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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| fn-string | string | builtins | builtin | string | string(x) -> string | Convert an int, bool, or fixed value to text; a string passes through unchanged. | 1 |
Converts a value to its textual form: an int, bool, or fixed becomes a string, and a value that is already a string is returned unchanged. This is what backtick {…}string yourself. Reach for the explicit form when you need to store or pass around the text, or build a string in pieces. The result can be printed, drawn with Screen.draw_text, or concatenated.
Parameters:
x— the value to convert to text
program LabelValue {
var score: int = 250
handler ReportScore phase Start {
let label = string(score)
print(label)
}
