Brummel 09fb5bb113 Iter 18c.2: linearity check + suggested_rewrites
Adds a per-fn linearity check that runs on every fn whose
param_modes are all explicit (Borrow or Own, no Implicit), tracks
each binder's consume/borrow state through the AST, and emits
two diagnostics with form-A `suggested_rewrites`:

- `use-after-consume` — a binder is referenced after it has
  already been consumed.
- `consume-while-borrowed` — a binder is consumed while a borrow
  of it is still live (sibling arg slot, or an enclosing-fn
  Borrow param).

Fns with any Implicit param skip the check entirely; that's the
back-compat lane that keeps every existing fixture green. Pure
diagnostic addition: no IR change, no codegen change, no runtime
change.

Each diagnostic carries a non-empty `suggested_rewrites` whose
`replacement` is form-A AILang text (typically `(clone <name>)`).
Adds two new public entrypoints to ailang-surface — `parse_term`
and `term_to_form_a` — so the round-trip
`parse_term(term_to_form_a(t)) ≡ t` is the contract every
emitted replacement must satisfy. Tests assert the contract.

Linearity pass runs only on modules that typechecked clean (any
upstream typecheck error suppresses it for that module — running
on partly-defined IR would produce noise).

Tests: 3 unit tests in `linearity::tests`, 3 integration tests
in `ailang-check/tests/workspace.rs`, 1 serialisation test in
`diagnostic.rs`. `cargo test --workspace` green.

//! AILang authoring surface — form (A) S-expression projection.
//!
//! This crate is **one of potentially many** producers / consumers of
//! [`ailang_core::ast::Module`] values. The JSON-AST in `ailang-core`
//! remains the canonical, hashable, content-addressed source of truth;
//! form (A) is the AI-authoring projection optimised for token-efficient
//! production by LLMs (see `docs/DESIGN.md` Decision 6).
//!
//! ## Modules
//!
//! - [`mod@lex`] — hand-written lexer for the 3-rule lexical core
//! (whitespace / parens / comments delimit tokens; first character
//! classifies into integer / string / ident).
//! - [`mod@parse`] — hand-written recursive-descent parser. One Rust
//! function per EBNF production, line-by-line auditable. No
//! parser-combinator dependency.
//! - [`mod@print`] — deterministic pretty-printer that emits form (A).
//! Round-trip with the parser is the contract that gates the
//! surface (see the integration test `tests/round_trip.rs`).
//!
//! ## Round-trip contract
//!
//! For every well-formed [`ailang_core::ast::Module`] value `m`,
//! [`parse()`] applied to [`print()`]`(m)` produces a module whose
//! canonical JSON bytes equal those of `m`. This is enforced by the
//! integration test against every `examples/*.ail.json` fixture.
//!
//! ## Architectural pin
//!
//! No new AST nodes, no schema changes, no new hashable form.
//! `ailang-check` and `ailang-codegen` are projection-agnostic — they
//! consume `Module` values regardless of which front-end produced them.
