Phase T7: full switch-over to the self-hosted toolchain

Makefile now builds toolchain/{as,cc,ld} with host gcc once (bootstrap
only) and uses them for every kernel and host-tool source file after
that — no gcc/nasm/ld/objcopy anywhere in the OS build path. Verified
via a fresh make clean && make: tools/run_tests.sh and
tools/run_toolchain_tests.sh both green.

Getting there surfaced a long tail of real bugs, each found by actually
booting/running previously-untested code paths through the new
toolchain, not by inspection:

AS (encoding):
- lgdt/lidt missing the general register-indirect (32-bit) form
- far jmp always emitted a 16-bit offset in 32-bit code
- in ax,dx / out dx,ax missing the 0x66 operand-size prefix, silently
  draining two 16-bit port words per access instead of one — root
  cause of tinyfs superblock corruption
- movzx r32,r16 (reg-to-reg) had a spurious 0x66 prefix, downgrading
  it to a near no-op
- missing 32-bit mov r16,r/m16 / r/m16,r16 forms
- MAX_STMTS/MAX_SYMS/MAX_RELOCS too small for struct-copy codegen

CC (codegen/parser/lexer):
- walk_collect's extern-dedup fix corrupted an in-progress is_local
  scan; replaced with a proper skip_next parameter
- indirect-call sites mis-treated as extern function-name references
- file-scope static variables/functions had no internal linkage
- switch/case/default and the comma operator were unimplemented
- self-referential and forward-declared struct tags didn't resolve
- function-pointer parameters weren't parsed
- no 16-bit load/store support (uint16_t writes clobbered neighbors)
- T name[] = {...} never inferred array_len from its initializer —
  root cause of keyboard input being silently discarded entirely
- struct/union by-value copy, return (hidden-pointer ABI), and
  parameter passing were all unsupported — corrupted parser
  backtracking state and script-language value construction
- read_escape had no case for \b (also \f/\v/\a): '\b' lexed to the
  letter 'b', turning every typed 'b' in a shell command into a
  backspace keypress

Full writeup in docs/toolchain.md's "Full switch-over (Phase T7)"
section. Ten new regression tests added (tests/toolchain/t06–t15),
one per bug class; run_toolchain_tests.sh's EXPECTED table extended
to match.

# Phase T8: the self-hosting bootstrap. Builds AS/CC/LD from source three

# used here), Stage2 by compiling the exact same source with Stage1, and
# Stage3 by compiling it again with Stage2 - and requires Stage2 and
# Stage3 to be byte-identical. That fixed point is the standard GCC/LLVM
# proof that a compiler genuinely compiles itself, rather than having
# merely been *compiled once* by something else that happened to tolerate
# its source. See docs/toolchain.md.

