Iter 10: Term::Seq sequencing operator
Adds `Term::Seq { lhs, rhs }` (serde tag "seq") as a first-class
AST node for sequencing effectful expressions. Equivalent in
behaviour to `let _ = lhs in rhs`, but the dedicated node gives the
pretty-printer and diagnostics a cleaner shape and surfaces the
intent ("run for effect, then yield rhs") to future tooling.
Typecheck: lhs must be Unit; rhs's type is the result; effects
accumulate.
Codegen: lower lhs (drop SSA), lower rhs (return).
Capture / deps walkers: recurse into both sides.
Refactored examples/list_map.ail.json's print_list to use seq
instead of `let _ = ...`. Output unchanged (2/4/6).
Hash stability: existing examples without Term::Seq serialise
bit-identical; only list_map.ail.json's hashes changed (deliberate
refactor).
Tests: 51 green (was 50). New unit test
`ailang_check::tests::seq_lhs_must_be_unit` covers the type-error
path; existing list_map e2e covers the happy path.
