parse: Phase 7 — type breadth, conversions, suffix-typed literals
- lex_next now sets TF_INT_U/L/LL on TOK_NUM and TF_FLT_F/L on TOK_FLT;
the flags existed but were never populated.
- parse: int_literal_type / float_literal_type pick TY_* from the
suffix flags; parse_float_literal decodes decimal+hex pp-numbers
without a libc dep.
- parse: coerce_top_to_lvalue runs cg_convert before cg_store at
simple-assign and init scalar paths so int↔float assignments emit
the right SCVTF/FCVTZS instead of bit-level miscompiles.
- cg_convert: same-size int↔int reinterprets retag the SValue instead
of routing to the aarch64 same-class CV_BITCAST (which only knows
cross-class FP↔INT).
- cg_push_float / cg_convert panic loudly on TY_LDOUBLE pending
binary128 wiring through rt/lib/fp_tf (__floatsitf, __fixtfsi,
__extenddftf2, __trunctfdf2, __addtf3, ...). Corpus row
6_7_2_12_long_double carries a .skip sidecar pointing at the rt
directory.
Unlocks: 6_3_1_3_01-02, 6_3_1_4_01-02, 6_7_2_04, 6_7_2_10-11.

+
+Phase 7 also added:
+ - `lex_next` (lex.c) now scans the suffix on a pp-number and sets
+ `TF_INT_U` / `TF_INT_L` / `TF_INT_LL` on TOK_NUM and `TF_FLT_F` /
+ `TF_FLT_L` on TOK_FLT. The flags existed before but were never
+ populated; the parser was the first consumer that needed them.
+ - `int_literal_type` and `float_literal_type` in `parse.c`: pick the
+ `Type*` for a numeric literal from its TF_INT_* / TF_FLT_* suffix
+ flags. `parse_primary` now routes both TOK_NUM and TOK_FLT through
+ these so an `unsigned`/`long`/`float` literal lands on the value
+ stack already wearing its declared C type instead of `int`.
+ - `parse_float_literal` decodes decimal and hex pp-numbers into a
+ `double` without a libc dependency. The value is funneled through
+ `cg_push_float`, which materializes a typed constant via the
+ backend's `load_const` (no FP literal pool primitive needed in cg).
+ - `coerce_top_to_lvalue` is the parser's §6.5.16.1 implicit-conversion
+ helper: when the rvalue at top of stack and the lvalue beneath it
+ have different arithmetic types, it issues `cg_convert(dst)` so the
+ backend emits the right SCVTF / FCVTZS / SEXT / TRUNC step instead
+ of treating the bits as same-class. Wired into the simple-assignment
+ path in `parse_assign_expr`, the scalar-init path in `init_at`, and
+ the non-aggregate branch of `parse_init_declarator`.
+ - `cg_convert` now treats same-size integer reinterprets (e.g.
+ `(unsigned)int_value`, `int x = 42U;`) as a no-op retag rather than
+ routing to `CV_BITCAST`. The aarch64 backend only knows how to
+ BITCAST between INT and FP register classes; same-class GPR-GPR
+ reinterprets have identical bit patterns and don't need an
+ instruction. The retag preserves the SValue's existing storage and
+ avoids the destination-register allocation cost.
+
+Long double status: TF_FLT_L lexes correctly and `float_literal_type`
+returns `TY_LDOUBLE`, but `cg_push_float` and `cg_convert` panic with a
+clear "needs rt soft-float wiring (rt/lib/fp_tf)" diagnostic when asked
+to lower a binary128 value. The runtime helpers exist already
+(`__floatsitf`, `__fixtfsi`, `__extenddftf2`, `__trunctfdf2`,
+`__addtf3`/etc. under `rt/lib/fp_tf/`); cg just needs to route TY_LDOUBLE
+ops through external calls instead of the inline FP path. Corpus row
+`6_7_2_12_long_double` carries a `.skip` sidecar pending that wiring
+(treated as a hard failure unless `CFREE_TEST_ALLOW_SKIP=1`).
+
+Unlocks (status as landed): `6_3_1_3_01–02` ★, `6_3_1_4_01–02` ★,
+`6_7_2_04` ★, `6_7_2_10–12` ★. The remaining `6_7_2_*` rows already
+landed under earlier phases that exercised the same int width through a
+different path; Phase 7 just promotes the literal types so the
+declarations would round-trip through the new typed-literal path even
+without an implicit conversion at store time.