# On success, installs Stage2 (== Stage3) at $BUILD/toolchain/{as,cc,ld} -

- ## Bootstrap
- 
- _To be filled in once Phase T8 lands: the Stage0/1/2/3 procedure and how
+ ## Bootstrap (Phase T8 - self-hosting)
+ 
+ `tools/bootstrap_selfhost.sh` is the whole procedure, and it's what the
+ Makefile's `$(BUILD)/toolchain/{as,cc,ld}` rule actually runs:
+ 
+ 1. **Stage1**: the host's real compiler (`BOOTSTRAP_CC`, `gcc` by
+    default - its only invocation anywhere in the build) compiles
+    `toolchain/{as,cc,ld}`'s source directly, the same one-shot build
+    Phase T7 already did.
+ 2. **Stage2**: Stage1's own `cc`/`as`/`ld` compile that *exact same
+    source* - including `toolchain/hostlib/`, see below - into a second
+    set of binaries.
+ 3. **Stage3**: Stage2 compiles the same source a third time.
+ 4. **Verify**: Stage2 and Stage3 must be byte-identical (`cmp`) for all
+    three tools. This is the standard GCC/LLVM fixed-point proof that a
+    compiler genuinely compiles itself, not just "happened to survive
+    being compiled once by something that tolerated its source."
+ 
+ On success, Stage2 (== Stage3) is installed at `$(BUILD)/toolchain/
+ {as,cc,ld}` - the exact path `AS`/`CC`/`LD` already pointed at since
+ Phase T7 - so every kernel, boot-loader, and host-tool build after this
+ one is genuinely self-hosted, not merely bootstrapped by an external
+ compiler once and then reused.
+ 
+ ### hostlib: a minimal libc for AS/CC/LD's own source
+ 
+ Phase T7's builtins (`__sys_open`/`read`/`write`/`lseek`/`close`/`exit`)
+ were enough for `mkfs_tinyfs`, which was already deliberately written
+ libc-free. `toolchain/{as,cc,ld}`'s own source was never written that
+ way - it uses ordinary `fopen`/`fprintf`/`malloc`/`strcmp`/`isdigit`
+ freely, same as any normal C program compiled by a normal compiler. Two
+ new builtins (`__sys_brk`, `__sys_chmod`) plus `toolchain/hostlib/`
+ (compiled into every `--target=host` binary alongside the program's own
+ object files) implement just enough of `stdio.h`/`stdlib.h`/`string.h`/
+ `ctype.h`/`sys/stat.h` to cover what that source actually calls:
+ unbuffered `FILE*` I/O over the raw syscalls, a bump allocator over
+ `brk(2)` (no `free()` - these are short-lived, single-pass build tools,
+ same spirit as the rest of this codegen's "simple over optimal"
+ philosophy), and a `printf`-format subset (`%s %d %u %c`, the `+` flag,
+ `l`/`ll` length modifiers parsed and ignored - seen below, that's not a
+ shortcut, it's the only self-consistent choice once `int64_t` is a
+ 32-bit alias).
+ 
+ ### New CC features, needed only because CC now compiles *itself*
+ 
+ Two real language features, both invisible to every kernel/host-tool
+ build target until AS/CC/LD's own source went through CC for the first
+ time:
+ 
+ - **Variadic functions** (`fprintf(FILE*, const char*, ...)`, and
+   codegen.c's own `out(const char *fmt, ...)`): `...` in a parameter
+   list is now accepted (parser.c's `parse_param_list`) with no further
+   bookkeeping needed - call sites already push each argument
+   independently with no prototype-arity check (see
+   `codegen_call_or_builtin`), so a variadic call "just works" once
+   parsing tolerates the extra parameter marker. `va_start`/`va_arg`/
+   `va_end` aren't real functions (CC's preprocessor has no function-like
+   macros, and `va_arg`'s second argument is a type name, which no
+   ordinary call could accept) - they're parsed directly, like `sizeof`,
+   and desugar into ordinary pointer arithmetic on a `char*` (`va_list`):
+   `va_start(ap, last)` becomes `ap = (char*)&last + K`; `va_arg(ap, T)`
+   becomes `*(T*)((ap += K) - K)` (the compound-assign-then-subtract is
+   the only way to get "read the old value, then advance" as one
+   expression without a temporary), where `K` is `last`'s (or `T`'s)
+   4-byte-rounded size.
+ - **Multi-dimensional arrays** (`uint8_t sec_bytes[MAX_SECTIONS]
+   [65536]` in AS's own `as.h`): `parse_declarator`, `parse_type_name`,
+   and `parse_struct_members` all only handled one `[N]` group before,
+   silently either erroring or (worse, see below) nesting extra
+   dimensions in the wrong order. A shared `parse_array_dims` helper now
+   collects every `[N]` group and nests them correctly - the *first*
+   bracket is the outermost dimension, so it has to wrap a type built
+   from the trailing brackets inward, not the other way around.
