c91b6092bc ffi: foreign-callable — receive callbacks from C
jolt could call C (foreign-fn -> foreign-procedure) but C could not call back
into jolt, which GTK signals (and any callback-taking C API) require. Add the
inverse: jolt.ffi/foreign-callable wraps a jolt fn as a C-callable function
pointer, mirroring the foreign-fn pipeline.

A new jolt.ffi/__ccallable special form carries the fn as a child expression
(analyzed + walked by the passes; ir.clj gains an :ffi-callable arm in both
child walks) plus literal arg/ret type keywords. The back end lowers it to a
locked Chez foreign-callable and returns its entry-point address as a jolt
pointer; host/chez/ffi.ss registers the code object so the collector keeps it,
and free-callable unlocks it. :collect-safe emits the convention that
reactivates the thread on entry, for callbacks fired while it is parked in a
:blocking call (a GTK main loop).

Test: ffi-binding-test.ss sorts an int array through libc qsort with a jolt
comparator (C -> jolt -> C). Re-minted seed.

33eff7c7d8 Clean up codebase: rename stdlib layer, strip porting residue, fix tooling
Rename src/jolt -> stdlib (the runtime-loaded layer; jolt-core stays the
seed-baked layer) and update the loader / emit-image / doc paths. Drop dead
code: the spike/ experiments, the duplicate clojuredocs-export.edn (json moves
to tools/), the Janet-era jolt.http binding, and the orphaned
persistent_vector.clj whose ns/path didn't even match.

Strip porting residue from comments and docstrings across host/chez, jolt-core,
stdlib, tests, and docs: internal issue ids, "Phase N" markers, and the "vs
Janet" historical exposition, leaving present-tense descriptions and the real
JVM-Clojure semantic contrasts. Same pass over the corpus suite labels. The seed
is unchanged (docstrings/comments aren't emitted), so the self-host fixpoint and
corpus are untouched.

Port tools/spec_coverage.py off the dead janet probe to bin/joltc and regenerate
coverage.md; drop the dead :host/janet rule from certify.clj and regenerate the
conformance profile. Add docs/host-interop.md (the JVM shims and how to register
your own host class from a library) and a writing-style note in CLAUDE.md.

Stabilize the four racy concurrency corpus cases (future-cancel and agent
send/send-off): give the future a sleeping body and the agent a slow action, so
cancel reliably catches an in-flight future and deref reliably reads the
pre-update snapshot. They certify deterministically now, so drop their :flaky
allowlist entries and the orphaned legend.
