refactor(lang): rename the ptr/ptrs types to pointer/pointers

Expand the abbreviated pointer types to full words on the language surface:
  ptr   ->  pointer     (a raw address / FFI handle)
  ptrs  ->  pointers    (a buffer of pointers)

The Ludic type name is distinct from LLVM's own `ptr` spelling: llty() maps
`pointer`/`pointers` to LLVM `ptr`, and the emitted IR keeps `ptr`, so only
the Ludic-level surface changes. Rewrites type annotations across all
sources, the 8 hardcoded pointer type-tags, the `pointers`-buffer indexing
in emit_addr, the grammars/LSP/JetBrains tokens, and the docs
(type-ptr -> type-pointer, type-ptrs -> type-pointers). int/bool keep their
conventional short spelling (like Math).

Reseeded; C-free fixpoint holds; all suites green (45/24/29); site + check.py OK.

@ -9,7 +9,7 @@ tip: Bind a name to an external native symbol — the seam for platform and libr
order: 12
---
An <code>extern function</code> declares a function whose body lives outside Ludic and binds it to a native symbol resolved at link time. It is the seam through which Ludic reaches anything with a native interface — a system library, a math routine, or even another `.ludic` file compiled as a `module`. You write the Ludic signature you want to call and give the real symbol name after `=`; the linker connects them (pass `-L`/`-l` to `ludicc` to point at the library). Types must match the foreign ABI, so map each parameter and the return to the right Ludic type (`int`, `fixed`, `ptr`, …).
