6f433a1b3c Make blocking socket FFI collect-safe; fix http-client temp-file race
Two thread-safety bugs in the native FFI layer.

The HTTP server's accept/recv/send were plain foreign-procedures. A thread
inside a foreign call stays active for the stop-the-world collector, so the
accept loop sitting idle in accept() froze GC for the whole process whenever
another thread (a future, an async block) allocated. Mark the three blocking
calls __collect_safe so the thread deactivates for the call's duration —
collection proceeds while the accept thread waits. The args are an fd and
foreign-alloc'd buffers (outside the Scheme heap), so a collection mid-call has
nothing to move.

jolt.http-client built its -D header-file path from an unguarded (set! counter
(+ counter 1)) and counter mod 90000, with no per-process component. Concurrent
requests could compute the same path and clobber each other's headers. Use a
mutex-guarded monotonic counter plus the pid.

test/chez/ffi-server-test.ss exercises both (a (collect) while the server is
idle in accept(), temp-path uniqueness across threads, and a live request) and
is wired into the gate as `make ffi`.

b251e9166e jolt.http-client (curl-backed) + format width/justify flags
A synchronous HTTP client def-var!'d into jolt.http-client (get/post/put/delete/
head/request -> {:status :headers :body}), with :headers, :body, :query-params,
:content-type and :insecure?. It shells out to the system `curl` rather than a
direct libcurl FFI: on Apple Silicon curl_easy_setopt is variadic and Chez's
fixed-signature foreign-procedure can't place the value arg on the stack where
the ABI expects it, so a direct bind silently drops the option. curl gives the
same native TLS/redirect/gzip with no per-platform C shim.

format now honours width and the -/0 flags (%-30s, %5d, %05d), not just %.Nf
precision — it was emitting the directive literally.
