Expand the abbreviated string type and its conversion builtin to the full
word everywhere:
str -> string (the immutable-string type)
str(x) -> str -> string(x) -> string (the stringify builtin;
what `{…}` interpolation calls)
Types are recognized by identifier, and llty maps both spellings to LLVM
`ptr`, so this is an atomic source rewrite: type annotations, the Ludic
type tags, the builtin name/dispatch, and the interpolation desugar, plus
the grammars, LSP, docs (type-str -> type-string, fn-str -> fn-string), and
inventory. int/bool stay (universally accepted, like Math).
Reseeded; C-free fixpoint holds; all suites green (45/24/29); site + check.py OK.

| text-starts_with | Text.starts_with | text | namespace-method | Text.starts_with | Text.starts_with(s, prefix) -> bool | Whether a string begins with a given prefix. | 3 | Text | starts_with |
Returns true when s begins with prefix, comparing byte for byte over the length of the prefix. An empty prefix always matches. Use it to route commands ("/help ..."), recognize a tag, or branch on a filename extension without slicing first.
Parameters:
s— the string to testprefix— the leading substring to look for
program Command {
var input: string = "/say hello"
handler Parse phase Update {
if Text.starts_with(input, "/say ") {
let msg = Text.slice(input, 5, Text.length(input))
}
}
}
