Yogthos 1d345bfd0f jolt build: bundle native libs + resources into standalone binaries
A built binary dropped its deps.edn :jolt/native declarations and its
resource roots, so an FFI+resources app (ring-app) failed at runtime:
sockets/sqlite gave 'no entry for socket' and io/resource returned nil.
The buildsmoke fixture is pure compute, so neither path was exercised.

The launcher now loads required + :process native libs before the app's
top-level forms (a library's defcfn resolves its foreign-procedure symbols
at top-level eval during startup, so the libs must be loaded first);
optional libs load in the scheme-start launcher, where a missing lib is
caught rather than aborting the heap build.

deps.edn :jolt/build {:embed [dirs]} bakes those dirs' files into the heap
(register-embedded-resource! at heap build), so io/resource serves them with
no files on disk. Non-embedded resources resolve at runtime against JOLT_PWD,
and io/file reads (e.g. config.edn) stay external.

build-binary now takes the encoded natives, embed dirs, and project paths
from cmd-build; deps/resolve-project surfaces them. Buildsmoke fixture grows
an embedded resource + a :process native to cover both paths.

;; ffi.ss — the runtime side of jolt's foreign-function interface (jolt.ffi).
;;
;; A jolt LIBRARY binds native code itself: it loads a shared object and declares
;; typed foreign functions, then exposes a Clojure API. The TYPED CALL is lowered
;; at compile time to a Chez `foreign-procedure` by the backend (the
;; `jolt.ffi/foreign-fn` special form) — this file provides everything that does
;; NOT need compile-time types: loading libraries, allocating/reading/writing
;; foreign memory, and string/pointer marshaling. All exposed under `jolt.ffi`.
;;
;; A foreign pointer is a Chez machine address (an exact integer / uptr), the same
;; representation `void*` arguments and results use, so pointers flow between
;; foreign-fn calls and these helpers transparently.
;; --- loading shared objects --------------------------------------------------
;; (jolt.ffi/load-library name) loads a .so/.dylib by name (resolved by the OS
;; loader against the standard search paths). A library typically calls this once
;; at load with a platform-specific name. (load-library) with no name (or #f)
;; loads the running process's own symbols (libc, sockets).
