Malte Ubl d5e42b049e Skip cycle collection for shapes whose self references are constructor-only
A reference edge that can only be stored while its owner is still under
construction points to an object that existed before the owner, so a heap
cycle made only of such edges is impossible. computeTraced now builds the
shape/union graph with per-edge mutability, finds strongly connected
components, and marks a component cycle-capable only if it holds an
intrinsic reference (closure, dyn, class value, caught, promise) or a
mutable internal edge; units that reach such a component stay traced. With
every edge mutable this is exactly the previous fixpoint.

Mutability comes from the final IR (cycle-mutability.ts), not from the TS
readonly modifier: every fieldSet outside a constructor's own this,
fieldIncDec, recordSet, recordKeySet and recordKeyDelete counts; a
constructor where this escapes (anything but a field store target, a field
read, or the receiver of the direct base constructor call, including
closure/class captures) makes its hierarchy mutable, as does any other call
of a constructor function; every type that can cross into checked-dynamic
code (dynFrom operands including boxed closure signatures, thrown values,
library/intrinsic/JSON/FFI arguments) is mutable with its whole type
closure, because typed-ref capsules commit dynamic writes into native
fields; runtime-rooted hierarchies stay mutable; library builds and
dynamic-island programs disable the refinement. Union arms are immutable
(boxes are), collection edges are always mutable.

New corpus programs pin the acyclic case (DAG sharing, a 200k-node chain,
derived constructors, records) and try to defeat the proof (constructor
escapes, readonly bypass through casts/mapped types/any/Reflect/aliases,
subclass rewrites, readonly arrays, untyped writes through capsules).
