AILang/crates/ail/tests/print_no_leak_pin.rs

//! RED-pin for the 2026-05-14 Cat-A heap-Str leak in `print`
//! (uncovered during the per-type-print-op retirement).
//!
//! Property protected: under `--alloc=rc`, evaluating the trivial
//! program `(body (app print 42))` does NOT leak the heap-Str
//! allocated inside `print`'s body. `print`'s body is the explicit-
//! let `let s = show x in do io/print_str s` (see iter 24.3, pinned
//! structurally by `print_mono_body_shape.rs`); `show` at primitive
//! type calls `int_to_str` which returns a fresh heap-Str (slab in
//! `runtime/str.c`). `io/print_str` borrows the Str. At let-scope-
//! close, the binder `s` is the only owner — codegen must emit
//! `ailang_rc_dec(s)`. The runtime stats line at exit must report
//! `live == 0` (equivalently `allocs == frees`).
//!
//! As of commit 301cbc3 this test fails: stderr reports
//! `ailang_rc_stats: allocs=1 frees=0 live=1`. The IR for the post-
//! mono `ail_prelude_print__Int` body contains a `call ptr
//! @ail_prelude_show__Int(...)` followed by `getelementptr +8` +
//! `@fputs` + `ret i8 0` — there is no `ailang_rc_dec` on the
//! show-result before return. Root cause sits at codegen's
//! `is_rc_heap_allocated` App-arm: it reads the callee's
//! `Type::Fn.ret_mode` via `synth_callee_ret_mode` and requires
//! `Own`. The mono'ed `show__Int` inherits its `Type::Fn` from the
//! `Show` class method declaration in `examples/prelude.ail.json`,
//! whose `methods[0].type` omits the `ret_mode` key — `serde` defaults
//! the missing field to `ParamMode::Implicit`. So
//! `synth_callee_ret_mode(show__Int) == Implicit`, the let-binder is
//! not flagged trackable, and `drop_symbol_for_binder` is never
//! called for it.
//!
//! Once the underlying issue is fixed (the canonical move is to
//! recognise that any class-method whose declared `ret` is `Str` /
//! any pointer-typed user type should round-trip as Own through
//! mono, OR to install the Show class declaration with explicit
//! `ret_mode: "own"`, OR to widen `is_rc_heap_allocated`'s App-arm
//! to also consult the callee's ret type-via-Str-carve-out), this
//! test must flip GREEN without weakening the assertion.
