Fail actionably when vendor submodules are missing

A user downloaded the auto-generated 'Source code' zip from the release
(no submodules) and hit the raw 'load failed for vendor/irregex/irregex.scm'.
cli.ss and make now check for vendor/irregex up front and print the fix
(clone --recurse-submodules / git submodule update --init --recursive);
README documents both and warns that GitHub's source archives can't build.
Release notes updated with the same pointer.

# different Chez version may emit byte-different (gensym/order) output, so the
# byte-fixpoint is a dev-machine check, not a CI one (jolt-8479).
