//! LLVM IR text emitter for AILang (MVP).
//!
//! Third stage of the compiler pipeline (`core` → `check` → `codegen`
//! → `ail` CLI). Consumes a fully type-checked [`Module`] (single-file
//! mode) or [`Workspace`] (multi-module mode) and produces LLVM IR as
//! a UTF-8 string ready to be written as a `.ll` file and handed to
//! `clang`. The two entry points are [`emit_ir`] (single module) and
//! [`lower_workspace`] (multi-module); both share the same mangling
//! scheme and ABI.
//!
//! Strategy: we generate LLVM IR as a string, write it as `.ll`, and
//! link it with `clang`. No binding to a specific libllvm version.
//!
//! Type mapping:
//! - `Int` -> `i64`
//! - `Bool` -> `i1`
//! - `Unit` -> `i8` (value always 0)
//!
//! Mangling scheme (Iter 5c):
//! - **All** AILang functions become `@ail_<module>_<def>`. This holds
//!   even for single-module programs. The old form `@ail_<def>` is gone.
//! - Global string/constant symbols are mangled per module:
//!   `@.str_<module>_<idx>` and `@ail_<module>_<def>` for constant globals.
//! - The entry point remains `main` (LLVM/C ABI). [`lower_workspace`]
//!   emits `define i64 @main() { call @ail_<entry-module>_main() ... }`
//!   as a trampoline to the entry module's `main`. If missing, the
//!   build fails with [`CodegenError::MissingEntryMain`].
//! - `source_filename` appears exactly once at the top, with
//!   `<entry-module>.ail` as value (per workspace).
//!
//! **Precondition.** Neither [`emit_ir`] nor [`lower_workspace`] runs
//! the typechecker. Callers must have run `ailang_check::check_module`
//! (or `check_workspace`) first; codegen will panic or emit malformed
//! IR if invariants the checker enforces (resolved metavars, declared
//! effects, ctor arity) are violated.
