/**
 * statum-binding.js — client-side variables for Statum pages.
 *
 * Load position: after statum-core.js and statum-document.js. This module
 * and statum-markdown.js are order-independent and need not co-exist.
 *
 * ES5-style, zero dependencies, guarded IIFE. Attributes:
 *
 *   stm-global-{name}="expr"              page-wide variable, usable in any
 *                                         expression anywhere on the page
 *   stm-global-{name}-from-{attribute}    page-wide variable sourced from an
 *                                         element attribute; changes to that
 *                                         attribute trigger a redraw
 *   stm-local-{name}="expr"               subtree-scoped variable (element +
 *                                         descendants); supersedes
 *                                         stm-def-{name}-as (kept as an
 *                                         obsolescent alias, see below)
 *   stm-local-{name}-from-{attribute}     subtree-scoped attribute-sourced
 *                                         variable; changes trigger a redraw
 *   stm-declare-{name}                    declares {name} for a subtree so a
 *                                         descendant can bind it and SIBLINGS
 *                                         of that binder can read it
 *
 * The legacy `stm-def-{name}-as="expr"` spelling (the pre-binding-module
 * form, still emitted by older templates) is accepted as an exact alias of
 * `stm-local-{name}` and logs a one-time obsolescence warning per element.
 *
 * Semantics (operator-confirmed):
 * - LAZY-CACHED: a binding's expression evaluates at most once per render
 *   pass, only when something reads the variable; the result is cached for
 *   the pass and the cache resets each pass.
 * - CYCLES are an error, not a crash: re-entrant evaluation of the SAME
 *   binding logs '[statum] variable cycle: a → b → a' (variable names) and
 *   the variable reads as undefined for that pass. Distinct bindings that
 *   shadow a name are not cycles (an inner `x` may reference an outer `x`).
 * - `from-value` / `from-checked` on input/select/textarea read the live
 *   PROPERTY (not the attribute): an input/change listener updates the
 *   variable and calls renderAll() directly, per keystroke. Every other
 *   attribute name, and every non-form-control element, uses a
 *   MutationObserver.
 * - Redraw guard: an observed attribute change only redraws when the
 *   variable's derived value actually changed — the walk itself writes
 *   attributes (stm-attribute.*, hidden, data-stm-active) and a naive
 *   observer would loop forever.
 * - A stm-global is visible page-wide on the FIRST pass it is declared in,
 *   even at elements that precede its declaring element in document order
 *   (the pass-start sweep exposes lazy getters; each reader resolves the
 *   binding on demand, at most once per pass).
 * - Shadowing: a variable shadows slot types and outer variables with the
 *   same name inside its scope. Duplicate stm-global-{name}: last in
 *   document order wins, one console.warn per pass.
