hit is loud)."
