Types phase 3 — the option/result safety pair. result/ok/err/try shipped in
#46; this adds its companion option:
- some(v) -> option (present value; any i32-width scalar)
- none() -> option (empty; no magic -1 sentinel)
- is_some / is_none -> bool
- unwrap_or(o, fallback) -> int
A heap %Option = { i32 present, i32 value }, bare builtins guarded by find_fn
(a user fn of the same name still wins), gated by g_uses_option so unused
programs compile byte-identically — same idiom as result.
Wired: emit_call codegen + %Option decl (emit_decl) + g_uses_option (emit_core),
reseeded seed, vocabulary sync (header/JetBrains/TextMate), builtin docs +
inventory, and a self-asserting example (examples/library/optionresult.ludic +
feat_case). All suites green incl. golden renders byte-identical and the
bootstrap fixpoint.
Tagged-union enums (variant payloads + binding match + exhaustiveness) are the
deep type-system feature, split out to #56.