+ 
+ ### Real bugs found
+ 
+ This phase's verification bar was explicitly two-tier: the toolchain
+ test battery (`tools/run_toolchain_tests.sh`, host-only, fast) had to
+ pass under full self-hosting, *and* the full OS boot/shell suite
+ (`tools/run_tests.sh`) had to keep passing against a disk image built
+ entirely by the self-hosted result. Both were needed - one bug below
+ was invisible to the first and only caught by the second. As with every
+ previous phase, each was found by something concrete actually failing
+ (a crash, a wrong exit code, a corrupted disk image), not by inspection:
+ 
+ - **`elf_format.h`'s `ELF32_ST_INFO`/`ELF32_R_SYM`/`ELF32_R_TYPE`/
+   `ELF32_R_INFO` were function-like macros**: CC's preprocessor only
+   ever supported object-like `#define` (a Phase T2 scoping decision,
+   never previously an issue since no *kernel* source used one) - the
+   first time AS's or LD's own `elf_format.h` went through CC, these
+   four failed to expand as calls at all. Converted to plain `static
+   inline` functions (already proven to parse fine elsewhere, e.g.
+   `cc.h`'s own `safe_strcpy`).
+ - **Three compound literals in AS's own source** (`(token_t){ .kind =
+   TK_EOF }` in `parser.c`, `(Elf32_Sym){0}` twice in `elf_writer.c`/
+   `link_flat.c`): compound literals were already known-unsupported
+   (Phase T3's compound-literal refactor covered `kernel/` and `tools/`,
+   but not `toolchain/` itself, since nothing had compiled `toolchain/`
+   through CC before). Replaced with `memset` + explicit field
+   assignment, the same pattern T3 established.
+ - **`parse_param_list`'s own array-parameter decay was wrong for 2+
+   dimensions** - and its own declaration, right there in `parser.c`, is
+   `char names[][MAX_NAME]`: the old code wrapped every `[N]` bracket
+   group in another `ptr_to()`, so `T x[][M]` decayed to `T**` instead of
+   the correct `T (*x)[M]` (only the *first*, unsized dimension decays to
+   a pointer - trailing dimensions stay real array dimensions of the
+   pointee). Every `names[n]` inside `parse_param_list` itself then
+   indexed by 4-byte pointer strides instead of `MAX_NAME`-byte array
+   strides, corrupting parser state on the very first call with a real
+   parameter - self-hosting is what first parsed this function's own
+   signature through CC instead of gcc.
+ - **`codegen_addr` had no case for a struct/union-returning `ND_CALL`**:
+   `line_peek(ln).kind` (member access directly on a struct-by-value
+   call's result, no intermediate variable) is a common, ordinary C
+   idiom that Phase T7's struct-return test coverage never happened to
+   exercise. Fixed by treating it like any other "address of a
+   struct-typed rvalue" (`codegen_call_or_builtin` already leaves that
+   address in `eax` on return, per its own established convention).
+ - **AS's `.bss` handling overflowed its own 64KB-per-section buffer**:
+   `.resb`'s pass-2 loop materialized real (zero) bytes into
+   `ctx->sec_bytes[SEC_BSS]` even though nothing ever reads them back
+   (both writers skip emitting `.bss` content, matching `SHT_NOBITS`
+   semantics) - fine for kernel-sized `.bss`, but AS's own `ctx` global
+   alone reserves ~20MB of `.bss`. Fixed by passing a `NULL` destination
+   for `.bss` statements in pass 2 (the same "dry-run, length-only" mode
+   pass 1 already uses), so only the *count* is ever tracked.
+ - **LD's `MAX_SYMS_PER_FILE`/`MAX_RELOCS_PER_FILE` (512) and
+   `MAX_OUT_SYMS` (2048) were too small**: `toolchain/as/encode.c`'s own
+   object file alone has 800+ symbols (mostly its many small static
+   encoding tables and helpers). Bumped generously (4096 / 4096 / 16384),
+   the same "just raise the fixed limit" fix already used repeatedly in
+   Phase T7.
+ - **A short/partial local brace-init left the rest of the aggregate as
+   stack garbage, not zero**: `line_t ln = {0};` for a 3-member struct
+   (one member a 32-element array) only initialized the *first* member;
+   the fix `parse_one_local_decl` already had for globals (a trailing
+   `resb` in `emit_data_bytes`) had no local-variable equivalent. This
+   one was the session's most confusing bug to trace: `ln.n` (an
+   uninitialized bounds counter) and the outer parse loop's "did we
+   reach real EOF" check both silently read garbage, sending AS's own
+   line-tokenizing loop into a multi-million-iteration spin that looked
