Resolve optional libc entries at runtime, not boot load

A literal (foreign-procedure "chmod" ...) in compiled code becomes a fasl
relocation resolved when the boot loads — on Windows (no chmod/sigemptyset/
sigaddset in the CRT) that killed joltc.exe before any guard could run
(msvcrt abort, exit 3). jolt-foreign-proc-safe defers the lookup through
eval at evaluation time, where the guard works and a missing entry just
yields the fallback. chmod also skips the /bin/sh fallback on nt (execute
is by extension).
