Brummel d5f63bc3e5 Iter 16b.2 — LetRec captures of fn-params (path-1 safe subset)
Lift 16b.1's no-capture restriction. The desugar pass's `scope`
becomes a `BTreeMap<String, ScopeEntry>` carrying `KnownType` for
fn/Lam-params, sentinels for Let-/Match-bindings. LetRec captures
of `KnownType` names are lifted: the synthetic top-level fn's
signature gets the capture types appended, and every call site of
the LetRec name is rewritten via `subst_call_with_extras` to pass
the captures positionally. Captures from let-bindings, match-arm
patterns, polymorphic enclosing fns, and name-as-value uses are
rejected at desugar with panics pointing at 16b.3-16b.7.

Demo: `sum_below(n)` recurses via `(let-rec loop (params i) ...
(body ... uses n ...) (in (app loop 1)))`. Lifts to
`loop$lr_0(i: Int, n: Int) -> Int` with `(app loop X)` rewritten
to `(app loop$lr_0 X n)`. Outputs 0, 10, 45.

Tests: 103 -> 106 (+1 e2e local_rec_capture_demo, +2 desugar unit;
the 16b.1 capture-panic test was repurposed into the positive
fn-param-capture test).