+   like a hang, not a crash. Fixed with `codegen_zero_range`, a byte-loop
+   that zeroes the whole aggregate up front (redundant but harmless on
+   nested recursive calls) before the existing per-element/member
+   overlay runs.
+ - **A string-literal initializer for a *pointer-typed* struct field
+   emitted a null pointer, not a relocation**: `static const regdef_t
+   REGS[] = {{"al",R_AL,1}, ...}` (AS's own register table) - `emit_
+   scalar_bytes` used `v->num` for every non-`TY_CHAR` scalar, but an
+   `ND_STR` node never sets `->num` at all. `REGS[0].name` came out NULL,
+   and `strcmp(NULL, "ebp")` crashed on the very first register lookup.
+   Fixed by checking for `ND_STR` first and emitting `dd <label>` (a real
+   relocation to the string's own bytes) instead.
+ - **Pointer-minus-pointer (`s - ctx->syms`, elf_writer.c's own
+   array-position computation for a relocation's symbol index) was typed
+   and compiled as if it were pointer arithmetic, not an integer element
+   count**: `make_binop` labeled *any* `TK_MINUS` between two pointers as
+   itself pointer-typed, so `codegen_binop`'s pointer-arithmetic scaling
+   fired and **multiplied** one operand by the element size instead of
+   **dividing** the raw byte difference by it - `sym_elf_index[garbage]`
+   then read wildly out of bounds. Fixed with real `ptrdiff_t` support:
+   `make_binop` now types `ptr - ptr` as plain `int`, and `codegen_binop`
+   computes the byte difference and divides it by the element size (via
+   `idiv`) as its own explicit case, ahead of the general pointer-
+   arithmetic branch.
+ - **`chmod(path, 0755)` in `link_static_exec.c` silently used decimal
+   755, not octal 0755**: CC's numeric-literal lexer only ever recognized
+   a `0x` hex prefix, never a bare leading-zero octal one (never an issue
+   before - nothing in the kernel used octal literals). Every self-hosted-
+   built executable ended up with permission bits `1363` octal instead of
+   `755` (missing owner-read, among other things) - it happened to still
+   be *executable* by the OS (execute doesn't require read), so this was
+   a real, silent correctness bug that never actually broke a test.
+   Rewritten in decimal (493) with a comment explaining why.
+ - **AS's own `.dq` (8-byte data directive) computed its high 32 bits as
+   `v >> 32`, which silently becomes `v >> 0` under self-hosting**: not a
+   parsing bug at all - `int64_t` is CC's 32-bit alias (see stdint.h),
+   and x86's `SHR`/`SAR` mask a 32-bit operand's shift count to 5 bits,
+   so a *compiled* `v >> 32` is a no-op, not zero. `boot/boot.S`'s `dq 1`
+   (the disk-address-packet's starting-LBA field) came out as `0x0000000
+   100000001` instead of `1` - the boot sector still assembled and
+   linked without error, and every toolchain test still passed, since
+   none of them touch `dq` at all (only hand-written boot/stage2 assembly
+   does). Only running the *full* `tools/run_tests.sh` against a disk
+   image built end-to-end by the self-hosted toolchain caught this - the
+   kernel never got to print anything, because the boot sector's own INT
+   13h disk read (extended by that corrupted LBA) never loaded stage2 in
+   the first place. Fixed by writing the high word directly as a sign
+   extension (`v < 0 ? 0xFFFFFFFF : 0`) instead of a shift no self-hosted
+   build can trust.

+ Getting AS/CC/LD's own source to compile through CC at all (never
+ attempted before this phase - Phase T7 only ever compiled *kernel* and
+ *host-tool* source with CC) required two real CC feature additions
+ (variadic functions/`va_start`/`va_arg`/`va_end`, and proper
+ multi-dimensional array support) plus a minimal libc
+ (`toolchain/hostlib/`, backed by two new builtins: `__sys_brk`,
+ `__sys_chmod`) for the `fopen`/`malloc`/`strcmp`-style code AS/CC/LD's
+ own source already used freely. Getting the *result* to actually build
+ a working OS surfaced eleven further real bugs across AS, CC, and LD -
+ including one (an 8-byte data-directive encoding bug in AS's own source)
+ invisible to the toolchain test battery entirely and only caught by
+ re-running the full `tools/run_tests.sh` OS boot/shell suite against a
+ disk image built end-to-end by the self-hosted result, exactly the
+ two-tier verification this phase's plan called for. Full list in
+ `docs/toolchain.md`'s "Bootstrap (Phase T8 - self-hosting)" section.
