fix(ILO-468): type-check braceless-guard tail value against declared return

[danieljohnmorris]

Summary

A braceless guard cond expr early-returns expr, but the verifier only checked the function body's last statement against the declared return type. When a guard's tail value had the wrong type and was followed by a type-correct fallback, the mismatch slipped through silently.

The repro that motivated this:

pred q:t>b;=q "" 1;false

At runtime pred "" returned the number 1. Passing pred to flt produced an empty result with zero warnings — flt got non-bool predicates and silently filtered everything out.

Fix

In verify_stmt for Stmt::Guard { braceless: true, .. }, compare the guard body's value type against the enclosing function's declared return type (via self.functions[func].return_type) and emit ILO-T008 on mismatch. The inline-lambda case (synthetic __lit_N function) is covered by the same code path.

No implicit coercion. Surfaces the mismatch as an error at the guard tail's span.

Changes

• src/verify.rs: new check at the Stmt::Guard arm; 5 new regression tests.
• SPEC.md: row in cross-language gotchas table.
• ai.txt: regenerated from SPEC by build.rs.

Test plan

• cargo test --features cranelift,http,golden --lib passes (3510 tests, 0 failures).
• New tests ilo468_braceless_guard_tail_wrong_type_named_fn and _inline_lambda fire ILO-T008.
• New tests ilo468_braceless_guard_tail_matching_type_ok, _negated_matching_type_ok, _number_return_ok verify cleanly.
• Manual ilo check on the repro confirms a clear diagnostic at the guard tail.

Closes ILO-468
