Brummel c0668178bb Iter 16b.4: LetRec captures of match-arm pattern bindings
Flips the desugar's MatchArm-capture rejection from panic to defer.
The 16b.3 lift_letrecs pass already handled match-arm bindings via
type_check_pattern_for_lift (Pattern::Var, Pattern::Ctor with sub-
patterns, ctor-field substitution against scrutinee args), so this
iter is a single-line classification change in desugar plus the
fixture and tests that exercise it.

- desugar.rs: MatchArm classification now defers (same arm as
  LetBound); EnclosingLetRec panic remains for 16b.7.
- examples/local_rec_match_capture.{ailx,ail.json}: enclosing fn
  pattern-matches on Pair<Int,Int>, inner LetRec captures both
  match-arm bindings simultaneously. Lifts to
  loop$lr_0(i: Int, threshold: Int, n: Int) -> Int.
- e2e + check + desugar tests: 110 → 113 (+3).

First fixture lifting more than one capture; subst_call_with_extras
already handled it generically.

; Iter 16b.4 — LetRec captures of match-arm pattern bindings.
; `count_below(p)` takes a `Pair Int Int` (threshold, n), pattern-
; matches on `(MkPair threshold n)`, and inside that match arm runs
; a recursive helper `loop` that captures BOTH match-arm bindings
; (`threshold` and `n`) and counts how many integers in 1..=n are
; strictly less than `threshold`.
;
; The 16b.2/16b.3 desugar passes cannot lift this LetRec — both
; `threshold` and `n` are bound by a `Pattern::Ctor` Var sub-
; pattern (`ScopeEntry::MatchArm`). Before 16b.4 this panicked at
; desugar time. Now the desugar pass leaves the LetRec in place;
; the post-typecheck `lift_letrecs` pass walks the enclosing match,
; resolves each pattern binding's type via constructor-field
; substitution against the matched ctor's declared field types
; (here: `Pair Int Int`'s ctor `MkPair` has fields `[Int, Int]`,
; and the scrutinee's `Type::Con.args` are also `[Int, Int]`, so
; substitution is a no-op and both bindings get type `Int`), and
; lifts to `loop$lr_0(i: Int, threshold: Int, n: Int) -> Int`.
;
; The match has a single ctor and no catch-all; the chain machinery
; treats the only arm as default-dominating since there's no `_`
; arm needed for an exhaustive single-ctor ADT (Pair has one ctor).
;
; Expected stdout (one per line):
; count_below(MkPair 10 0) = 0
; count_below(MkPair 10 5) = 5 (1..=5 all below 10)
; count_below(MkPair 10 15) = 9 (1..=9 below 10, 10..=15 not)
