Orkuncakilkaya df6955e609 Phase 7g: the compiler builds its IR with interpolation, not +
Answering your readability point directly: the compiler's own string-building —
left uglier by the 7c `+` migration, e.g. `emit_bind(("load i32, ptr " + ip))` —
now reads as interpolation:

  emit_bind(("load i32, ptr " + ip))            -> emit_bind(`load i32, ptr {ip}`)
  emit_bind(("icmp eq i32 " + (kv + (", " + itoa(ak)))))
                                                -> emit_bind(`icmp eq i32 {kv}, {itoa(ak)}`)
  perr(("assign to unknown " + t.s))            -> perr(`assign to unknown {t.s}`)

164 concat chains across selfhost converted by a tool that flattens the `+` tree,
keeps call/index parens (only grouping parens are rewritten), and converts only
**brace-free** literals — LLVM IR structure strings full of `{`/`}` stay as `+`
rather than becoming awkward `{{`/`}}`. No new language surface; interpolation
already desugars to the same concat.

Reseeded (22565 lines); C-free fixpoint holds byte-for-byte (the strongest proof
the reconstruction is exact); goldens identical; 18/18.
