* Bind *command-line-args* after the deps-image cache swap (jolt-4mui)
Under whole-program (deps-image cache active), `jolt -m NS ARG` dropped ARG:
run-main set *command-line-args* on the current ctx, but a cache HIT then
replaced ctx with the saved image (via `set ctx cached`), whose *command-line-
args* was whatever got baked when the image was saved. The stale binding won at
`(apply NS/-main *command-line-args*)`, so -main ran with the wrong (usually
default) args — silently, for any optimized -m program.
Move set-command-line-args to AFTER the cache swap so it binds on the final ctx.
Repro/regression in deps-cache-args-test.janet: first run builds the image
(arg "first"), second run (cache hit) must echo "second", not the baked "first".
* docs: RFC 0003 — phm is a HAMT, sorted colls a red-black tree
The transients RFC described phm as "bucket-based copy-on-write" and mused about
"if it ever becomes a HAMT" — it is one now (jolt-684u), and sorted maps/sets are
a red-black tree (jolt-0hbr). Update the deviation/future-work notes accordingly.

Fixed arities now throw Clojure's ArityException shape — 'Wrong number of
args (N) passed to: name' — on any count mismatch; variadic arities on fewer
than their fixed params. The compiled path already enforced fixed arities via
janet's native fn check and multi-arity dispatch; this adds the check to the
interpreter's single-arity closures (the oracle was silently dropping extra
args and giving a raw tuple-index error for missing ones) and guards the
compiled single-variadic wrapper's minimum. Messages carry the fn name when
there is one. 16 spec rows; the update.cljc suite row flipped green (4703 ->
4704).
Enforcement exposed that seq-to-map-for-destructuring had drifted: the spec
row called the 1-arity fn with two args, and the body silently dropped a
trailing unpaired element. Replaced with the canonical Clojure 1.11 version
(even pairs build the map, a single trailing element passes through — so
(f {:b 2}) kwargs calls work — and an unpaired key throws).
Also: transients RFC notes tuple support from the seed-shrink rounds.
Pins down what a transient is in Jolt (tagged table over a native Janet
array/table, canonical-keyed for maps/sets), where behavior deviates from the
JVM (O(n) transient/persistent! edges with O(1) native ops between, no
owner-thread check — same as Clojure 1.7+, transient-of-list leniency), and
the three reasons the machinery is seed-resident rather than a migration
candidate: it IS the mutation kernel, it sits under the seed's own dispatch,
and the value layer is declared irreducible. Exists so the kernel-shrink
ladder (jolt-tzo) doesn't revisit transients every round.
