Brummel 1b2d23ec42 fieldtest: raw-buf comprehensive — 4 examples, 8 findings (refs #7)
Comprehensive usability re-test of the RawBuf kernel extension in
natural LLM-author decompositions the prior field test (0058) did not
exercise: a Float RawBuf in a user ADT read through two borrow helpers,
a Bool flag buffer filled with a computed value, an Int fib buffer whose
fill reads its own writes plus two composed borrow summaries, and a
forbidden core-primitive element. All three working fixtures build, run
to expected values, and report live=0 across Float/Bool/Int widths —
the core RawBuf surface (borrow-helper composition, fill loops,
RawBuf-in-ADT, element widths) genuinely holds together.

Orchestrator triage corrected the fieldtester's run, which executed a
stale target/release/ail (built before the #50 fix). Every outcome was
re-verified against a fresh build:

- F2 (bare RawBuf ADT field unresolved) — RETRACTED: a stale-binary
  false positive. On a fresh build the bare name resolves in every
  configuration (ctor name == or != type name; builds/runs live=0). The
  #50 fix is correct and general.
- F7 (NEW, issue #51) — a `check`-clean program crashes `build`: a
  buffer whose element type is never observed by a later get/set
  defaults its element to Unit in monomorphisation and hits an
  unregistered `RawBuf_new__Unit` intercept. Affects a legitimate
  `RawBuf<Int>` used only for its size AND a forbidden locally-
  constructed element. Root: the `(new T ...)` desugar drops the
  explicit element annotation; honouring it reverses the milestone's
  § Term::New desugar decision, so it routes through brainstorm.
- F8 (process) — the field test ran stale; the fieldtester agent now
  builds from the current tree before running (plugin fix).

F1 (spec_gap) resolved here: the design ledger's §Series substrate ctor
wrote the storage field `(own (RawBuf a))`, which does not parse (`own`
is fn-param/ret only). Rewritten to the verified-authorable `(con RawBuf
a)`. The rest of the §Series listing is illustrative and its element-
less `(new RawBuf lookback)` construction is entangled with #51; a full
compile-verification of that listing belongs with the Series-substrate
work.

F5 (param-in rejects a forbidden core primitive, message names the set)
and F4/F3 (borrow composition; substrate composite) carry on. F6
(param-in set rendered as a Rust-debug list) filed as #52.

; Fieldtest raw-buf comprehensive .2 (Axes 1+2+3 — Bool element width
; through a fill loop, then counted via a borrow helper).
;
; Task an LLM author is naturally given: "mark which of the numbers
; 0..N are even in a flag buffer, then count how many flags are set."
; A flat Bool RawBuf is the natural storage for a flag/bitset array.
;
; The prior field test only stored a single Bool at a literal index
; (rawbuf_3_sensor_pair). This drives the i1/i8 Bool packing edge
; through a (loop ...)/recur FILL of runtime length N (one RawBuf.set
; per slot, the stored value being a *computed* Bool — the result of
; `eq (i % 2) 0`), and reads the flags back through a `borrow` helper
; (`count_set`) that drives off RawBuf.size and accumulates an Int.
;
; This stresses:
; - Bool stored/loaded across a loop, not a literal set — does the
; i1/i8 round-trip hold when the value is computed, not a `true`
; literal?
; - A borrow-receiver helper over a Bool buffer (the #46 fix on the
; Bool width).
; - `RawBuf.get` of a Bool used directly as an `if` condition inside
; the count loop.
;
; N = 6 -> flags for 0,1,2,3,4,5 -> even at 0,2,4 -> 3 set.
; Expected stdout: "3".
