Fix record field-reorder redefine (jolt-wf4) and builtin-shadowing local names (jolt-fjb1) (#124)
* Don't direct-link a var redefined earlier in the same unit (jolt-wf4)

defrecord/deftype expands to (do (def R (make-deftype-ctor ...)) (def ->R R) ...),
so the ->R alias references R within one compiled unit. Under direct-link a var
ref embeds the cell's root as a compile-time constant, but on a redefine R's old
root is still in place when that unit compiles — the (def R new) sibling hasn't
run yet — so ->R sealed to the stale pre-redef ctor. (defrecord R [x a])
(defrecord R [a x]) (:a (->R 10 20)) read the old [x a] layout and returned 20.

Track the vars a unit (re)defines and force their later in-unit references to the
live indirect deref. The cell is registered only after its own init is emitted,
so a recursive self-reference inside the init still direct-links (it runs after
the def completes); only sibling references after the def go indirect.

* Emit Janet's `in` as a value so a user local can't shadow it (jolt-fjb1)

The back end emits `in` to deref var cells ((in cell :root)) and index
shape-recs. It emitted the bare symbol, so a user local named `in` shadowed
Janet's builtin in the surrounding scope and the generated cell-deref called the
user's value as a function — "<table> called with 2 arguments, possibly expected
1". malli's explainer binds [value in acc], so m/explain hit this on every
schema (m/validate was unaffected — its path doesn't bind `in`).

Embed `in`'s function value at the emit sites (as jolt-call/core-get already
are); a value in head position can't be shadowed. Fixes m/explain on malli
(loaded with JOLT_FEATURES=clj so its .cljc reader-conditionals resolve).

Compiler research (#10)
adds self-hosted compiler is functionally:
 
- The default compile path is the portable pipeline using jolt.analyzer (Clojure) → host-neutral IR → backend.janet.
- The analyzer is itself Clojure, compiled by jolt for true self-hosting.
- bootstrap-fixpoint passes (stage1 == stage2 == stage3): rebuilding the compiler on its own output.
- clojure.core is now self-hosted in the overlay.
- Stateful forms (defmacro/ns/deftype/defmulti/require/in-ns) are interpreted by design.
