Refs #72.
Scope
Promote the AArch64 binary128 transport prototype into production code for base AAPCS64 targets.
This PR now supports scalar IEEE binary128 (
long double) transport through:The implementation is slot-backed inside MIR and bridges the complete 16-byte image only at ABI boundaries. Canonical validation now defines the exact two-limb binary128 constant representation.
Deliberate exclusions
This is an independently useful prerequisite for #72, not full binary128 language support. Arithmetic, comparisons, truth conversion, unary operations other than constant sign toggling, general conversions, aggregates containing binary128, and variadic binary128 parameters retain their existing structured rejection. Issue #72 remains open.
Validation
blr, and aligned ninth-argument stack spill;
